'green dull ties' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'sons maybe receiving company with crimson' is the wordplay.
'maybe' indicates an anagram.
'receiving' indicates putting letters inside.
'company' becomes 'co' (abbreviation).
'with crimson' becomes 'redraw' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'sons' with letters rearranged gives 'noss'.
'co'+'redraw'='coredraw'
'noss' placed around 'coredraw' is 'NO-SCORE DRAWS'.

'and' is the link.
