I have some very sad news regarding SportsItalia and appreciate that many of you already knew and out of respect have not posted it on here and I thank you all for that.
The landlord, out of the blue, actioned our 2 month license which ultimately has forced us to close, permanently. There was never any issue with money and we fought the landlord, offering 50% more pa and a whole year of rent up front.
Alas he did not accept and we probably fell victim to the hatred for the motor trade. We had not upset him and regularly consulted with him as to any issues we might be causing. A slight moan about the amount of cars on site but were assured it was not an issue.
The knife wound for me is still open and bleeding but they say time is a great healer.
We will be back but probably not this year.
Customers have been in tears upon collection, seeing all the equipment being torn down.
We thank you for all your support over an amazing 5 years and the feedback has been that we did it right.
