Lozzylozenge Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Well everyone said it was only a matter of time, but i have been awake since the early hours listening to the masses of fire engines. Yes Its been burnt down and the 13 and 14 bus service cant get through cos the roads are blocked. So those of you catching the bus into town this morning should walk to william hill and catch 58 or get another from hillsborough. Good luck.

feargal Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 That's such a shame... the front part is listed isn't it? Like Roughy says, it's probably just going to be an almost blank canvas for some horrendous looking (and crammed in) luxury apartments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalman Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Road was still closed with fire engines and a big crane when I came past. It really is appalling that people get can away with this sort of thing. As said above, I'm sure a set of luxury apartments will rise phoenix-like from the ashes.

Tony Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 Firstly, please stop assuming that somebody has committed a criminal act for commercial gain. That's no more than slander. People go to prison for committing such acts. The Police & Fire Brigade and Insurance Investigators don't have to look very far to find culprits in such circumstances. That's why it's as rare as hens teeth. Secondly, there's no reason to grant planning just because there was a fire. Insurance should sort out the damage. Lastly, all that said, IMO the only reason it was refused was political anyway, so I was all for it being redeveloped, especially as I understand that its days as a commercially viable club had passed.
