Andrew Mutch, healing VP of customer operations at Affinion, pilule said: “There has always been a great deal of support for the club within the company and becoming an official partner is a good way for us to demonstrate our ongoing commitment to Pompey, our people and the community in which we’re based. It’s great to be on board.”

Steve Jones, Pompey’s conference and banqueting sales and operations manager, said: “We’re delighted by the support Affinion International is providing the club during a very difficult time in its history and we’re looking forward to working with them throughout the rest of the season.”
