Manchester though - what a random decision I feel really sorry for blackpool - that was so the obvious place to put it and it would have been really good for the town.
isnt the dome already being refurbed into a music venue? i thought so...sponsered by O2....
hmmmm
i had the impression the casino wasnt actually going to be in the dome.
Ah that would be pretty cool! :hyper:
O2 just bought the name the actual place has been bought by the man who wanted to run the casino - prezzers friend the Texan. He is financing that part of the deal but has said he will only fund further development in the area if the casino goes ahead - that was to be more flats and restaurants and houses and stuff - but given the ridiculos price of houses in the area I can't imagine that they will have any difficulty persuading another developer to take the project on - minus the casion - which is definately a good thing.
over near asdas at sport city.
i think rusholme is known for curries, not drug dealers.
It's going to be a whole resort with hotels, restaurants, shops etc I presume. People will travel from all over to go to it. Not your run of the mill schemey casino.
:yes: My thoughts exactly.
Well, really, they shouldn't be building one at all.
Maybe they were worried about the social implications on Blackpool being more damaging. I believe it's one of the most deprived areas in the UK, and giving the population a chance to gamble away what little they have would be catastrophic.
Not mad about the whole idea myself anyway.
i'm excited. I love casinos.
Best way to go to casinos is with a certain amount (that you don't mind losing) in your pocket and no cards. Also make sure your with trustworthy friends who won't give in to your demands to borrow cash, and will tell you when to quit!
I dont like casinos that much personally. I have learnt from personal experience just how much they can fuck lives up.
Capitalism rocks.
And I don't find supporting a status quo regulating gambling or whatever to be incompatible with it...
