Scottish & Newcastle Deny Speculation

Brewers Scottish & Newcastle have denied reports claiming that they are in talks to be the sponsors of Swansea's brand new 20,000 all-seater stadium. Local newspapers had reported that the company was looking to sponsor the the new site under its John Smiths brand - a story that has now been slammed as "misleading" by the business itself.

Swansea council claim that they are in talks with a number of high profile business about advertising rights within the stadium and that sponsorship negotiations are continuing.
