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.

Again…….are they away yet?
am no coming out to play
till they’re away.
My guess is that the bold chuck was banking on 2 leagues of 16 being
brought in to enable sevco to reach the top tier a year sooner, I don’t
think any plans he had had them out the top league for so long

Reconstruction CSC
What about “The Magners Stadium” a wonderful opportunity to gain massive sponsorship ,before The Commonwealth Games.Go for it PL.
But they keep telling us they are happy playing where they are, and won’t play in the SPL?
Better get some more Ice!
After last years dodgy underhand dealings involving chuckles , the sfa , the spl and the sfl it is hard to accept that servco were not kept in the loop on the new plans. Would it have suited servco if the reconstruction had taken place the season after next ? Would that put them up the leagues quicker ?

Crazy Chuck was intending to raise SB prices for next season as a means of keeping the ship afloat until he can cash in his shares
That plan is in tatters now hence his hissy fit
i have no comment on newco statement its to dangerous, cue laughter on shortbread.
Alloa chairman on shortbread when asked about Sevco’s position on reconstruction. …. ‘ i won’t comment on Rankers , it’s too dangerous!’
Says it all about that poisonous club
gordybhoy64 18:45
That’s it in a nutshell. Didn’t one of the players they signed say that he was told they would be in the SPL in two years?
Bring out this years Schadenfreude, welcome to 2013 auld pal..
TMWTL,
I see now the reason for his tantrum, don’t see the bears forking
out for another season of gullibles travels ;-)
I thought greengo said he wouldn’t join the top league anyway, and they WANTED to remain in the lower leagues for 3 years…..they were quite happy….!!!……..what’s happened to change all that ……..money, eh, greengo..?
Looks to me like Chuckles is talking himself into irrelevance.
He offers nothing constructive, toys oot the pram stuff.
Good.
It also seems the reconstruction is an attempt to make Scottish football better, again good.
PL says it is the best on offer, not perfect, but don’t discard the best in pursuit of perfect, sensible.
Oh and a good news story or two for Celtic, so Chucky throws a wobbly and gets the headlines, good for him, that’s all he’s getting.
I like Magners.
Kojo my friend.
Nice one, puts a new slant on old Ditty,whit aboot, Charlie,is Ma Darlin, the man is Pure Dead Brilliant.

Can you check with local planning in the morning and see if we are opening a Superstore in Clonmel?

You heard correct – sevco are Associate Members and will have no SFL vote on reconstruction.
:-)
quonno
I guess East Belfast is a possibility. They would need to bring their own flags mind you!
Ten men
Great point re season books ( tickets or technically smart cards …. Naw hold on … Sevco smart cards … scratch that…. !!!!!!! Naw its no a scratch card either but the deadybears might be better off buying them instead )
Wonder if the sevcopaths will agree to pay the price rise despite playing the same ” friends” again next season along with the bottom teams from D2
Magners sponsors CFC and I’m off the drink, signed the (Kano 125) pledge.
So I’m sitting having a wee swally out of my Magners glass, diluted orange mmmmmm

Graham Spiers admitted as much on Twitter that Green is a “godsend” for the scottish MSM. I just find it amusing that they still so obviously want to get one up on us, especially on the day we announce a lucrative new sponsor. Their pain and envy is so transparent.
Should have said, Into an irrelevance
BBC…………..”Sevco won’t be voting on League reconstruction”
AndFailToMentionWhy CSC
In a few months Ole Spiersy will be telling us all how he knew Chuckney was a no gooder and how it`s for the best that his beloved team languish in the gutter ad infinitum..
Won`t you Gracie…you trollope…
So a day after Jabba solemnly telling the world that Sevco were “getting on with the job in hand”, Chuck shrieks to all and sundry about leaving the country.
Dignity, eh?
Vmhan –
I’m not off the drink although I am cutting down – I believe I pledged “no more that 3 days a fortnight” on Hogmany. However, I like your idea of using a Magners glass and so I’m joining you here with my diluting apple & blackcurrent – no added sugar!
Highland league president Hamhock Macphearson has offered Chuckles Green an option to join the northern league as an option ! “av seen some ov yer fellies oan ulster telly toneict who can hod a stick nae borra so changin to shinty shouldnae be a problem !
I can see a big lover’s tiff erupting between Fat Sally and Chucky very soon. Sally “doesn’t do walking away”, but that’s exactly what Chucky wants to do! Hmmmmm, who do we want to win that one?
I hope to God it’s Chucky!
Caller on SSB…….” I hear mr green is taking sevco out of Scotland….well, Celtic are a charitable Club, so we’ll pay their ‘ticket’ ” …… Brill….!!!!!!!!
It won’t happen for next season.
As far as I am aware, or have been informed from a QC, in a legal sence, I don’t think they can change the goal posts mid stream.
The season after next, even PL said today that he doesn’t think things should be rushed.
Mark Hately has just tweeted that Magners sponsorship deal with Celtic is like a new signing etc……..
jony the tim,
Think I’d like to see them both get their way… Ole Chuckles swanning off with a swagbag full of warchest dough, and wee fat Swally continuing with the tribute act tour round provincial Scotland for a few years. Preferably with an ever-dwindling band of acolytes. And Jabba forced to stick with them in order to earn an ever-more-humiliating crust…
Hail Hail!
Lately iv been drinkin the mexican beer desperados its nice as it has a dash of tequila which gives it a nice little kick.
Time to change to magners now.
However..Maybe iv found the perfect sponsor for Sevco?
bournesoup 19:02
And they will not be voting for the next 3 years
associatemembersonlyCSC
With Celtic announcing a deal with magners and the way pl keeps his cards close to his chest,thinking chuckles might have been led up the garden path by Celtic.
Huns are now in a very weak position
regarding a sponsor without us.
Chuckles rant may be partly because Celtic shafted him.hh
Has anyone told Chucky that him spouting about walking away from Scottish Football, on the day we celebrate a substantially high profile sponsor, can only augment and enhance our joy.
Bye bye then…

I wasn`t really paying much attention to restructuring but hopefully Mr Green will be as good as his word. Vote Yes!
