New Sports Memorial Themes

We have now been given permission from all the following clubs to use their crests on memorial themes and these have now been added today.

Football Clubs
Sunderland
Bradford City
Rangers
West Ham United
Wigan Athletic
Northampton Town
Rotherham United
Tranmere Rovers
Brentford
Accrington Stanley
Walsall
Bury
Burnley
Falkirk
Blackburn Rovers
Cheltenham Town
Motherwell
Hartlepool United
Wycombe Wanderers
Rochdale
Bristol Rovers
Carlisle United
Scunthorpe United
Ayr United
Blackpool
Leyton Orient
Inverness Caledonian Thistle

UK Rugby League Clubs
St Helens
Bradford Bulls
Castleford Tigers

The clubs that have sadly said no to allowing their crest to be used on a memorial theme are:
Chelsea
Manchester City
Portsmouth
Tottenham Hotspur
Leeds United
Dundee United
Hibernian
St Mirren
Ross County

If the club you are looking for doesn't have a theme at the moment and haven't said no (see list above), this means that although we have contacted them on at least 3 occasions, we have not received a reply, so it may be worthwhile contacting them directly yourselves, especially if your lost loved one was an avid fan. (This may work for the clubs that have said no - they may be willing to reconsider if the family of one of their fans contacts them.)

For those that don't have a theme for their chosen club, we have also added a generic Football & Rugby theme (along with a Golf one) which can be found in the 'Sports & Hobbies' category.

RE: New Sports Memorial Themes

If possible could you try for a Newcastle united theme please?? My partner and his family are avid supporters, would be nice if my son could have the theme on his memorial. Would make his daddys day.... Thanks =)
