Stadium sponsorship

[edit ]

@IceHockeyHero: Do you have a source to confirm that the SO Legal stadium sponsorship has ended? [23] The citations in the article seem inconclusive. Barrow's website still calls it the SO Legal Stadium [24], though of course the season is not yet officially over and in any case football clubs don't always update their websites in a timely fashion. --Jameboy (talk) 12:16, 8 May 2024 (UTC) [reply ]
