Kerry Group has signed up again for another 3 year sponshorship deal with the county board and kerry teams.
Seems the new jersey will also be launched today.
Its great to have the kerry Group supporting the various teams in these difficult business times.
Thanks.

I'll support Kerry Group by buying Kerrygold butter and cheese only here in Germany as long as they support Kerry. See I'm already supporting Kerry Jobs form over here  And supporting our team in the same time

What a day to be a Kerryman!
A great Kerry institution still backing the best.
Was just on rebelgaa and there's calls for 02 to remove sponsorship. Its getting worse.
By the way Owenabue I did try to post comments but I'm blocked, matter is currently being changed I hoped.

Why should O2 walk away from Cork GAA? Your as confused as I am, people are forgetting that O2's sponsorship goes across the board not just to the hurlers. O2 may be looking at the situation of bad publicity at this stage, because unfortunately the only news we are hearing is all bad with regard the senior county teams.

O2 walking out on Cork GAA is the last thing they need at the moment. Hope O2 will keep their sense and keep supporting them. I'm more worried about counties with smaller sponsors since in economic hard times they might withdraw their support. Again that mostly affects the "weaker counties"

Why should O2 walk away from Cork GAA? Because to some people in Cork, it is seen as supporting a dictatorship. I assume that isn't good pr!

Its great to have the kerry Group supporting the various teams in these difficult business times. Thanks. €14.36 a share - not so difficult a time for Kerry Group. Agree with the sentiments though, the company have been fantastic for Kerry GAA. I'm sure a few fly by night companies came in with bigger money offers during the ol' Celtic Tiger Years but there seems to be a great relationship between Kerry roup and Kerry GAA.

And look how far the relationship has come from Denis Brosnan's state of the nation address at the start of the Golden Years video.
A prize for the first person that can quote some of that speech.

Well Arnotts have been with the Dubs for what seems like forever. Not sure of any other sponsors who have lasting links with county teams.

Great to see the sponsporship continuing . It has been beneficail to both parties . There is also something nice about having the name of the County on the jersey. Adds to the sense of identity in some way , as not a lot of other counties have it.
If memory serves me correctly, National Irish Bank sponsored the Dubs at some stage and Cork 's first sponsors were Barry's Tea.

continuation of support of Kerry Group is fantastic to see,
remember well the introduction to the Golden Years video with the whole 'we here at Kerry Group.....' speech, and wondering as a young fella what twas all about- ah the innocence

I think the Kerry Group have been the only sponsor Kerry have ever had, they have been there since sponsorships were allowed by the G.A.A. All other counties have had more than one sponsor in this time, including Dublin.

I think so too, but none to sure. There really is nothing better than to have Kerry Group supporting us is there? The name on the jersey.
