"I finally got a reply from Betfair and my ban is permanent with no chance of being revoked so that's me done with the forum.
Tell the chit chat folks who posted messages that I thank them all for taking the time to do so but it's adios from me."



I hope whoever is responsible feels pleased with themselves

Unbelievable when you consider some of the other posters on here. Sick decision.

Pathetic decision, would love to know who the roach was that felt it necessary to make a complaint, all I will say is if he does come back on another account there is a good chance that he will be left alone to continue posting.

Slippy Blue banned, i just can't believe it, he has never said a bad word to anyone, in all the years he has been on here.

I'm appalled.

Well, quite.

This is what Slippy said.

I called Rishi Persad a complete embarrassment to the sport on the horse racing forum and some dickhead reported me for racist behaviour

how on earth can THAT be deemed racist behaviour, if it is we are all in trouble.
By:

well it can't, that's why it's a mystery.

Slippy believes it was this post that caused the offence as it has since been removed from the thread...........................

"How many people from the sub continent do you see at the racecourse though? Or for that matter in your local betting shop?"


hardly BNP standard is it

That's really Draconian...
Surely Betfair in our Enlightened Society we deserve the Right to Appeal.

As a mere onlooker there doesn't appear to be the slightest hint of Racism in what was posted.

I think a lot of people feel that as Rishi divides his energies between several sports his racing
opinions can seem somewhat shallow on occasion.

Seems like betfair have just given up on the forum and want to  let it die.  A bit cowardly of them to not just close it down but to instead just ban new accounts and totally refuse to acknowledge the ridiculousness of slippy blues banning.

Rishi persad is on twitter.  Dont very much know how twitter works, but is it possible to contact him personally via twitter?

& say what Rob, by the way someone called you an embarrassment to racing & got banned for saying it,  could you have a word with Betfair to get him reinstated Plain

I don't think he'd have any sympathy for someone who called him an embarrassment to the sport no matter if true or not. Laugh

I can't believe he has been banned for something trivial.

Slippy, you really are one of the gents of the forum and I hope you get back on here soon.

I haven't posted for a while because I need to get a new laptop, but I do still read the forum most days. I'm sure I saw somebody posting on here this week who had a March 2014 sign up date. It may be worth trying to open up a new one if you haven't already tried.

Good luck mate. CoolCoolCool

Take care Slippy, we'll all be in the same boat soon, because it can only be a matter of time before the forum goes for good.

As far as I am concerned I would think there are  no racist undertones from slippy in that comment its just how he actually  sees things.

Persad should have been kicked out of racing after his 'sorry, but we must hurry  you there  as we are nearly out of time Sir Henry' comment during his interview with the obviously wilting trainer after Frankel had run his final race.
