The Review

FIFA 10 is the second version of the game to sponsor a football club. FIFA 10 is co-sponsor, with FourFourTwo, of English Football League One club Swindon Town.

The FIFA 10 logo appears on the front of the team’s away shirt and on the back of the home shirt. FIFA 07 sponsored Accrington Stanley for the 2007–08 season, with the FIFA 07 logo displayed on the back of the team’s shirts.
