O/T Wetherspoon Pub Chain to Sell " Rhino's " in Rotherham

[Ericsladkilnhurst]

We have been in the Rhino's pub in Rotherham today, and had the bombshell
news that Wetherspoon's are selling this public house.
I like a lot of supporters frequent the pub on match days & two or three other
days in the week.
Staff told me today that there were not any other plans for another pub
opening under the Wetherspoon banner in Rotherham, plus the staff not
knowing whether they have another Wetherspoon job in the pipeline, at
another venue.

Always seems to do excellent business.Wonder what the is? The old bank building at the bottom of High Street is a typical Wetherspoon type acquisition. I wonder?

It might be handy for a pre match drink but it strikes me as being a bit of a dump.

It has definitely needed a refurb for years.

Wetherspoon looked at this building last year, but decided not to use it.

Usually " spoons " sell / get rid of unprofitable pubs.

Rhinos is packed on match days no idea what it's like mid-week and Sunday.......another cheap pint ' bites the dust '

Maybe they'll hold out for the master plan rebuild of forge island...

What pubs are now left for easy away fans?

I think one of these would be a good pre-match venue

Blade and Timber axe-tossing bar ?

Hopefully they are using the Vegans it mentions as targets
