East Kent Jag II 81 Report post Posted December 23, 2020 I see the SPFL have signed a new two and a half year deal with The Lomond Group for Glen's vodka and some of their other brands to sponsor the leagues. Never heard of Glen's vodka. SPFL describe the drink as "The Spirit of the Scottish Professional Football League" Who thought up that mouthful? (Not the vodka.) Big deal is it? I thought football was moving away from alcohol and gambling sponsorship. Obviously not. I've seen nothing on the actual cash involved . Has anyone seen how much our esteemed SPFL £350,000 exec has signed us up for? Does it cover his salary? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reading that statement it seemed shambolic even by their standards, they clearly don't know or don't feel obliged to follow their own rules. Perhaps I've underestimated them again.

Sells well enough as a special offer vodka now that happy hours are outlawed. No doubt enjoys considerable invisible sales (decanted into the Smirnoff bottle) in the less scrupulously run premises. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Congratulations to N Doncaster for pulling off this coup. Yet again he has shown that he is tireless in his desire to ameliorate the standing of Scottish football. Without him, who knows where we would be today. Hooray! 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
