    This is very very exciting.

    Further enhances the club's rep as a forward thinking business.

    Hopefully be a museum or something involved as well.

    Would be class booking in for a European nigjt then walking out 20 mins before kick off seeing everyone walking up the celtic way.

    Amazing.

    If it's anything like Hotel Football down in Manchester it will be something else. Hopefully we put in the same level of detail as the Neville's etc... have.

    in theory, yes.
    but, the average price of a 4 star hotel would be about £100 per night and even though you could possibly half fill it on match days, you'd need to fill the hotel every other day to turn a profit, and considering the distance from the city centre it would seem any business people (who you'd hope to be your primary customers) would turn to the abundant hotels in the city.

    From scratch? No Chance. I would like to see something done about the restricted views, and an aspiration of mine has always been to complete the bowl all the way around by upgrading the south stand. Lot of people seem to think it's listed but I am led to believe this is not the case.

    One thing at a time though :]

    I went to the Dortmund V Sporting game earlier this season and noticed thier big club shop outside the stadium had upstairs in it where they had a big balcony with tables and chairs and there was people out sitting there having a drink before the game. Would be good if we done the same, in the pictures those platform things on the roof could have tables and chairs out where even if you canny sell drink people could sit with teas or coffees and snacks before games. Get people turning up earlier and hanging around doing museum tours and eating and drinking in the area before and after games.

    Need cafes and stuff in the area of the stadium.

    I imagine there will be numerous bars etc.

    It's a great idea and has been long long overdue.

    The size of our support and the amount of people who talk about the atmosphere here for the big games....It could be a potential gold mine.

    From what I understand there just want the budget at the time to do a total rebuild. It's not a listed building either and isnt structurally atttached to the other stands so it could be torn down for a rebuild.

    Thought it was listed, as mentioned above.... But that might no be the main stand side to be fair, but something to do with the graveyard?

    I actually like the ground capacity as it is. We don't need a bigger capacity, and something old school about the main stand and being able to look beyond over it as well at any scheme tower blocks when the game's pish :56:

    Was worried at points that this bwas shelved. Glad to see some other artists impressions as well.

    If done right, it will be amazing. Make it 4 stars, 2 bars, one to the public and a more private lounge area for guests if they need it.
    Add in a decent bar/bistro that will be rightly abused (in a good way) before a game. Integrate a museum and shop - barcelona do it well for a megastore at the end of the tour. Tie all that in together and sell the whole package. Anyone visiting Glasgow for a holiday who is remotely football minded will take a look at staying here.

    I would honestly book in to it every so often, even when living in glasgow. Book a package ticket/stay for a game and make a time of it with mates or a girlfriend.

    Clean up the windows at the back of the stadium and stick green lights in instead of those horrible orange lights on the roof.
