Bluedell 5,353 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I've always seen an airport shop as an ego thing, I'm far from convinced it'll be profitable. Absolutely. There's no way it will be profitable. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Cooper 0 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Air side or land side at Glasgow? Is it not next door to the Celtic shop i thought i read a few weeks back? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumshie RFC 0 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 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. Well if they want everyone to go online the club should be doing a helluva lot better. What's on offer on the official site is absolutely pathetic for a club the size of ours. I don't think we should be going back to the number of stores but I still think there is plenty of opportunities to put them in shopping centres in the right areas. The JJB deal was a disaster and I was delighted when we finally got out of it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The JJB deal was a disaster and I was delighted when we finally got out of it. In what way was the JJB deal a disaster? It looked like a pretty smart deal to me even at the time far less now with the carnage there's been on the High St of the last few years. Not having a good enough online offering isn't a great reason to open potentially loss making shops. How many shops have Man Utd got? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stimpy 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. I'm very sceptical of the location of the Belfast shop. Hopefully I'm proved wrong but most footfall past there is commuters, very little impulse buys from the location. Though it depends on what the club plans for shop and driving business to the store with players' signings etc. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,353 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Is it not next door to the Celtic shop i thought i read a few weeks back? I think I'd prefer if it was airside, which is where most of the shopping gets done. If it's next to the Celtic shop then is it not to one side as you walk down from the carpark? Not ideal. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, right at the top of the escalator - I feel physically sick as soon as I get to the top of the escalator. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or right in front of you as you walk down the walkway from the second floor of the car park 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
