aye and its not as if it Official merchandise. Hey i even bought a ICT flag down in Partick a few years ago for a SC game, mind you it was a old France flag with "Inverness Cally Thistle" on it and the 2nd "l" had pen marks on it to make it look like an "e".

Even if someone sold Scotland flags but with the Saltire cross in red instead of white and ICT written in white over it, im sure that would be a big hit with fans no?

Other than Ibrox, Parkhead, Tynecastle and Hampden I dont recall seeing street venders at other grounds.

To sell outside the ground it is necessary to obtain a street vendor's licence from the council and permission from the club. To use the club logo an any un-official merchandise could also get the seller into bother. But caleykid1994, there's no reason, provided you can overcome the hurdles, that you cant obtain and sell merchandise and be 'the guy outside the stadium'.

I did investigate getting a Street Trading License a couple of years ago, but due to the exclusion zone in operation in Inverness for such licenses then I would be restricted to selling outwith the City Centre (by a fair bit).

Whilst that's fine on a matchday as the zone only extends as far as Innes St in that direction, it's a bit of a hassle/cost for what would essentially be the ability to sell only 20 to 25 days a year when there's matches (and customers).

Even if the club were to give permission to operate from their premises (car park or forecourt), I would still need the License. As I understand it, the club themselves need a License for selling programmes and draw tickets outside the ground on matchdays.

Well myself and my old man had been thinking about scraping together money and refurbishing the Citadel and only open it on matchdays and have the ICT fans in there for a pre-match bevvyup and then march down on the stadium in droves(i can see it now). You could put a vendor along Cromwell road and make a killing. Aslong as the fans have a drink and laugh(without going too far) im sure that would lossen up most people and maybe, just maybe we might a half decent atmosphere?

Can't see how you'd make money there kid. Lets say you could get 100 fans a fortnight each spending ?20. That's ?2000 x about 25 matchdays. ?50k turnover a year. It can cost up to ?3000 just for the licence, then there's stock, wages, rental of premises etc. Not much left of your ?50k.

We're getting a bit off topic here folks, will split the thread and move the non-tshirt design stuff elsewhere.

emphasis on the Had been part

Better to be a Has Been than a Never Was!!!

[WYNESS101]

CaleyD - what if you got a few t-shirts made up and got the t-shirt guy in the victorian market to sell them? Maybe if all goes well you could keep adding new t-shirts and getting him to sell them on

No , are you ?

Aye, I quite like Lee Cox.

[DornochCaley]

I think Cox has played better with Duncan with him rather than Stratford. He hasnt been poor this season but he hasnt been great either. I think he is fine playing CM and i cant see anyone in our current team good enough to oust him from his position.
