Mogwai sponsors Glasgow school football team

Mogwai has had always a deep passion for football and for Celtic Glasgow, one of the two teams of the city of which they are originating. Yesterday the Scottish band has announced the sponsorship of the St. Roch's primary school, a school for deaf people in Glasgow. Mogwai announced the partnership on Monday with pictures of the team proudly showing off their strips: one set of the stips in the school's dark and light blue and a separate "away" strip which is green and black. The band will also provide the school with the uniforms and materials necessary for the activities of the team, whose name used in social networks, "Young Team", refers to the title of their first album "Mogwai Young Team", released in 1997.

The school's post on Twitter prompted requests from some fans about the strips being available to buy in adult sizes, but St Roch's replied to say they were "exclusive to The Young Team of St Roch's Primary".
