Tumshie RFC 0 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Hopefully we see more shops being opened. They should never have been shut in the first place. One of the worst deals Murray ever did was tying us into that JJB contract. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the worst deals Murray ever did was tying us into that JJB contract. Right, cause High Street retail is doing so well just now! I worry hindsight will prove Murray actually made a fairly shrewd deal with JJB. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Cooper 0 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Brand wise the JJB deal was horrendous for us but financial wise, it was probably pretty decent short term. £3m clear profit per annum was not bad. I do wonder if Celtic have ever made such a profit from just merchandising? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
amms 0 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 It's difficult to tell, certainly they've wanted rid of their Sauchiehall St store for a while now, it's in a terrible location. I've always seen an airport shop as an ego thing, I'm far from convinced it'll be profitable. Hopefully it'll be air-side at least. Ann Street is a secondary retail site too, Victoria Sq has helped that part of town but it's still not great. I'm surprised they didn't go for Connswater myself. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
