St Johnstone drives off with new shirt sponsor

Scottish Premiership football club St Johnstone has agreed a shirt sponsorship deal with local car dealership Alan Storrar Cars.

The two parties have agreed an initial season-long deal, which will cover the 2016-17 campaign. The agreement includes the option for a further year.

Alan Storrar Cars’ branding will appear on the front of St Johnstone’s playing shirts as part of the deal. Club cars will also be supplied by the dealership.

“This is both a heart and head decision,” company owner Alan Storrar said. “We are a local company and have been involved with Saints for the last 10 years and we felt the timing was right for both us and the club to become the shirt sponsor.”

St Johnstone finished the 2015-16 Premiership season in fourth place.
