houston_bud Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Option 1) No income, stadium lies empty for 2 weeks, no loan players from Celtic. Option 2). Celtic play 3 friendlies there, stick up some temporary branding, we get income and/or loan players from Celtic.. Baring in mind the last 3 we got on loan from them were Cuthbert McGowan and Carey... Then option 2 for me. Whilst I agree, I doubt the signs would have been a deal breaker. Put some smaller, temporary, road signs pointing in the direction of the shop or whatever.I'm not overly concerned, but it's still not nice to see. Also it would have been obvious that many fans would have an issue with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 An element of our fans have been moaning that our board don't come up with enough money making schemes......no doubt the same ones will be moaning about this . The signs are a bit excessive but it's part of the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarreZ Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 There's more to life than taking the Green Pound - like having some self-respect Its pretty bad for sure - at least its not the blue pound, that would be a step too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then option 2 for me. Option 3) Celtic play 3 friendlies there, Celtic use the club shop and put a post on their website explaining where the shop is, with an A-board sign on the street, we get income and/or loan players from Celtic.. Baring in mind the last 3 we got on loan from them were Cuthbert McGowan and Carey... What will your opinion be if they take down all the crests around each stand, aswell?

Dunning1874 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 And as if to prove the point Celtic's Paul McMullan, who we're trying to get on loan, is a striker who can play out wide... Has Murray said publicly that you're in for him or is it just a rumour at the moment? I was hoping we'd get him but if you lot are after him there's no doubt where he's going to go.

SpoonTon Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 McMullan should've finished any change we had of winning the league. Bottled a one on one with Gaston with Stenny 2 up at that point. One of the stand outs in League One last season though. Good wee player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 How are you all feeling about this? WTF is going on there? I take it that will be down in a few weeks? Is it actually going to be a Celtic shop? Bizarre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergie's no1 fan Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 WTF is going on there? I take it that will be down in a few weeks? Is it actually going to be a Celtic shop? Bizarre Celtic are renting our ground for 3 pre season friendly games and they have rented out our club shop too. The sign is a sickener. Just when our fans were starting to get onside with the board again, this happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutz_the_Squirrel Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Football fans can be so precious at times. If Celtic want to splash cash as wildly as their ex-rivals, let them. The cash made from this will go a long way to make up the shortfall in dropping a division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still looks really really really weird though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutz_the_Squirrel Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 The sign is a sickener. What is sickening about it? Would you rent a home if you weren't allowed at least a little wiggle room to redecorate for a short period of time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hammer Jag Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Absolutely no need for signs. Embarrassing from St Mirren, classless from Celtic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the fact a St.Mirren sign has been removed for a big fck off green Celtic one but if they have paid good money for the privilege then fair do's. It's just a fucking temporary sign for a temporary club shop. Reactions much in the "players shud b more loyal to der club!!" category. I am guessing it will just be on the 3 match days which isn't too bad really. I think its the fact we had no idea it was happening so its came as a bit of a shock.

Celtic aren't at their usual home and still will be looking to use pre season games for retail opportunities like many other clubs do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
