Celtic: Fans slam New Balance appreciation tweet

The brand had been the manufacturer for the kits before the Scottish giants signed a deal with Adidas earlier in the week which, as a result, brought an end to the five-year partnership the two business had together; thought to be worth around £25m at the time (The42). The new deal with the German sports company, though, is expected to eclipse that (Sky Sports).
Celtic had called the business arrangement ‘wonderful‘, however it seems many of the club’s faithful would find it difficult to agree with that view and would call it something far more negative.
Indeed, many slammed New Balance for their time as the manufacturer, with plenty of them criticising the quality of some of the jerseys that were produced, whilst some mentioned that they had felt there were also some poor designs.
Here are just a few of their reactions to the announcement Celtic made on Twitter…
Show us how many of that hideous third kit was sold, and reimburse those poor customers for buying them in the first place.
