New Casinos - Are Any Heading To Sheffield?

Recommended Posts

Sheffield united have just requested planning permission for a very large one built onto the back of the south stand, it has the support of the local residents and some of the council, the only other place in sheffield is near the don valley stadium, there is plans for one there but i don;'t belive there as advanced yet.

Dunno why the govt. don't build and run these casinos, that way all the profits would go back to the tax-payer instead of being siphoned of to American billionaires, and it would be a way of re-deploying all those thousands of civil servants Gordon Brown is going to make redundant.

 

You only have to look at the extortionate levels of duty on tobacco, booze and petrol to appreciate the huge amounts of revenue to be gained from our other vices - why exclude gambling ?

 

State run brothels would also pay pretty well too, and remove all the dangers of predatory pimps and prowling psychopaths that prostitutes are presently subject to.

 

Sorry about that last sentence...my keyboard seems to be having a 'p' day :D

Tessa Jowell will announce Today that there will only be 8 Supercasinos built. (Therefore expect the one for this region to be built in Leeds)

 

This would coincide with what I have read which suggests Sheffield isn't on the shortlist for a Super Casino.
