With all these photos of the Cobbold it makes me wonder what could be done with the empty shop front. I assume this used to be the club shop at some point? Ten points for the best idea of what the club could do with it. |  |

Could make it into another legends bar, ideal for pre/post match pint or two. |  |

It was the club shop in the mid nineties. I also remember the club shop being in Sailmakers (ex. Tower Ramparts). |  | | |

Its the size of a six yard box! I mean, they could sell beer there, but no room to drink in there.
Remember going in there matchdays, everything hanging up behind the counter. |  |

Are you not thinking of the little shop in the West Stand?
The old club shop in the Cobbold was a fair size but nothing major. | |

Answering my own post here but how about a snaj museum about the club? It could have stories and memorabilia about all the legends on the windows etc. | |

I think you've nailed it there!
The chip portions could come in Jay Tabb or Kieffer Moore sizes.
Alex Mathie Sausage (battered the Budgies)
Kevin Beattie is Cod.
Mark Fischcakes.
Haddocked points for fielding an ineligible player?

Whilst F&C is food of the gods and a great shout, how about going radical and make it an Indian. They could sell samosas, onion bhajis, seekh kebabs, biriyanis, tandoori, stuffed bicycle seats. Just think of the smells wafting across PR….
Just a suggestion. [Post edited 21 Jul 2021 20:23]

Absolute heaven in there in 70’s! Send to save up for the colour photos. Had a hooded sweatshirt, red for some reason, covered in those sew on patches. God knows how many mugs I was bought for birthday presents! | | | |

St Pauli have their Fanladen, which is pretty famous- we should do one of them. Its basically a bar run entirely by the fans. They have a counter selling fanzines, scarfs, t-shirts, books by fans- all fan created content.
There is also a bar in there and a massive FCSP tiled logo on the wall. The walls themselves are completely covered in FCSP stickers.
Its a great place to go either pre or post game if you can get in and people spill outside it having a few drinks before drifting away after the game. | | | |

TWTD Megastore, innit?
Signed photos of your favourite forum members, inflatable banhammers, t-shirts with Phil on them, copies of the 400 page compendium of great forum threads etc etc etc
(For the love of God, don't do a compendium of the worst of TWTD, we'd need to store it in that massive warehouse at the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark) |  | | |

It was both. Prior to the early-mid 90s it was a tiny shop. The counter ran all along the width and you'd battle to get served by counter staff to look or buy items that were all behind the counter.
You couldn't physically browse items on the shelves or on the hooks like today. The counter was also like a display cabinet so you could see some of the range of non-clothing items (pens, key rings, teddies, mugs, badges etc) with the clothing items hung up behind the serving staff. Obviously there was a much smaller range, and certainly much less team manufactured stuff by the likes of Adidas, Umbro etc. |  | | |

How about Phil rents it as the TWTD Bar, stocked with Away Bears and a cheese buffet bar |  |
