Whats the story?

And where are the three teams from there relocating?

It's still open, but not as riley's

The company that own Loop Bar in croydon along with loads of other clubs. Loop bar was just a one off, though.

It's staying open till the new year where it'll be shut for about 3 months for a 'makeover' :P At the moment though it's staying as is except they have more fruit machines, an ITbox, a soccer machine and a roulette machine too!

The prices are also going to change. I think, but am not too sure, it's going to be something like ?4.40 an hour and between 10-6 it's half price at ?2.20. They also want to keep it open 24hrs. Anyone up for a 'late night' session? :P

yeah, i work at the club in redhill now though. left thronton heath about 4/5 months ago.

It's not going to be anything like loop bar, apparently. That was just a one off to see how it would go. I also heard the English pool tables are getting fixed sometime soon.... No more bouncing pockets! :clap:

May not be the case here, i have been informed that no final decisions have been made yet... I read that to mean, nothing is ruled in or out...

the owner says he's not making it like loop bar because it isnt making as much money as he thought it would. apparently when he gets the refurb, it's going to be green ceiling, cream walls with hard floor.

Those hard floors certainly come in handy.
