citybabe Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 There is a rumour going round Ashton Vale at the moment that the Robins pub has been closed down permanently as it isn't making a profit - It has certainly been closed for the last two days. I thought that I'd post this on the forum as I know a lot of City fans drink in there before home games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MaloneFM Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 The alcohol tinged Woolworths. They were all sobbing about it closing and why doesn't the government step in to keep it open. But its a shop. Its supposed to make money and I can't remember the last time I used one. If the Robins is a bad as its said here then its only a matter of time. Shame I know but the Ship has gone and the Wedlocks. To run a pub these days it has to keep a decent turnover all year not just every second saturday in winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
