5. I went to watch the Gala barristor in action in Bradford V Thistle Hotels, he was very clever and really put the screws on the Thistle Witnesses, although he hardly ever mentioned "DEMAND" (the only criteria the magistrstes consider in awarding a licence) he did manage to throw up plenty of "smoke screens" On this basis, I am sure that I and any other

d
witnesses are in for a hard time in court.

Just a pointer ... Having been to court on a number of occasions...professionally of course.. The Barrister will try to throw up smoke screens and ask questions in a verbally challenging way .. i.e. big words confusing sentences... All you have to say is "I dont understand the question could you re phrase it please" Two things 1) it will throw them as they will have there preparred questions
but not alternates
and two you can guarantee the magistrates won't understand and they will be thankful that its been made more comprehensible.. Short answers as well...
Cometh the hour ..Cometh the man.. I sent you a PM wishing all the best
But Again All the best!

Surely that means they will have to do twice as much preparation though... Having said that I really don't think warning them to prepare questions in plain English will have much of an effect on the outcome of the case!
Best of luck Rob!

Before 1 September they wouldn't have been allowed to.

Thanks for all your kind words and advice.
Many Gala, Stanleys and LCI employees have also told me that I have no chance - "cause their boss told them this and that blah blah blah", but as I have always said,
I remain supremely confident
even if other people do not share my view. IMO all I am up against is a few hired hands in suits, the Magistrates (who are just normal people like me and you) will see straight through them and their underhand tactics and then this will all be ancient history,
dusk till
dawn
will open, and people will be saying "do you remember those donkey casinos who tried to stop us opening, what a bunch of jockeys they really were".
I mean, how sick is it that when the recently opened Stanleys Casino applied for their casino licence in Nottingham - they received NO OBJECTIONS, and I have all 3 against me..........how can I or anyone else have any respect for the way these casinos do their business?
Cheers Rob

This case is a land mark - and one that the magistrates should be proud to be involved with. Granting this will give so much to Nottingham and the surrounding areas - how can they possibly say no?
There are so many people holding their breath on this one - last night at Luton it was the talk of one of the tables I was on - people wanting to escape the gaming tables and just be able to play poker.
Good luck Rob - you deserve it after all your perseverance.

To the outsider its a no brainer...
1-50 DTD 40-1 Muppets.
To the informed with all inside information and knowing how they play dirty......
1-10 DTD 7-1 Muppets.
To the punter with a large bankroll........
1-3 DTD 2-1 Muppets.
You dont need luck Rob, what you need is justice.
All the very best.
