Pitch Sponsorship
Derek’s Got His, What About You? - Become a Pitch Sponsor Now
Montrose FC are delighted to announce the opportunity for fans to become a sponsor of the hallowed Links Park turf. The existing artificial playing surface has come to the end of its natural life and in June this year, a new state of the art pitch will be laid.
The Club are offering fans the chance to sponsor a square of the new surface (approx 5m x 5m) for a one off price of £135. This will last for the lifetime of the surface, estimated at between 8-10 years. Each sponsor will receive a framed certificate, will have their name on an advertising board around the pitch and will be regularly featured in the match day programme. Additionally, sponsors will have the chance each season to win a free prize draw for Corporate Hospitality.
Chairman Derek Sim said, “This is a great opportunity for the people of Montrose to support what has become a very well used facility for the local community. In return they will see their name displayed around the ground, on our web site and regularly in our programmes. To commemorate the end of the Club’s 135th season we have set the price at £135 per square, which is less than £15 per year, and I am delighted to say we have already had a lot of interest.”
Squares will be allocated on a lucky draw basis but for those wishing to be more at the heart of the action, the 6 yard boxes can be sponsored separately at a cost of £1,350 each or if you want to be more spot on with your donation each of the 18 yard boxes can be sponsored at a cost of £3,135.
Remember, these are one off costs for the lifetime of the pitch, estimated at between 8-10 years and so represent extremely good value for money and an opportunity not to be missed.
The scheme will open on Saturday 7th March prior to the Montrose v Arbroath match and will be available thereafter by contacting the Club Office on 01674 673200 or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
Montrose Football Club’s troubled season continued at Borough Briggs on a Saturday, which despite a new management team, resulted in a heavy 4 - 0 defeat to Elgin City, which in conjunction with an away win for East Stirlingshire saw the Links Park side drop for the first time into the dreaded relegation play off place in League two. 
Montrose Football Club have appointed Dundee United legend Paul Hegarty as their new manager.
“Paul has a great stature in the game, brings a high level of management and coaching experience, a great knowledge of the game plus an enthusiasm which can only assist in the coming weeks of ensuring the club climbs the league.
Montrose Football Club wishes to confirm George Shields tendered his resignation following the 3-0 defeat by East Fife and the club will be seeking to appoint a new Team Manager as soon as possible.
