Zorrro Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 This is a real negative. We now need two positives. One to cancel out the negative and another one just so we can have a positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boiled down to two words: don't panic Don't panic. There's a few headless chickens around these parts that need to heed that advice. It seems to me the same people complaining it was empty and was a waste of space anow the most vocal it has gone. Funny that. More trade is done online nowadays anyway, suspect it may be the same for the shop. Edited June 20, 2014 by singe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oafc88 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Just thinking on the space left behind by the club shop. Depending on the refurbishment of the main stand (if/when it happens) could maybe use it as another bar for fans before an after games? Not sure what demand would be for two bars but worth a shout.

A decent ticket office with capacity to cope with big games would be nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laticsrblue Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I thought that was moving to the New Stand? It's not going to make Latics any money for the majority of the year, it would just be a waste of valuable space in the new stand. Using the "old" club shop is a good call though.

Stagger Lee Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 A decent ticket office with capacity to cope with big games would be nice! But will there be room to make bacon butties and cups of tea to feed the 5000 - in the queue for the Liverpool FA cup tickets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll be able to buy a smoked ham and rocket ciabatta for a fiver from the new coffee shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Will it have mustard mayo on it, or is that extra? Always hold on the mayo - it'll drip on your Clarke's originals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego_Sideburns Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Supposed to be something in the Chron today about the club shop closure....anybody read it yet? I've just got round to reading the Matthew Chambers piece in the Chron from that day. It says the commercial units in the new stand are expected to be completed by January 2015. Until then club goods can be purchased either online or in alternative local stores. An Athletic source said "There are plans for the existing shop, which can't be disclosed at this time, but which we believe will provide a good return...we ask fans to stick with us. This is short-term pain for long-term gain." it also says no members of staff are to lose their jobs when the current shop shuts for good.

palmer1 Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Does anyone know when the new kits are released? Normally at least had a sneak peak by now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShireBlue Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Does anyone know when the new kits are released? Normally at least had a sneak peak by now I would think it'll be in the next 7 days, before the first pre-season game at Curzon Ashton.
