As Jags fans may have spotted from our recent home kit reveal, we’re now delighted to announce that Specsavers are the new shorts sponsor of the men’s team for season 2023/24.
All at Firhill are thrilled to enhance our partnership with such a respected brand, building on a relationship which started with three local Specsavers stores last season.
The Specsavers logo will be on the front of the black shorts of the men’s home kit and soon to be unveiled away kit.
For the duration of this sponsorship, Specsavers will continue to offer specialist eye-care for all players in the men’s first team squad as well as discounts for the Thistle fanbase, available at selected stores. Specsavers in Kirkintilloch, Bishopbriggs, Trongate and on Byres Road are the four applicable stores which form the partnership with Partick Thistle for 2023/24.
Partick Thistle CEO Gerry Britton said: “It was fantastic to welcome Specsavers to Firhill last season, so to extend that for season 2023/24 in an enhanced partnership is even better news for the club. Going by early reaction to the new home kit, we’d expect to see those shorts featuring the Specsavers logo on beaches far and wide this summer.
“We’re very grateful to Neil Drain and the four local Specsavers stores engaged in the partnership. It’s pleasing for us that there is value for the fans too, with discounts at the four stores available to all Thistle fans.
All Specsavers stores are owned and run by local directors. As a keen Jags supporter, Neil Drain, director of the Bishopbriggs and Kirkintilloch stores, is proud to be partnering with his childhood club.
Neil says: ‘My father grew up just behind the stadium near Ruchill and so I’ve been coming here since I was yah high, and it is a pleasure to be able to offer something back to the club; players and fans alike – and it will be good to finally get Kinglsey a prescription too!”
