Castore Store at Stadium

[Empire]

Has anyone noticed if the work is underway yet? Can see there is now things blocking the door so you can’t see in but there’s not been much activity when I’ve passed by.

I walked past yesterday,as you say blocked from looking inside but not much else going on

 

[Empire]

I thought now the kind of companies who would do renovations are back working it would had started this week. A lot of work to do in a short space of time.

 

[Porto Loyal]

It’s interesting that the new storefront is very obvious driving across the Kingston Bridge.

I suspect that if Sports Direct still has any time left on the lease they will make sure we don't get in till the last possible minute

I was thinking this but someone was saying on here last month they knew all their stock was now moved out and the store was back in our hands to start the work.

I don’t know if I’ve picked up information wrong from interviews but I was under the impression the store was opening around August 1st or was it just said to be August with no specific date confirmed? Even if it was 31st August, I’d like to think the work would be starting soon.

There was never a specific date on it.

For some weird reason Rangers said 1st August in that statement last week about SD. We all know it won’t be ready by then.

Maybe that’s where I’ve got that date from.

Don't panic Nick Knowles has been spotted at Glasgow Airport

 

[Miko]

It's supposed to be open on 1st August for the away strip launch so I would expect it would be well underway. I know shopfitters often go into a unit and blitz it in a few days but with the extra Covid conditions of working on sites these days (social distancing, etc) I would think everything will take a bit longer than it normally would.

Can he play on the right wing

 

[Burgh Loyal]

I thought Tom beahon said 1st August in the 4 lads interview last week

 

[Blue Light Loyal]

Are they recruiting?

Daughter just finished 6th year, decided to defer uni due to the virus so she needs to start earning.

Says mid August on new website but Tom Beahon said 1st August in 4 lads interview.

Castore have prioritised the Ibrox Store over their new store in Liverpool.

 

[Papa Bear]

I was up the other day and had a gander in the front door. It's blocked off but not completely so you can see in the store. Nothing has been done yet other than the shop floor has been emptied

Yes there was. Rangers said 1st August and so did Tom Beahon in his 4LHAD interview

I thought the one at Liverpool One had opened?

 

[Coatbridge Chancellor]

1st of August is a Saturday and a(n) (away) match day, first game of the season. Be a strange day to open.

Or genius. Game is at 5.30pm and the store opens at say 9. Place will be empty by the time the game starts.

Good for the pubs too. Get a few stalls open near the queue

Good thinking. Staff discount for daddy!

 

[Geerfc19]

Shopfitters can turn around shops really quickly. The biggest probable delay would probably be the delivery of the units etc

 

[1872_stu]

Canny wait to get in there and spend, spend, spend.

How do we know it won't be ready?

 

[pelem]

The wife gave me money to make up £60 for the new home top so added to daddies day dosh I will head to The RANGERS Shop on August when it opens.

 

[Nick Jarvis]

Its not a huge shop, so I wouldn't imagine it being difficult to gut and refit it within a 2 week period. Its only 8th of July, so there is loads of time until 1st August.

 

[Kilwinnin ranger]

They handed the shop back to the club 2 weeks ago.
A team of shopfitters wont be long getting it ready.

 

[Ally’s Golden Boot]

Easily refitted within 2 weeks.

 

[KL2]

Yeah, the actual design plans will have been the most time consuming to figure out exactly how they want the layout to look.

They'll have the work done in a couple of weeks, tops.

Strip launch day though.

there’s been talk of a slight internal elevation being installed in the new store.

 

[Empire]

Went by again earlier. Still absolutely nothing happening.

Can’t see it being open in 12 days!

Looks like the only place you’ll be able to physically buy a kit on August 1st is Sports Direct.

Cluster f*ck.

 

[The Union Flag]

Are they not talking about mid August completion now? I’d say that’s pretty unrealistic but hope I’m proved wrong

Cluster %^*&.

I thought maybe the work being done on Edmiston Drive might delay it but there is still access to the stadium/store so it can’t be for that reason.

It’s like a ghost town at the store. Not a van in sight and still looks the same as it has for the last few years with the same posters etc in the windows.

 

[Uddy Gers]

Don’t think GCC have approved the planning as of yet.

 

[rangeral]

There was a planning application to Glasgow City Council for internal changes posted on here last week I am sure

 

[Valley Bluenose]

Are they not talking about mid August completion now? I’d say that’s pretty unrealistic but hope I’m proved wrong

It was always forecast for mid-August and then, in what seemed a knee-jerk reaction to HoF taking pre-orders, they brought it forward to 1 August. I don’t think there’s a hope in Hell of that so, hopefully, folk are smart enough to order online or wait. If they don’t then they obviously haven’t been following what’s gone on with our retail over the last few years. Albeit this time around we make money regardless of who’s selling.

Sure you will be able to buy in JD Sports or Greaves if Castore have a deal with them?

Hmm wonder what that means.

No doubt they will be being awkward and dragging their heels over this. Anything to "get up the Rangers" from this mhob.

Would this not be against the law?

I would say Rangers haven't paid the correct fee for the certificate required or I could say that the Council are acting the cvnt.

Possibly! Although I thought I read that when sports direct spoke about being able to buy the kit ‘exclusively’ from them it was because they’ll have it before other high street retailers.

I may be wrong tho.

 

[TommyV]

The refit could be done in a few days, bigger stores have been done over weekends.
