like I said in the original thread - it brings nearly 450 jobs to the town - not a bad thing is it? and it will/may also bring folk from out of town to accrington to shop..so you may have the scenario where the markets actually see more customers due to out of town tesco shoppers going for a wander round and the people who use the market now and always have done will no doubt still use it when/if tesco is there...
you hear people say that there are no decent jobs going and there are no decent shops in accrington - but when someone wants to build a shop here folk complain and dont want it ....doesnt make sense..
