Simon Rigby the owner of North west parking , going thru a bad patch (boo) closed his care homes down , got rid (closed down most) of his betting shops , and now people who have performed at his "guild hall" in preston (bought from preston counsil for pennies) are doing a winding up order on him
2 separate companies fighting to get this done before the other ,
BKL, which staged Blood Brothers at the venue last September, said it had also served a statutory demand on March 19, over an alleged debt of nearly £70,000 ticket sales.

Feel sorry for the staff and residents of the nursing homes, somewhat sorry for the staff at the betting shops. Seems he's kept the biggest money earners open thoughI'd rather be an Optimist and be proved wrong than a Pessimist and be proved right.0
