damophoto   10 #29 Posted November 24, 2012 More than 600 jobs and 78 clubs at Rileys Sports Bars across the UK have been secured after the company has been bought from Administration by private investors.  The move safeguards snooker, pool and sports bars around the country and will allow the name, Rileys, one of the best known in leisure and sport in Britain, to continue on the high street.  Regrettably 146 jobs will be lost (44 full-time and 102 part-time) and 25 clubs will cease trading as part of the Administration process which is overseen by KPMG.

yorky15 Â Â 10 #31 Posted January 19, 2013 Anybody got any idea what the (once Handswoth Plaza) now defunct bowling alley/snooker hall at Handsworth is going to become? I have noticed some work being carried out there recently with skips being filled etc. Just curious! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Heard that also, but wouldn't details of any planning be required to send to nearby residents as theres bound to be objections largely due to parking issues    Posted from Sheffieldforum.co.uk App for Android Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bypassblade   10 #34 Posted January 19, 2013 Heard that also, but wouldn't details of any planning be required to send to nearby residents as theres bound to be objections largely due to parking issues   Posted from Sheffieldforum.co.uk App for Android  Lets be fair, before the Sword Dancer & Aldi were built, that area was going to be a big mosque. It's just rumours & hear say at the moment, we'll just have to wait and see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

yorky15 Â Â 10 #36 Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) Yeah, I checked that also, nothing for No 1 Richmond Road pending. I feel the mosque thing is just speculation. I agree that it would be a really bad area for vehicular parking for whatever use the building may be used for. It would be better used for a gym or some local activities for the young and not so young. I will throw it open for all your suggestions. What do you think?
