Would obviously think so. They must just pay rent to the arena for the premises I would assume.

I'm not 100% on this but I think it's a franchise type arrangement.

What's the casino like.
Meeting a couple of Wycombe fan mates before the game for a pint or two. Never been in the casino, is it free entry? Ok for away fans?

Haven't been in for a while but it's fine in there.
Average (ish) beer prices (When you finally get served)!
Normally pretty busy and queuing for drinks can take a while!
Normally got 4 or 5 roulette tables open plus other cards going on (black jack, 3 card poker etc).
Always a mix of home and away fans and is free entry.
Can wear football shirts but will be asked to remove hats if your wearing one.

Hope this helps?!

I would guess that (as G Casino is a national brand) it would be owned by way of a franchise. So in this case I'd say they pay ACL an annual rent for the sauce and the owner of the business would be the profitee

Not so average prices since they hiked them up this year - now 4.30 for a coast to coast beer. (It's the only beer on sale other than Guinness).
If you have bags or are carrying items such as flasks, you'll probably be asked to leave them at the reception desks.
Atmosphere always chilled out - people simply doing there own thing

I've been in once seemed ok but don't have much to compare it to as had only been in one before in America, I can't really trust myself in there so tend to wander by.

On non match days you'll need membership (or a form of ID to enter as a guest or register).
Match day though is a free for all, as long as your 18+ or look it!

If so, take them in The Mill, just inside main entrance. It's part of the hotel. Away fans fine in there

Not sure if that's a serious Q but you're bound to - sell all spirts, and serve a couple of good Unu session beers. Good atmosphere as well, and better with kids. Serve food as well - better than the casino. Can get a bit full sometimes.
