A-PLANT, one of the UK’s leading equipment hire companies, has become Oldham Rugby League Club's main shirt sponsor for a third year.

The new deal was signed at the company’s Manchester North depot in Bury, when Roughyeds chairman Chris Hamilton shook hands with depot general manager Wayne Maddocks and his assistant Mike Humphreys.

Though self-confessed football fans, the pair have become interested in rugby league and Oldham over the past couple of seasons.

“We’ve developed an affinity with the club on our many enjoyable visits to Whitebank and we’re delighted to be main shirt sponsors for a third year,” said Maddocks.

“The club is working hard to make progress on and off the field and A-Plant wants to support that work and to be part of what the club is striving to achieve.”
