Scott's Transport Group has joined Maughan Thiem Ford and Pagel Glass as major sponsors for Port in 2007.

I hope Mr Scott doesn't come out and say "the Magpies will never win a flag under Timmy Ginevar!" :wink: :?

Wasn't Allan Scott supposed to be a Bays man?

Maybe it's because they're building all those apartments at the port.

Geez, not only do they steal their champion players and club administrators from other clubs, but their major sponsors as well :)

Scott Transport has never been a major sponsor of the bays, only ever a minor sponsor, especially to assist our work in the SE zone.

IIRC he was naming rights sponsor of Port Adelaide in the mid 90s -
