Cotter 0 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 I know this has been discussed in the past but on ascending the escalator to departures at glasgow airport after a lovely visit home, I rather loudly exclaimed "fuckin sort it out rangers!" The Celtic supporting wife smirking away behind me. I feel pretty strongly about having a presence at the airport. I know we used to. What do you guys reckon? Has there been any mention of this by big Charlie at any stage? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
amms 0 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 It's an expensive place to have a shop, I'm not convinced it'd be profitable. Also if you are going to have a shop there have it on the 'air' side of security, that's where most people have to kill their time. I don't think we need physical shops anywhere but the stadium these days, let Sports Direct open one if it's that promising. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ian1964 10,444 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 It does get on my tits when I see the BHEAST shop every time I go up the stairs,makes me want to throw a brick through the window! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewarty 1,877 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Chuck has said many times that this was something he intended to address. I'm sure once the Sports Direct deal develops and opportunities arise, this is something that will be actively considered. Patience, fellow bears! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Sometimes you have to spend money on a loss making venture just in order to keep pace with your commercial rivals. Presence can change your public profile. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueflag 378 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Dont see why we should go running a shop at a loss just so we have one beside them.... Need to stop worrying about the green half and what there operations/retail operations are. If its not feasable i wouldnt take it. If it makes money ( which i know it wont because my old company have a place in a few airports ) then fair enough, but really dont see it being profitable. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missing the point somewhat, it's all about having a presence. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woudlnt call it missing the point,, would call it failing to agree with your point, ( or OP's point for that matter ) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GovanAllan 0 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Instead of opening a shop, why not buy some advertising telling people who the biggest club in the country is and put it right across from their cesspit shop. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
