Eastleigh FC rein in Bridle

Bridle Insurance is delighted to announce an agreement to become the new main sponsors of Eastleigh Football Club.

Eastleigh FC, affectionately known as “The Spitfires” are on the doorstep of our large Chandlers Ford centre and it seemed a natural fit for Bridle as we continue to enhance our south coast presence ever further. Following the success of our Oxford United sponsorship it seemed an ideal opportunity to become more closely involved with our local Hampshire club who play in the Blue Square Bet Conference South – just 2 steps down from the full Football League.

The club was founded in 1946 as Swaythling Athletic and in 1980 was renamed Eastleigh – some 11 years after Bridle themselves started in 1969.

The club have played at the Silverlake Stadium since 1957 and the ground’s record attendance is 3,191 for a friendly match against Southampton in July 2007. The club are managed by Ian Baird, the ex-Leeds United star and previous Eastleigh players include Southampton icons Matt Le Tissier and Francis Benali. Former managers include Southampton legends Jason Dodd and David Hughes.

Bridle very much look forward to supporting Eastleigh to success where we hope present leading players like Jamie Slabber and Damian Scannell will continue to grab the headlines.

We look forward to announcing more exciting Eastleigh Football Club developments as they happen.

Eastleigh 3-1 Newport County

EASTLEIGH V NEWPORT COUNTY MONDAY 12th MARCH 2007 Conference South So far so good, as Eastleigh pressed on with their busy schedule with a second comprehensive win in as many days. Yet another classy performance from the Spitfires saw them come out firing on all cylinders finding themselves two goals to the good in the blink of an eye, and just like they did in the Farnborough match at the weekend, they comfortably saw the game out. The only change from the winning side, saw Liam Green replace the injured David Hughes in the centre of midfield. Newport were panicking from the start with the excellent Steve Watts and Jamie Brown letting their presence be felt up the front, giving their opponents no time on the ball. The constant chasing down and pressure from the two Eastleigh forwards almost led to catastrophe in the third minute for Newport, as Stewart Edwards played across his own goal with his keeper missing the ball before it was eventually hacked away.
