Apparently Sam Hoyle (Jo's ex) has taken over the Shambles this Whitby too, so no DV8/Other Side. Chances are he'll try to run that into the ground and spoil it for everyone too.
I meant taken it over as a venue for Whitby, not bought it! Even with the money he's creaming in from the Leisure Centre and Rifle Club markets, I don't think he can afford to buy a whole pub/retail complex.
Do we actually know that this is the reason that the other Side is not running this October? I imagined that Mr DV8 might need time to regroup a little after the rather extravagant recent York festival and have chosen to sit this one out, but maybe I'm wrong and you know otherwise.
