# Glasgow Rangers: James Bisgrove provides update on Edmiston House

**Glasgow Rangers’ marketing director James Bisgrove has [told the Heart & Hand Podcast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YQ76ems-_M&feature=youtu.be) that the Edmiston House project is one of the most exciting in European football.**

The club plan on redeveloping the facility near Ibrox as they look to bring the club into the 21st century. As it stands, the building is derelict, but following the [£3m credit facility](https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/news/18502153.can-rangers-turn-white-elephant-cash-cow-edmiston-house-plan/) extended to them by Close Brothers in 2018, they believe that they can renovate the whole place and give it a fresh new look.

Speaking on the podcast, Bisgrove explained:

> *“If you take a step back from Rangers, that has to be one of the most exciting projects in European football.*
>
> *“Our aim there is to create a destination really for supporters seven days a week, also a destination for Glasgow in terms of what we can do around conferences and events.*
>
> *“That for us is an opportunity for us to turn a derelict building, lets be an honest a bit of an eyesore at the moment in and around the Ibrox footprint, into a revenue generating asset.*
>
> *“Within that are a number of pillars. We presented a plan to the board that projected a seven-figure profit per year from that building.”*

This is fantastic news for all matchgoing fans. Part of the matchday experience is having somewhere to drink, eat and congregate before a game, and the renovation of Edmiston House into a facility the Gers can be proud of would give supporters exactly that.

The added bonus is that it could generate at least £1m a year, which could no doubt be put to good use by the Gers in others areas. All in all, this is a positive update from Bisgrove.
