is churches moving into the casino ?

Postby bayman » Wed Nov 14, 2007 9:48 pm

i believe that steve churches (thorntonsportsbet) is negotiating with the casino to relocate there

now churches has got friends in 'high places' which could eliminate a lot of the red tape

has anyone else heard anything ?
i thought secret groups were a thing of the past, well not on websites anyway

Skycity is currently trying to get rid of Adelaide, there have been a couple of potential buyers in the recent past.

It will be interesting to see if Churches gets into the Cas, but then he might get booted out with the new owners...........whenever they come along..........

reading the out of the box* column in today's tiser that Angle Park could be the new host of the Audi. If only the law is changed to allow it anywhere other than Morphettville

Few things would make it hard for any betting firm to go to any casino let alone Adelaides.
Governments in No state of Australia allow bookies to operate anywhere bar a racecourse.
Tab would have to ok it, Won't let internet betting in not sure they would allow bookie into casino, as well as getting government approval.
What would be in it for the casino? Either very high rent cos turnover tax wouldn't be a good as filling any space up with more pokies!!!! Which then bookie would have to wonder if it would be worth being there.

If a Bookie goes to the Casino they would want one with credibilty.
The name Thornton should therefore be a no no to get in.

I cant think of any.
