One of the biggest law firms in Wales, employing nearly 300 people mainly in their Head Office in Cardiff. Quite a success story in the industry given their relative youth.

Backing their local team, fair play.

Hello everyone, just a quick introduction. We are indeed a local law firm based in the city centre. We employ 290 people in Cardiff and most of us are City supporters. Our business has grown in Cardiff since we launched in 2004 and so it's important to us to give something back. We couldn't think of a better way to do that than by supporting the club, something that is already very close to the heart of our business.

We are honoured to have been given this opportunity and exceptionally proud to be associated with this great club. We are really looking forward to what we hope will be a promotion season and to building a long term association with CCFC.

Phil

It's definitely not just your imagination, there's a lot of exciting things happening. This is definitely a club that is building some really strong foundations. The football club is really well placed to go from strength to strength.

Naming rights are a given! Pretty sure that they have been offered to Langston a number of times as part of our offers to them. Personally, we don't have the depth of history with the ground like we did with Ninian so I'm not bothered at all if it because "The E Cosway Stadium" or something along them lines. With the financial fair play rules the way they are, it's a great way of bringing revenue into the club

Don't really care about the official stadium name.

Newcastle fans still call the SDA St James' Park.

Fans can call it what they want and keep it going. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Nice to know that local investment is occurring. :D

Where did I say I didn't expect them? I'm just saying I don't like it.. That's all. I am fully aware of the money it could potentially bring in.
