The ground is now the OneBore Stadium under a naming rights deal with civil engineering company OneBore Tunnelling.

The new backers - described as a “complete trenchless solutions provider serving a diverse customer base across the utilities and infrastructure sectors” - have local headquarters opposite the stadium on Wheldon Road.

The ground had been known as The Jungle under various naming rights deals, but was previously without a title sponsor this season.

OneBore managing director Brian Sharkey said: “Having purchased the land directly opposite the ground as our new head office and yard we were looking to do something to support the local community.
