Aspers Stratford becomes less appealing to APAT members?
AMRN:
That"s a major blow for Aspers. OK the APAT festival won"t be quite the same, but for Aspers, I wonder how many people going for a night out with a few quid in their pocket will now go elsewhere where they can have a glass of wine with their meal, and a few cocktails at the bar, before hitting the gaming floor.
Also, for those that do go to Aspers rather than elsewhere - I wonder how loose their wallets will be without a glass of something in their hand whilst on the gaming floor.
Would love to be a fly on the accountant"s wall at Aspers as he does his budget forecast now...

Punters will still be able to do this as long as it"s before 11pm (the alcohol ban is only post 11pm I believe).
Pretty sure Aspers will be working hard to turn this round. I"d be very surprised if come the WCOAP they aren"t back to serving alcohol until the early hours...

It says in the report:
The supercasino in Westfield Stratford City will be unable to serve alcohol at any time or food between the hours of 11pm and 5am, following the incident on Saturday night.
They will loose a fortune if it doesn"t get sorted soon!

Blimey. Right you are. I skim read it from my phone and thought they had only lost their late (post 11pm) license!

Leaving aside the drinking issue....I"m more concerned about "door supervisors" "beating up" customers.
The "door supervisors" I have known...and I"ve met and talked to many over the decades....the last thing they want is a hassle. It"s a legal quagmire for them and at 2am the last thing they want is to get into a punch up and end up leaving the local nick at omygod o"clock after a night of giving statements.
Bouncers...to give them the name we all use...want a quiet night.
A complete lack of any professionalism...if the allegation is true and I"d be looking into the hiring practices if I was Aspers senior management.
