No. Having them both in the same building will mean that less is spent on overheads, such as rent, rates, heat, light... You may as well get a pile of £20 notes and set fire to them, as have two separate buildings.

No reason why they cannot have separate offices within the same building to look after their own thing. It's what the majority of businesses do.

they do.......its called a curtain seperating the room in the middle

re your previous post........im not in a minority, i want a new shop as well as the rest.

warriors world could carry on doing lotto, tickets etc, and rent out the bit they dont use..........ie the front bit that used to be a sweet shop...or run it as a seperate shop selling sweets, with profits going to the club.

THEN GET A MERCHANDISE SHOP.

if both shops make money wheres the problem??

your getting peed off cos im peeing on your fire and stopping you flogging/renting a propertty to the club

£40k p/a rent, job's a good 'un

Do it this way round and you force the footfall through the retail shop to get to the bar/cafe, thereby increasing your chances of impulse purchase.

Even better have the entrance leading into the bar/museum but have to exit via the shop as per Disney / Alton Towers style selling photos of your visit!!

The Baa idea is excellent.

TBH anywhere in the town centre or Robin Park would be good.

The current location is great in terms of parking, thats all.

I was thinking they could close the upper levels at night but keep the ground floor bar open. I'd go in there for pre-King Street beers at weekend if my money was going to the club.

With a museum upstairs, you could charge £2.50 adults £1 kids and probably get back a couple of grand a year easily.

Good location with people getting off trains and walking up Wallgate into town.

£40k a year, get your wallet out Mr Lenegan

Actually that's a good shout re the access, depends on stairs/disabled access but either would work. Irrespective, would like to see something like that.
