Wolves boosted by new shirt deal

Wolves have received a major end of season boost with the announcement Chaucer Consulting has renewed its multi-million pound main club sponsorship deal.

The global consultancy business has been Wolves' main sponsor since May 2004 and has signed a new one-year contract until the end of season 2008-09.

Wolves chief executive, Jez Moxey said: "Bob Laslett and Chaucer have provided tremendous support to Wolves since becoming our main club sponsor four years ago.

"In addition to their financial investment, the company has provided expert help and advice to our business.

"Bob's invitation onto the board was unanimously supported by the directors.

"His extensive business experience, combined with his passion for the club as a fan, is already proving invaluable."

"We're delighted Chaucer and Bob Laslett are remaining on board as the club moves forward into a new and exciting era under the ownership of Steve Morgan."

Chaucer Consulting was set-up in 1987 by lifelong Wolves fan, Bob Laslett.

Since then the company has grown into an internationally renowned management consultancy with offices in North America, Europe, Middle East and the Asia-Pacific.

Laslett, who was appointed to the Wolves board of directors in January, said: "Chaucer Consulting is proud to be associated with such a wonderful club and I'm personally honoured to have been made a director."

Wolves' first and reserve team shirts will carry a new distinctive, yet familiar, Chaucer brand – chaucer consulting.com.

The newly designed home kit is due to be unveiled at the club's end of season awards dinner, sponsored by GCI coms, on Thursday at the Ramada hotel, Goldthorn.

Chaucer replaced Doritos as the club's main sponsor following relegation from the Premier League in 2004. The initial two-year deal was believed to have been worth around £2m to Wolves.
