Albion business development manager, Paul Rogers, said, "We would like to thank Sue, Leo, Mikele, Stefano and all the Addis family for their continued support.

"Look out for the special discounts at the Donatello and Pinocchio restaurants in the city for Albion supporters."

The Addis family added, "Our new partnership with the Albion is all about the love of football and Italian food combining sport and healthy eating for the younger generation of our wonderful city."
