Surprised that Sun Internationals management, systems, marketing, integrity, financial reporting, parking facilities etc are not under attack from the forum commentators

So obviously punters are no longer going to the casino. In the UK whenever a shoe shop or a dress shop closees down you will see a bookies, a charity shop , or a cash loan shop opening up. What does not close is fast food joints, banks, and high street bookies (William hill etc). Seems that the SA public have their priorities right.

I have gambled and been restricted on EVERY single online site in this country and can honestly say that sunbet is the crappest online website that has graced the internet.

I would however be surprised if they contribute more than 0.1% to the groups turnover .

1700 is a heck of a lot of people. At 8-hour shifts that is 570 tables. I wouldn't have thought there were that many tables in the whole of the country never mind just Sun International. Or perhaps tourism, generally, is down?
