A SUPERPUB'S bid to open in Prestwick could be heading for court. Objectors to J D Wetherspoon are considering a legal battle with the national pub chain. And the costly clash, involving QCs at the Court of Session, could scupper the bar's Main Street move. Wetherspoon, who faced a public backlash to win planning permission and a licence, are now bracing for a long fight. The news comes in the same week they withdrew their application, but insisted they were still committed to the Prestwick project. A Wetherspoon spokesman confirmed: "We have withdrawn our current application, but this is only to alter some finer details. "The current application allows for us to include a beer garden on the premises, but that is not something we want. "So we plan to resubmit another application in the coming days that reflects this. "However, we do not anticipate this delaying us in any way." But the superpub move, which has split residents' opinion, could be set to erupt in the courtroom.
