Interesting views, my post was not a dig at John, as I totally agree John is a fine host but as the I understand he has left again, so I put Grahams name forward as the only other manager of the Bull who I think did a good job and as the Ranmoor inn is often taken to be the one which now sets the benchmark in the area, well I know from talking to Nigel that he too thinks Graham was a good manager and a loss to the trade in Ranmoor.
I also agree with the comments about too many people entering the trade who really don`t have an idea of just how difficult it is to be a success in the license trade.
I think the comments about forgetting to renew licenses shows the owners are inept at best but as the to-let signs are up again I don`t think the license issue applies here.
It a shame more of the 600 or so who have read the post have not left a comment or vote.
Thanks to you who have
