Super Furry Animals Sponsor Football Club

The Welsh indie-rock band Super Furry Animals have become shirt sponsors for Cwmbran Celtic, continuing their unusual connection with Welsh football. The band previously sponsored Cardiff City in 1999 during their Welsh Cup run, a move initiated by band members Gruff Rhys and Guto Pryce who are both Cardiff fans.

Cwmbran Celtic, recently relegated from Wales's second tier, holds a special connection to the band as it's where they send their stage props for repair. Given the band's history with giant inflatable bears, fans have jokingly suggested installing one in goal. chickenroadslot.lat
