The 2013 AJG Parcels Glasgow Celtic Society Cup Final between Inveraray and Kyles Athletic is a notable absentee from the list of scheduled televised matches. The Camanachd Association has not commented on this omission but it is believed that this year’s final has not been included because of a dispute between the Glasgow Celtic Society and the Camanachd Association. |
