A Glasgow bar has issued an emotional plea after admitting that it may not survive for much longer.
The Signal Box Bar, based in the West End of the city, took to Facebook last night to say that despite bringing events to pub-goers and showing live sports in the boozer, there is not enough people coming through the doors.
The Fulton Street venue is asking people to show up and support the pub, or they may have no choice but to close.

Taking to Facebook, the pub wrote: "This is not a post I’ve ever wanted to make but I think it’s time to say it.
"We as a pub have given our all to making it as best as it can possibly be. I continue to put every penny back into the pub with renovations and entertainment for all to enjoy, but it just never seems to be enough. Everyone wants to save the Siggy but when the Siggy has been saved no one shows up.
"We are tired of the empty nights in the pub and the days spent with only four people in. Everyone has their life’s to get on with but in the midst of that please make the time to show your support. Without the continued support, we will not survive and the last thing we want is to shut the doors."
The statement continued: "If we don’t see a change, we will have no choice but to go back on everything we’ve worked so hard to achieve. Without the customers we can’t bring events, live sports and even drink into the pub. Don’t let it get to that. We can’t be around for funerals, party’s and special occasions if you aren’t around for the other days. Don’t miss it when it’s gone, enjoy the pub while it’s still here."

Support for the pub was quick to flood in from punters.
One person wrote: "The best pub with the best people. I will definitely be seeing you all soon."
Another said: "Best pub."
A third person added: "A great community pub for everyone and always a welcome for friends and strangers. Get yourself in."
A fourth added: "Not one person can say ye haven't tried to make a go of it."
The bar is located at 176 Fulton Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom, G13 1ER
