Would you close the Chit Chat forum or the local Bookie ?

I know many will have plenty bookies close so won't really bother them

But people who live in small paces with one bookie

Many punters/Pros/Experts etc  might not even use Bookies now ( me not much )

So what you choosing Chit Chat trash talk or local trash Bookie talk

Sent my missus in yesterday to nick me some pens and do her National bets.

4 online companies were paying top 6 in the National, loads were paying top 5. The big 4 high street bookies were the only ones paying top 4.

My local Corals closed a few months ago. I was putting bets on in there when it was an independant in the late 70's (still in my school uniform, no think 21 policy back then!) A great shame as the regulars I have known for 35 years I know I'll hardly ever see any of them again Sad

Another reason bookies are dying also people can bet online and chat on god knows how many social media sites ( rules out meeting up in that terrible cold ).Used to be good at the bookies and im only in my 30s but the younger generation wont get that daily feeling of grinding out a wage on the gee gees Laugh Go home at 16 and tell the parents the dole / wages werent in the bank so the digs will have to be put hold on until i get up and running.Where you been ? eh a  Job Interview
