Johnstone's Paint Trophy is Oxford bound

The eagerly anticipated Johnstone’s Paint Trophy second round encounter between Oxford United and Swindon Town will have an extra attraction –the presence of the competition silverware.

The Johnstone’s Paint Trophy will be on display in the Manor Bar at the Kassam Stadium between 6pm and 7.30pm.

Supporters will be invited to have their picture taken with the trophy ahead of the game, which will see one team move into the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy Southern Area Quarter-Finals and within four games of Wembley.

As part of the tenth year of sponsorship of the Football League Trophy by Johnstone’s Paint, the trophy will be on tour throughout the season.

Richard Mazurkiewicz, marketing manager of Johnstone’s Paint, said: “We are delighted to be taking the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy to one of the most eagerly anticipated games of round two.

“It should provide fans with an extra pre-match attraction and we look forward to inviting supporters to have their picture taken with the trophy.

“We are extremely proud to have been sponsoring the competition for 10 years and we will be running a number of exciting initiatives to mark the landmark season.”

The nearest Johnstone’s Decorating Centre to the Kassam Stadium is based in the Cowley Business Centre on Wattington Road, OX4 6NH.

Johnstone’s Paint has been bringing colour to the beautiful game for 10 years through its sponsorship of the Football League Trophy.
