Shrimpsvoices

At last nights meeting of SADARSE one of the subjects that was discussed was considering the rebranding of the current Globe and Grill Bar and Club Shop.

Various suggestions have been put forward as to how to make the Bar more fans friendly especially on match days / nights so that the Bar becomes the first meeting place for fans rather than other pubs in the area.

At this stage it is felt that a change in name is needed and we would like all fans to have their say about what the 'new' Bar should be called. The new name will coincide with changes in the visual aspect of the bar as well as it is hoped to have more additions to what you can spend your hard earned cash on....

If you have any thoughts about a new name then please post on this thread or alternatively PM me.

It's YOUR club bar and for it to provide what YOU want we need YOUR input.

Cheers.

The "Shrimps' Legends Bar".

Big photographs on the walls of players from different eras to attract Morecambe fans of all ages.

You could have Arnold Timmins , Charlie Lea , Gerry Irving from the late 60s . Tony Webber , Malcolm Richmond from the FA Trophy win. John Coleman and the rest of the "Famous Five" from our Conference promotion era. Thommo , Michael Twiss , Danny Carlton , Jimbo from the 2007 team.

Pies for sale on non-match days at £1 each.

JB's, and fill it with donated memorabilia , and a couple of pool tables as that wouldn't cost anything.

Needs to be bigger, with a patio, make it look open, get rid of the sofas.
A separate space for pool table, fruit machine juke box and dartboard.
Will be interesting how the new neighbours from East and West will integrate.
Could call it the World Cup Bar, at least for tomorrow

No need... we have a club shop for all the unsold programmes and Shanghai scarves!

Never got an email CC, so I never knew about it.

I vote for the name "Christie's"

Neil, you forgot to mention also that we discussed renaming the Club Shop from it's non-descript name of errrr, Club Shop, to something more "club related".

Every other clubs souvenir/leisurewear shop is named something connected with the club so I proposed this because just naming it "Club Shop" is frankly, crap.

Something like "Shrimps Store" or ...... any others folks ??

The Golden Shrimp

Ooooops.....

OK new name for CLUB SHOP as well......

Shrimps Store

Kit Stop

Shrimps Clobber

"Shrimps Store" would be fine!

Callander bar an grille..

Ok, my initial thoughts on the revised bar name (hoorah)

Charlie's Bar (named after recently departed legend Charlie Lea)

Clarrie's Bar (named after club legend Clarrie Hollings who served us for 60 years. And spent a lot of time in the old JB's Bar!!!)

74-7 or SeventyFourSeven or 747 (the 74 element representing the year of our FA Trophy triumph at Wembley and the 7 representing our 2007 Wembley Play Off triumph)

Following that line of thinking...

4 4 2 or Four Four Two

But then again it could be 4 2 3 1....

Bit too convoluted for my liking, I'm a simple chap.

I'd go for "JB's" which reflects on Mr Christie's generosity and is also a historical link with Christie Park. And it's simple!

Quite like Charlie's Bar too.

JB's is good Keith. Always did have a good ring to it that name.

It refers back (of course) to JB Christie (our benefactor) and also the old JB's Bar at Christie, and could also refer to another club legend in Jim Bentley.

yes, jb's , love it! anyone have a problem with it being Jims initials?

The Chrustie Pie

With a proper light-heated glass pie counter, with lashings of gravy, preferably made with laughing stock.
Be nice to have Guinness on tap, instead of out of a can! If you want customers to come back, provide the real product and a good atmosphere.
