SCOTTISH rock band Mogwai have sponsored the football shirts of a primary school in Glasgow.
St Roch's primary school in Roystonhill has recieved several strips for the young pupils, branded with the bands name.
The school tweeted a photo of the new kit, saying "They look amazing. We can't thank you enough."

Stuart Braithwaite, Mogwai's guitarist, responded to say that he was "so happy about this."
The strips are turning out to be so popular that fans of the band have been asking if they come in adult sizes. St Roch's were quick to tell hopeful fans that, unfortunately, the kit was "exclusive to The Young Team of St Roch's Primary".
The band formed in 1995 and since then have released nine albums, including their first album Mogwai Young Team.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
