Khun Ling Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Ben made a lengthy post on the old forum outlining why Pattaya bar business was hard and he thought it was only going to get harder. He is not stupid it seems. Has Secrets PP been sold yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I don't like the sneaky anonymous nature of Candaman's post I've met Ben a couple of times, and wouldn't put myself down, as a mate of his or a member of this imaginary Ben cult that the anonymous poster has come up with. I have sympathy with his ex employees but investors, sorry no. If your buying a chunk of a girly bar in PP, your not buying a share of some blue chip operation, with clear(ish) governance, ethics, accountability etc. For what it's worth have been in the bar in PP a few times and thought it was excellent. Managed to enjoy myself, with the band and the company- strangely who owned it, did not weigh heavily on , as an ordinary punter why should it? 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it's not about Ben, it's this forum being used as a platform to gossip about and attack any individual. As already said, f**k on and post it on the Secrets forum, where it would be more relevant. Nothing to do with here. That said, I came onto the thread the other day when i seen it was bumped to thank the Mods and Admin for keeping all the Secrets shite to the one thread. Then I read the as you say, sneaky anonymous posts by Canadaman which had me cringing, so I made a post about his gossiping, he responded, so then so did I. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, which Is why I don't think that the success or failure of Scooters will have anything to do with what has gone before. I doubt that most of the customers will even be aware of it. If I like a bar, I'll use it. I really don't give a monkey's bollock who the owner is. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RR007 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Am at a loss completely as to what they're relaunching as exactly. Even by current catastropic visitor numbers September and October was always even in good times sparse in numbers due to monsoon rains. There cant be a worse time to open or reopen.
