Sponsorship income is harder and harder to find so securing an improved shirt deal, while others flap to secure lesser deals, is a genuine result for the Celtic commercial team. Irish cider maker, Magners, will have their name of the Celtic shirt for three years from this summer.
This will be the first time Celtic does not share the name on their shirts with another Scottish club since the 1990s, apart from a brief period during 2012, in the weeks between Rangers being assigned to liquidation and a successor coming into existence.
The significant amount of coverage outside Scotland as a result of this season’s Champions League qualification will no doubt have contributed to Magners’ decision, as will the reputation of Celtic fans to toast their Irish heritage in good nature.
Let’s hope club, fans and sponsor can work to make this a long and successful partnership.

Lucky man. I like both guys. Enjoy your night. :)
I spent a night in Glasgow, when Mendeita was at his height, with a guy from the Basque country and by the end of the night he was in tears talking about how great a player he was. Was very strange :)))

To me that reads as though we’ve won and the Board are just realising it,or making it known publicly at least.
And are now using the opportunity to level the playing field, I mean by sharing the wealth a little more evenly.
Just a thought, but I thought the huns did not do ‘walking away’?
2-0 Swansea

White lightning – this one strikes more than once

How great a player Mendeita was, that is, not my Basque buddy! :) He was very very drunk too, it has to be said. :))))
The club’s chief executive, Peter Lawwell,
admitted that Celtic would, initially at
least, lose out as a result but he insisted
that the proposed new system could not
even have been proposed to the 41 clubs
later this month without their
magnanimous gesture.
“In proportion the two top clubs, from
where we were, are giving up a
considerable amount,” he said.
“That’s not taking away from what the
other six are also giving up. In order to
get it done there is a change to the
distribution. Some would deem that
fairer.
“I would probably not call it fairer
because those who generate the value
should get the most but I think it’s a
recognition – certainly from Celtic – that
in order to get out of this gridlock we
need to in some way compromise in the
central revenue to get things moving
along.”
Asked whether he considered that a big
sacrifice, Lawwell replied: “It is, yes. [The
Magners sponsorship] certainly doesn’t
cover it, put it that way.”

………………….Well done Big Peter….
…..Cheers Celtic!
You’ve heard of Julius Ceasar and the great Napolean too, And how the Cork militia beat the Turks at Waterloo; But there’s a page of glory that as yet remains uncut, And that’s the warlike story of old Slattery’s Mounted Fut. This gallant corps was organised by Slattery and his son, A noble-hearted poacher with a double-breasted gun. And many a head was broken, aye, and many an eye was shot, When practising maneuvers in the Slattery’s Mounted Fut. Chorus And down from the mountains came the squadrons and platoons, Four-and-twenty fighting men and a couple of stout gossoons; When going into action held each musket by the butt, We sang this song and marched along, the Slattery’s mounted Fut. Well, first we reconnoitered ’round O’Sullivan’s Shabeen— It used to be a chop house but we called it the canteen; And there we saw a notice which the bravest heart unnerved: “All liquor must be settled for before the drink is served.” So on we marched, but soon again each warrior’s heart grew pale, For rising high in front of us we saw the county jail; And when the army faced about, ’twas just in time to find, A couple of stout policemen had surrounded us behind. Chorus And down from the mountains came the squadrons and platoons, Four-and-twenty fighting men and a couple of stout gossoons. When going into action held each musket by the butt We sang the song and marched along, the Slattery’s mounted fut.” “We’ll cross the ditch,” our leader cried, “and take the forward flank;” But yells of consternation here arose from every rank; For posted high upon a tree we very plainly saw: “Trespassers prosecuted, in accordance with the law.” “We’re foiled!” exclaimed bold Slattery, “here ends our grand campaign, ‘Tis merely throwing life away to face that raging drain; I’m not as bold as lions but I’m braver than a hen, And he that fights and runs away will live to fight again.” Chorus So back to the mountains went the squadrons and platoons, Four-and-twenty fighting men and a couple of stout gossoons. When going into action held each musket by the butt, We sang this song and marched along, the Slattery’s mounted Fut. We reached the mountains safely, though all stiff and sore with cramp. Each took a whet of whiskey straight to dissipate the damp; And when they loaded all their pipes, bold Slattery up and said: Today’s immortal fight will be remembered by the dead.” “I never shall forget,” said he, “while this brave heart shall beat, The eager way you followed when I headed the retreat. Ye preferred the soldier’s maxim, when desisting from the strife: ‘Best be a coward for five minutes than a dead man all your life.'” Chorus And back to the mountains came the squadrons and platoons, Four and twenty fighting men and a couple of stout gossoons, When going into action held each musket by the butt, We sang this song and marched along, the slattery’s mounted fut!

That’s fair enough. But are Celtic being compensated for years of being cheated? Maybe???!!!!!!!

like the EC Carpet.

1-1 Juve v AC Milan
Didn’t realise it was Coppa Italia – now into extra time.
ekbhoy,
Maybe the world being notified that hun2 have absolutely no control over their own destiny will give their new shareholders some idea how precarious a position their recent acquisitions are in. What number of shares are being supported ? 5M ? After 5M are sold the price will begin to fall, might no even be 5 could be 3 and its nearly 3 now :o)
Will this year be better than last ?
:oD)))
Oh dear London Huns lose 2-0 at home. Bad day all round.
A small team from Brazil called Varzeanos
FC, have stated that they were inspired by Celtic FC. Some display.

As someone said earlier, get mad or get even.
We will not get reparation.
I mean by the time Sevco are, or if Sevco ever are again a force in Scotland we will have reshaped the game to such an extent the SFA, blazers, masons or whoever would try to gerimander the leagues in their favour they will be impotent to do so.
That is what I am beginning to see in the reconstruction and by listening to PL today, reading AuldHeid and the Telegraph article.
Do I know that is the agenda, no, just my observations on what I read.
offski, night.

Don’t worry there are a load of muppets out there who can see a conspiracy anywhere! I am sure the Board will have slipped up somewhere on the deal, or not pushed enough to rename the South Stand….
On the football side, we became a team when Effe and Kelvin stood up to Spartak away , marvelleous … enjoying every second this year, even when we struggle!

Great result for Swansea but I wouldn`t rule Chelsea out of it.
Well that’s one full week with no alcohol. Three more to go.
All for a good cause. Cancer Research.
So no Magners for me yet.
