Halifax Town - Same sponsors for Shaymen
Halifax Town will retain their old sponsors when they play in the Unibond League.
It will be the third year of sponsorship from Grand Central but fans can expect to see a different logo next season.
The company has had a management shake-up and is no longer part of Fraser Eagle.
And, while Grand Central is the train operating arm, Grand Union is the company tasked with bringing new services to West Yorkshire and that company will appear on the shirts.
"But it will be from the same family of logo," said Grand Union Railway managing director Ian Yeowart.
Grand Union is also talking to transport services group Fraser Eagle on behalf of the club about additional sponsorship.
Fraser Eagle sponsored away travel last season and if it decides to continue with that the cost would be reduced as the reformed club would be playing in a regionalised northern league.
Mr Yeowart has met with consortium leaders David Bosomworth and Bobby Ham and was impressed.
"They are doing their best for the club," said Mr Yeowart.
"The guys have been very straight and it was good to meet with them.
"I think they are the right people to take the club forward.
"The club needs access to funds if it is to reach its rightful position."
Mr Yeowart's comments come from a qualified background.
He was involved with fans running Chesterfield Football Club.
After it hit financial difficulties he was appointed chairman of a co-opted board in 2001 and stepped down from the board the following year.
