Southport Football Club is delighted to officially announce a new commercial partnership with Forshaws Chartered Accountants. As one of the most respected and long-standing professional firms in the region, Forshaws joins the club as an official Club Partner, further strengthening our ties with the local business community.
This partnership is a perfect match of two historic Southport institutions. While the Port has been the heartbeat of local sport for generations, Forshaws has been providing expert financial guidance to the town’s residents and businesses for over five decades. We are thrilled to welcome them to Haig Avenue.
When we look for partners at Southport FC, we look for businesses that share our values of hard work, reliability, and community spirit. Forshaws Chartered Accountants embodies all of these qualities. Founded in 1970, the firm has spent more than 50 years building a reputation for excellence from its well-known offices on Hoghton Street.
For any business or individual in Southport, the name Forshaws is synonymous with trust. Over the last half-century, they have navigated through various economic climates, always providing steady and professional advice to their clients.
Their deep roots in the town make this local football club sponsorship a natural fit. They aren’t just a business based in Southport; they are a part of the fabric of our community.
As part of this new agreement, fans will notice a brand-new football advertising board featuring the Forshaws branding prominently displayed at the stadium. This addition to our pitch-side inventory ensures that their message reaches thousands of supporters every match day, as well as the thousands more who follow our progress through highlights and social media coverage.
By placing an advertising board in a high-traffic area of the ground, Forshaws is ensuring that when our fans think about professional financial services, they think of a firm that supports their club. They are showing that they believe in the future of the town and the importance of having a thriving local football club.
In return, our supporters are famously loyal to the businesses that support the Port. We encourage all our fans and corporate guests who are looking for accountancy services, whether for personal tax returns or complex business auditing, to look no further than our partners on Hoghton Street.
A word from the Commercial Team

“We are absolutely delighted to welcome Forshaws Chartered Accountants as a Club Partner. It’s always a proud moment for us when a well-established Southport firm chooses to invest in the club. Forshaws has been a staple of Hoghton Street for over 50 years, and that kind of longevity is exactly what we admire. Their new advertising board looks fantastic, and we look forward to a long and successful relationship with their team.”
