hi Rob...........it is heartbreaking to hear the news today for us mere players who wish to frequent your club , i cannot imagine how you must be feeling.is there anything us members of blonde can do to help ie set up a petition. if there is , i would be only too pleased to help.
ps it is only a minute amount , but please retain any rakeback that i accrue. i would much rather it went towards DTD
Although petitions etc would make some PR noise, nothing will change the Magistrate's decision now, I was not even allowed to speak at the hearing this morning, that's how out of control I was about the decision, but thanks for the offers. There are no more channels I can go through, I am well and truly "snookered" unless, every option is a bad one, I guess I could ditch the whole poker idea and just use the place as a bar/club as have a 24hr drinking licence and the poker table area would make a great dancefloor......
The sik thing is that I never really believed that the system was really so biased towards the rich corporates, lets face it, if 500 individual people had turned up at Stanleys hearing, would the court have adjorned them, in fact, even sicker, is that their licence sailed through the magistrates courts. My advisors tell me I should not say there type of things publicly, but who cares now? I'm not a guy that lies down and lets anyone kick me, but when when you are being held down by people stronger than you, you just have to take the kicking and try and make the best and quickest recovery possible.
Its been a roller coaster, whether I want to stay on now is the queston I have to really ask myself over the next few days. I mean, things are pretty good for me outside of DTD, so why take all this crap? Also, if this can happen, what if the magistrate court actually reject my licence on September 2007, and I have incurred another £600k?
