There are a lot of decent jokes in an STFC takeaway to be fair.

Such a stupid idea and yet entirely conceivable with this team. People should bring back the pin badges, bucket hats, even the retro remake shirts themselves. Bootleg the fuck out of the operation, they ain't interested. And then it'll be your fault we're stuck in the doldrums because you didn't drive down for a pasta pomodoro twice a week. I'm sure the club that's spent almost three years haggling over a £100k catering contract and over a year recruiting a sous chef for hospitality will be well on course to a michelin star. Politely speaking, Twats.

Stupid question, but is it a suggestion as part of the mythical stadium development?

I have long lamented the fact the clubs makes pitiful use of the square footage it has leased, and adding an establishment linked into the ethos of a football club that fronts the Magic Roundabout would make sense. I am not sure removing a shop that sells merchandise to football fans on a the day of a football match would be the best idea - but you could certainly move it. I wouldn't go fully online though, not when you have so much available floor space to use. I think you could maybe staff it on less days, I doubt walk-up traffic is currently that much (nothing else there to bring people to the area), but as you add more facilities, it would make good sense. Atlanta Utd have their club shop in a retail area about 5 miles away from where the stadium is, then they have an onsite shop (bigger) that is open on matchdays only. It needs the footfall to be worth opening, and they have 40k+ attendances. The area around their stadium is now being developed with retail/commercial, so they may also open more as that happens.
In short, a bit of the idea is not crazy.

From what I've heard it's extending/splitting the space, so keeping a slightly smaller club shop and then a revenue generating business.

The club shop is too small as it is, making it smaller would be ludicrous. The only reason it doesn’t feel too small is because it’s never got any stock. |

The fact the club shop isn’t seen as a revenue generating business is a shame Don’t see how a tiny restaurant would work. The kitchens are a fucking mile away |

It's more about maximising revenue/space - its a bit silly to say they don't see the club shop as a revenue generating business. |
