    We are delighted to announce a multi-year commercial partnership with Parliament.
    Founded in 2020, Parliament are an independent Visual Effects and Creative Studio, who leverage their legacy and experience to create new platforms and vehicles for creative ideas and execution.

    No clue as to what on earth they are or do.

    Only the back of shirt sponsor - not the main front of shirt one.

    A little more detail of what will be on the back. If name and/or number ordered.

    As modelled by new signing, James Norwood, the collar is a ribbed crew-neck design, accompanied with comfortable sleeve cuffs as you work down the arm. Much valued Club Partner, Parliament, will be emblazoned on the back of all first team shirts, with the British Red Cross logo also incorporated into squad numbers and lettering.

    What, you think the official club statement should have said ‘we googled them and they appear to be an American company that do advertising etc’? Funnier I suppose.

    They're basically an American advertising company but I'm sure one of the founders is a Barnsley lad and Barnsley fan which is why they sponsor us. Could have made that up though

    Tbf It's not just a plain advertising agency in the magazine sense. . They Create videos. With special effects. If you look online you'll see some of their work.

    In the statement the owner said they were a lifelong Barnsley fan and it was a long held ambition.

    I wonder if we don't get name/number, would it mean no Parliament then? Would look odd smack bang in the middle otherwise

    We should do that for all announcements.

    We are delighted to announce the signing of James Norwood. We Googled him and it looks like he's a forward as he's scored loads of goals and that. James Cryne reckons he's mint.

    your guess is as good as mine! Apparently they make videos and are involved in advertising. No clue as to why the company's called Parliament though!
