interesting read, but surely nobody is dumb enough to be that close to a massive bet... that aside, it's all a bit odd

75? What do they do, ffs?
At a guess, it's £12m a year business. It's understandable, therefore, to have a workforce of 75-100, including casuals on the hospitality side of the business.

Didn’t their owner own Oxford a few years ago?
