snap jiper   10 #1 Posted December 23, 2010 My girlfriend's sister who works at the Casbah Nightclub says that the club will be closed down very soon, apparently the owners can't afford the rent. Shame really, cuz it used to be one of my fave places for a night out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

RED ALERT   10 #7 Posted December 25, 2010 This is looking like the last ditch saloon for the Cas.it might not make it until the end of january!if any1 is interested in keeping this piece of sheffield history open then i suggest frequenting it more regular and putting some money through the doors so the amazingly high rent of £3000 a week can be met!or if any1 knows the consortium who now rent out these buildings until there's an upturn in the property market and redevelopment of the area begins again then ask them how they work their figures out!surely a lower rent would be better than no rent at all????
