Could do with some more predominantly male brands/experiences.

How about a Real Ale shop? :dance:

Me and my wife have just been discussing this, some nice bars/ food places would be great. It would also breathe new life into Xscape. It really has the potential to be massive if done right .

W are adding flagship stores which is great news. Can't be far away now.

There's going to be a food area with lots of eateries. Which is good. In relation to drink, I'd have a stadium bar facing the shopping complex and open it like a pub., make it so you can sit outside in the good weather. Might be a money spinner.

Been saying exactly the same for the last umpteen years, a Weatherspoon type scenario doing meals and a pint etc, maybe playing RL games on the TV's etc, no reason why this couldn't generate an income 52 weeks of the year.

This is definitely what the club needs if it is to find ways to generate income outside of match days only............ :-k

So that's 12 officially confirmed, I know of 3 more smaller stores that have or are in the process of signing up too but won't take up anywhere near as much floor space

The JD looks massive on the updated picture of the centre too.

Agree that having proper corporate and hospitality is a must and will definitely help to increase revenue, but the bar/grill/weatherspoon type arrangement also incorporating the shop that is currently in escape will generate revenue 7 days a week, its a no brainer to my way of thinking.

Point is why not have both then you have what is starting to look like a clever little business indeed....... :-k
