Deadstar 13-07-2004, 15:48 I know people who know people and those people tell thier friends and those friends tell there friends and so on and so on. I know this guy that works there and they have told the staff. apprantley it's to small so there closing down and moving to either rotherham or doncaster. raskel 13-07-2004, 16:39 :o thought they was moving to roxys!! ahhh im gona b gutted...hardly any club in sheffield places dance anymore!!

And the thing about friday nights well it's open saturdays sunday's mondays and thursdays aswell.

And the thing about friday nights well it's open saturdays sunday's mondays and thursdays aswell. open mondays??? news to me......... perhaps we shud get staff working them nights too......... and can u tell me why brooke leisure wud open other establishments in rtherham or donny if they already had clubs/bars there........ btw tryst is a bar not a club Deadstar 13-07-2004, 19:36 Well thats a question you should ask brooke leisure centre but I guess the best reason is money. I think it's open mondays. Robbie Loving 13-07-2004, 19:47 Originally posted by Deadstar Well thats a question you should ask brooke leisure centre but I guess the best reason is money. I think it's open mondays. it would not make sense opening a club in either rotherham or donny...... as they wud be rivalling each other and that is not good for buisness...... and no it notopen mondays raskel 13-07-2004, 19:53 Originally posted by Robbie_Lovin packed on a friday?? u dont know where on about kingdom yeah? ye robbie i do... fridays are packed but yeah satdays are more!! Lestat 13-07-2004, 20:48 The last time I was at Kingdom on a Friday night it was jam-packed!! and that was only a few weeks ago! :cool: princess_rockchick 14-07-2004, 07:45 Never been! Do not know where it is! Not bothered about going really, not my sort of music. Are they taking over roxy's? BigTone 14-07-2004, 15:27 Originally posted by miss_piggy Never been!

On the grapevine First Leisure (who owned Club Wow) and Heaven & Hell have shown an intrest in the old Roxy Disco. As for Kingdom it used to be a great club right up to a couple of years ago but the place is just dyer now trhe sticky carpets, the vingar smell as you walk up the stairs, the lack of "Variety" in the place as well. It does get kinda busy on Saturdays but on friday nights Kingdom is lucky if it's gets half-full. I've come to a point that I'd rather go & watch paint dry then go to Kingdom.

Sweet Tony is right it's "Same sh*t different weekend" - that why I haven't been since Easter Sunday and I have no itentions of going there either in the present future. I'm not saying I'll won't be going again just that I need a break from the place and to explore other avenues. Tony1 14-07-2004, 21:44 Well said Big T! I Totally agree! sparklesista 19-07-2004, 02:04 Hi everyone! I haven't been on here in ages! Robbie is telling the truth, I know coz I work with him! (Hi M8!) Kingdom should of been closed by now but the council haven't started any of the developments in that area yet, and the council have to find Brooke Leisure a place for them to move to and pay for Kingdom's loss of interior and profits etc. The club was empty on that Friday, you might of been in Kingdom Live which is the smaller room. It is open on Mondays, Wednesday, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. However, Mondays & Wednesdays have now closed until September due to the students being away as they were student only nights. Hope this helps people! Tony1 19-07-2004, 18:57 still it is a crap club full of idiots drinking too much (bar staff at fault here for serving ppl who are way too drunk/drunk) and fighting/being sick (not that you notice it anyway wi the carpets already in a state and beind v v sticky) glass all over the dance floor etc etc sparklesista 19-07-2004, 19:09 Originally posted by Tony1 still it is a crap club full of idiots drinking too much (bar staff at fault here for serving ppl who are way too drunk/drunk) and fighting/being sick (not that you notice it anyway wi the carpets already in a state and beind v v sticky) glass all over the dance floor etc etc I don't see how you can say it's the bar staff's fault and aim the blame at all of them! I work behind the bar at Kingdom and I have refused people quite a few times now when they have seemed too intoxicated. After all, it's for their own good! Yes, Kingdom isn't the fancy club it once was when it first opened, but the reason why the carpets are so grotty is because it once had a huge number of people attending nearly every night of the week! The carpets in a place like that cost a fortune and to replace them would mean shutting the club, which results in a loss of profit. It is undergoing a refit in September anyway. It's not always nessecarily the club at fault but the clientel. Maybe I just don't see the fights that occur but whenever I'm working there, I hardly ever see any trouble. I know Kingdom could improve in a lot of ways but sometimes it's not always possible.

