I assume he is the manager or franchised. I don't know what's happened to business nowadays. It appears you can bankrupt a company & start up another one the next day. Same with all these footballers that made bad investments then declare themselves bankrupt & keep their multi £million homes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chips 872 Report post Posted April 10 A lot of anger towards the ripping off p***k and rightly so, I know a couple personally who were scammed by him. The boycott the wheel inn fb page is certainly getting a lot of attention too, I just don't know how this is going affect the current workers there now though. They like most of us need their jobs, but could be in doubt now because of the negativity surrounding the new owners. Don't blame some of the kitchen staff walking out and getting alternative employment, looks like they've jumped from a sinking ship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HOODLUM65 2,063 Report post Posted April 13 How can a disgraced pub owner walk out of one establishment and shortly after walk into another? Surely the licensing board at P. K.

mad saints fan 91 Report post Posted April 13 Apparently the Lovat was under a business name where he was director. The Wheel Inn is now under a business name with his wife named as director, so I guess that's how he's managed to get in without any objection, he pretty much works for his wife...well on paper anyway.

Yup registered with companies house as his wife being a director... fecking farse Just adding again that I don't know how they're going to keep the place running. As already advertised that some of the staff have left by choice, now so have the darts team. They've chosen to play all their remaining fixtures away from home rather than set foot back in the place. Edited April 13 by chips Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
