Is a pub Near You About To Close If So Post On Here

Ironsky: did they tell you about the fun and games on Saturday night?

Sadly no but do tell. I know one of the past landlords did a runner even taking the pub furniture with them

As I understand it the people running the pub obviously took exception to how they had been treated. So they decided halfway through Saturday night to walk out. It didn't take the clientele long to realise that nothing was preventing them from helping themselves at first to free drinks and then to whatever stock was on hand. Not sure how things developed from there but 4 police cars were eventually required to sort it out!!

I wish someone had let me know...

O' no missed the party!  Not the first time this as happed at a pub can't blame them for walking out pub co's treat there tenants poorly though forever rising rents.

I'm sure no drink 'offer' will beat the give away that took place on 'that' Saturday night

Does anyone know if the Wellington at New Whittington has closed or under threat of closure, as the Moonrakers' pub at Newbold been sold for redevelopment?

Wellington appears to be fine. Moonrakers no comment.
I've noticed more and more pubs not opening in the dinnertime/afternoon slot. Derby Tup for one !

Goldminers closed in September this year. Like Iv said before have spoken to the new manager at Spital pub Marston's is not selling the pub ( not yet anyway) Wellington pub at New Whittington and Moonrakers I will try to find out what's happening to them. All that I ask is please don't put a pub is closing on here based on hear say or rumor its hard for the people in the trade as it is without Internet rumours about there pub closing.  Thanks.

I may be making this up as I go along but didnt the Goldminers have lots of licencing issues with underage drinkers?

No idea if Goldminers had issues with underage drinkers. The only way to find that out would be though the Licensing Committee run by the council or press reports if the story was published.