You mean like closing down!! hehe, (I know rob too, unfortunatly, only kidding buddy) Yes I must agree with you that kingdom was once a good club but those days are long gone! and i'm glad u refuse ppl who v v drunk, maybe friendlier doorstaff, and a re-ferb wont go a miss!

Keep it real Tony hmmmmmm as for the door staff, they are really firiendly when u get to know em.................... its just getting to know them the carpets i hear have only been there since last september, and i have that from a good source, but can not guarantee that 100% serving people who are drunk??? sometimes that is better to do than actually refusing them, cause if they start getting rowdy, they will start fighting then, i think a lot of fights come from the pill heads that go in, sadly since the demise of WOW they have all piled too kingdom......... as for the small room being empty??? the whole club was empty, kingdom need more people in on fridays, but it is nice to see them addressing that and coming up with better offers for fridays raskel 21-07-2004, 16:43 Originally posted by Robbie_Lovin but it is nice to see them addressing that and coming up with better offers for fridays yeah, what does each offer do? £2 £3 £5 £10 i no £2 is just enrty, n £10 is £30 free drinks voucher, but what abouth the others for a friday? cheerz Rob Robbie Loving 21-07-2004, 17:29 Originally posted by steelcitybab yeah, what does each offer do? £2 £3 £5 £10 i no £2 is just enrty, n £10 is £30 free drinks voucher, but what abouth the others for a friday? cheerz Rob not heard of the £3 one........ £5 is for £10 voucher and entry, £10 one is as is stated by you as is £2 one....... they also have the 1p guest list, where u get entry and a free drink sparklesista 22-07-2004, 14:58 There are 4 guest lists: £2 £3 £5 £10 Robbie Loving 22-07-2004, 17:28 Originally posted by sparklesista There are 4 guest lists: £2 £3 £5 £10 think we already established that......... but there is a 5th the 1p one raskel 22-07-2004, 17:44 Originally posted by sparklesista There are 4 guest lists: £2 £3 £5 £10 ye so what the £3 one do??

It used to be really good, then the bouncers decided to enter the "lets be an arsehole" competition, and won hands down! The place stinks, most of the people that go there do so because nowhere else lets them in, i think the DJ must purchase at the most 3 new tracks a month, the cheesy room never ever has any new music! I think if you went there every week it would be like groundhog day... As someone earlier said, same **** different weekend! An awful, dreadful place... antics 21-06-2005, 23:50 I hope it does close... the scum you see on a Fri/Sat night. mimicraze 22-06-2005, 09:45 by the way I havemt worked there for months!!!! only last a couple of weeks. yeurgh The_Sharp 24-06-2005, 10:52 The Kingdom has been a smear on Sheffield City Centre since it opened. We gagged at Club Wow, and now have been served up another plateful of cheesy filth. Kingdom is a magnet for Chavs. It's expensive, it's tasteless, the music is just plain bad and the people in there do not have an ounce of class. If they knock it down, i'll gladly take up a hammer and help them for free! bigjay 24-06-2005, 10:56 Originally posted by mimicraze Hi Bedhead, i work on the bar :) was a good laugh saturday night, was in the cheese room , so was funny, not my bag unless im wasted but didnt get on my nerves. im too young to have gone to roxy, but my dad used to work there, was a bouncer. wouldnt know trouble wise, but i didnt personally have any, the customers were pretty nice to be honest! MImi x who is your dad......? i might know him used to work there myself Scotty_78 24-06-2005, 11:03 As clubs go, it's ideally situated, modern and large. But it's not these factors what make a good club, it's the clientel. All i want tp do is have a drink a dance and a laugh without worrying about some wasted louts with a chip on their shoulder causing trouble for the sake of it. Kingdom is the perfect example of this! The_Sharp 24-06-2005, 11:31 Fair points Scott, fair points. Location i agree with. And it is large. Just a shame that its so pricey, and i wouldn't mind that if it wasn't so nasty inside. raskel 24-06-2005, 12:21 take it no-ones going tonight?
