Have you ever seen a major built that finished on time and on budget?

No acts should have been booked or advertised until the place had been completed and thoroughly tested.

Some of the people who have shelled out large sums of money on travel, hotels and tickets should get together and sue the fuck out of whoever is responsible.

Pity Barry Manilow wasn't one of the first acts, saw him in Vegas some years back and he was utter tripe then.

I was wondering if Barry Manilow had to re-schedule, could his fans get free co-op funeral care instead of keeping hold of the tickets? Totally for compensation purposes.

They got Pep in to see if he could work his magic but the brickies just passed bricks along the line, then back again, ad nauseam.

Killing the excitement in bricklaying, the bastard. They should have got the Rags in to throw some random overpriced bricks into a pile to see it they fell in the shape of a building.

Having worked for them a few times over the years, they're the biggest fuck-up merchants going.

Or some Liverpool ones, chucking them 30 yards up to one of their colleagues running at full tilt.

Also offer free face lifts and bottox, he looked like he had just been in a wind tunnel when I saw him.

CIS are the worst employer I’ve ever had.

Personally, I just feel sorry for the fans who’ve been looking forwards to these concerts for a long time. I’ve never seen a couple of my favourite bands before so it really can be a one off experience.

What an absolute shambles.

Co—oops!

The CoOp brand is certainly being put through the wringer today.

Still maintain everything will come out in the wash in terms of the venue but still a major set of fuckery in terms of planning (and I don't agree with those who state it should never have been built).

Coop stores are amongst the most expensive 'corner shops' going. Pity those who used to have these as their only choice to shop in the locality.
Always felt a bit hoilier than thou, but a bit of surface scratching (exorbitant store prices just one example...).
