HeHasRisen Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 (edited) Probably because there is so much resentment towards this project and nobody is wanting to give the business a chance, despite it not being their fault. They are merely collateral damage. Edited December 13, 2022 by HeHasRisen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFBeca Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 I did try, but I went after work and the shops were already closed, and one of the food places that was open didn't have a veggie option. I'll go to the bar when (if?) it opens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same applies for all the other container parks in the UK, I suppose. People have sat outside the Sleigh Bar in the cold for years, myself included.

At least that is what got posted on here. That's what the council officer said. Not allowed to show the England games. If SCC wanted to attract people to the city by using football, why not put up a big screen again in Tudor Sq?

HHR Yep but they are established in obviously better locations, for longer and presumably make enough in the better weather to cover the drop off in the bad. Sleigh Bar - all I can say is they are crazy, but each to their own I suppose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewanarm Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 This shambles has now made the national media. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-63961732.amp The council should cut their losses and just scrap the whole idea.

northernboy Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 That BBC report is very interesting. Paying for an electricity supply that they didn’t know had been removed? The cost of providing generators due to the lack of power. The upstairs bar and terrace will not open. Even more of a shambles than I thought!

harvey19 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Why not plonk them in the middle of roads instead of the flower pots with someone inside explaining why the road has been blocked off. The person could have a desk, chair and computer to do their daily work when there were no enquiries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
