good stuff lukeyboy, enjoying this.
in your absence, i would like to thoroughly embarrass and humiliate myself by putting up one id be laying at sub 2s today - battle of britain can be layed at 2.9 in the 1:50 yarmouth. to anyone reading, i do not have lukeys skills, this will invariably dot up by half the track, but it may be worth a look. |

nice stuff, never really in it.
alternatively you couldve followed 'They' on the horsey forum and got the winner  |

Luckey Boy .. So you are the greatest layer on here .. one a day thats 365 over the year .. well would you fancy taking the zipper on 10 lays per day or make that 15 lays per day .. thats 5475 lays per year .. yes or no . will do .

Zip
He didn't claim to be the greatest layer on here. He asked if he was the greatest FAVOURITE layer on here |
|
By:
General .. i lay loads of favs .. any bookie would cry his eyes out if he could not get the fav in the bag for plenty .. any race every race . any day every day . .

This WAS a good friendly and successful thread up until yesterday , hope it doesn't degenerate in typical forum fashion and we let the thread starter continue with his so far successful lay strategy.
Please don't make it competitive and allow the lad to do his stuff , that way the thread will have an infinitely longer lifespan with no abuse and just friendly banter. Good luck. |

Here here. Well said Hayden.

I agree, please lets leave it to lukeyboy to crack on and behave in good order.

General Midwinter -
The fact he/she has stated they are the greatest favourite layer on here ....is going to attract replies ........so perhaps the fault lies with the originator of thread..... If they are the "greatest" etc etc ...perhaps they can post ON EVERY RACE WHETHER THEY WILL LAY FAV OR NOT.....then we will decide. |

WD on "selected" lays SO FAR..............

Inaccurate DFCIRONMAN
If you read the thread title again it contains several question marks at the end which indicates he's posing the question rather than stating a fact , also the request of posting a view on every race seems rather silly and a strategy more appropriate for the 96% losing punters on the site , this strategy will look alien to the average punter I grant you as the norm for punters these days seems to demand a bet in every race available. This thread is refreshing and a bit different so instead of attempting to force him into a style of betting that may or may not resemble your own just give him a chance to prove that his strategy may prove the better option for long term benefit , keep off his back and give him a chance I say. Good luck all. |

Good luck all. ================================================================= Not being "inaccurate" HAYDEN.....only reacting to a thread that is making a statement.....the questions marks after it m,ean he/she is confused...... To state they "are" the "greatest" implies they are capable of making a decision on EVERY race.............that decision might be PASS on bet. Nothing wrong with that ...but we have nothing to compare by such a BOLD STATEMENT! If he/she is the greatest etc etc......they should be capable of tackling EVERY race ...if they can't .....then their self awarded title means very little indeed! |

If he/she cannot decide on EVERY race ...they are not!

Well let's agree to disagree then mate and leave it at that , the thread title still looks like a question to Me however many times I read it and don't understand the obsession with every race for the life of me , this guy is posting something that he thinks will work for him and tbh who gives a toss about all the other races , also the refreshing part is that these sort of threads almost exclusively post lays over 30 and trust to luck they don't hit a winner for as long as it lasts but this one is a bit more novel and realistic as it doesn't depend on an almost perfect strike rate to succeed.
Anyway the fact we disagree is immaterial tbh and the thread belongs to Lukeyboy so therefore we should accept it's a max of one fav lay a day and he shouldn't be cornered into producing something involving every race which sounds a waste of time to me. That's it from me on the subject but all I say is it's his thread so he's entitled to do it his way and give him a chance long term. Good luck DF. |

I apologise lukey and HAYDEN....had "some" firewater tonight ...got home saw DAVID CAMERON has somehow become the PM with less than 33 % of AVAILABLE VOTES.......was angry at the fact the LIBERALS have taken an "easy" option" of watering down the importance of PR......they should have binned both of em and highlighted to the people of UK just how intransigent the 2 parties are re PR......
Nothing wrong in what you are doing lukey ....other than wave the red flag at some who believe perhaps THEY are the "greatest" etc etc .....and to some like zipper ....who KNOWS he is the greatest I only posted once before when I saw you select HARBINGER........lukey and at the odds you are selecting at ...1 wrong out of 7 is pretty damn good ...so wd I've sent an e-mail to LIBERAL HQ....and I was "slightly" more aggressive in my comments there................ Apoligies again ...and GL with continued success on thread! |

Top man DF , in all honesty I feel guilty posting several times myself and only posted initially in response to the zipper request to challenge the world and it's dog so no more hi-jacking from me.
nice response that DF , good stuff. |

whoa!!!!!!!! what the hell's been going on here?
only just got in and see that all hell's broken lose on my thread!To Zipper; no thankyou mate, I'm a Layer not a backer, I specialise in what I think are weak favs and prefer just 1 bet per day To DFC, I am indeed asking a question in the title of this thread and not proclaiming myself to be the greatest at all!! |

Zipper, here's some good advice for you; ZIP IT!
|
|
By:
lukeyboy how do you decide which favs are a good lay? do you sit and look through all form/ statistics etc and then come to a conclusion on the best one to lay?
i would love to be able to do that but just dont have the knowledge of where to start best of luck |

By:
Luckeyboy .. have some respect for your elders .. .. when you get my age 99 years young .. you dont take advice .. you give advice .. its up to them if they take good advice on board or not ...

I remember the 1793 Derby, Lord Grosvenor came up to me an' said
'Young Zapper, what thinkest thou of the chances of my arch rival Sir Freddie Pool's nag' 'Well, your Lordship' I replied, quick as a wink, 'I think he's as much chance as a pox-ridden wh0re of entering the Kingdom of Heaven.’ ‘Lay, lay, lay to the hilt, and thank young Zapper when you’re a rich man come suppertime.’ Of course young Zapper forgot that the old nag was mounted by fearsome jock Master Willie Clift, it romped home fully 5 lengths clear and young Zapper had to make for the woods sharpish with a pack of his Lordship’s hounds on his heels. Even had to change me name. Back the champs and lay the chumps, or they might just spit you on 10 inches of cold steel – oh yes. (It’s only a bit of fun – no offence Zip)  |
