Celtic have delivered festive hampers to some of their corporate supporters.
Hampers containing a bottle of Mulled Wine, a jar of Cranberry Sauce, a selection of cheeses and Dark Chocolate Popcorn have been arriving at the homes of certain supporters.
At this time of year almost all companies like to reward and say thanks to regular customers, with 2020 being a year like no other keeping onside is more important than ever.
The running of Celtic this season has been a source of concern for many fans with some families/households faithfully buying season tickets at upto £2000 only to left watching a stream of action rather than taking their seats inside the ground.
There has been very little communication from the club to supporters other than the usual commercial emails urging them to show their support by buying Christmas Jumpers.
Season Ticket holders were promised ‘added value’ on their purchase but other than being able to look at the match programme online the only extras have been watching the Betfred Cup defeat from Ross County and the Europa League qualifier away to Riga free of charge.
Dissatisfaction with the running of the club has led to a surge in membership of the Celtic Trust who have been buying shares from their subscriptions.

Would be nice if we at least got a Christmas card @CelticFCSLO . I know we are just the mugs who pay for ST every year as well as buy merchandise and support the team all over Scotland and abroad.

Seen a lot of folk unhappy about the Celtic hamper. Some complaining there was no prawns & the caviar was absolutely tasteless. The Caciocavallo Podolico had slightly too much texture supposedly, but, the one positive was the soft aroma which surrounded the white alba truffle.
