Towcester racing is a complete bore. Harlow a shambles of a track. Waste of time adding to RPGTV.

Still people are getting very picky...should be grateful there are Greyhounds are on telly

I also remember people criticising the Bookmakers when Towcester was taken off BAGS...

Now it seems the Bookmakers are not the only ones not happy with Towcester??????

Poor old Lord Hesketh he tries so hard, had a few problems with his Motorcycle I rememberSad

agree 100% with casemoney

imo RPGTV should go back to 3 nights a week and then do 3 quality shows like it used to be rather than 6 gash ones like we've got now
get rid of the pedalling gravy trainers like dave clarke aka hobbsys apprentice...everything is amazing blah blah blah adds ermmmmmm nothing to the show

i think you lads are being a bit harsh.

the production of the show just has to be on budget - racing uk is 20 odd a month and i cant see tina or burrawatti emailing in any more if they start charging for it.

yes harlow wouldnt be my fav choice of track but i needed a race into him and i cant get to the track very often with racing and family commitments - having rpgtv on is really helpful, as if it wasnt available i can nearly certainly say i wouldnt have dogs again as i couldnt go and see so whats the point - and how many others in the same situation? knock on effect is less dogs bought, breeding game gets another nail in the coffin, less turnover on the races, and the show doesnt break even and gets binned etc.

ultimately, i dont like the motives behind rpgtv - the bookmakers are not doing it out of the kindness of their heart, they want as much bingo racing as possible and the dropping of coventry to replace it with henlow on a sunday was a disgrace. but, there are still dogs on tv, they are still someone elses pride and joys they may otherwise not get to see and no one is forced to bet on it - dont fancy it, dont bet on it.

tbh i cringe when dave clarke is on it as well, so i tend to watch it online where i can just mute it, but each production isnt done for free it still costs, and if you arent making it a subscription, which it surely cant do, then it has to be done in other ways. a budget studio, with jay kay wearing a tight cotton rpgtv polo shirt wrapped around more spare tyres than a kwik fit garage, average presenters and loads of naff cheap adverts is still better than no racing at all, and i for one wouldnt be buying dogs if rpgtv wasnt around. we have moaned in the past how every horse race is on tv and no dogs but for every fortnight on sky, at least its been addressed, and really, is it any worse than attheraces? its the same principle i'd suggest.

i'd certainly rather have the programme than not at all.

The only problem as I see it is the bookmaker driven saturation.   Years ago, Hackney was the one meeting on a Saturday morning broadcast in betting shops, and a fare few people used to go in just to watch and bet.  People got to know the dogs, they could study form because of the 17 or 18 minute break between races. Then Crayford was added, then afternoon meetings, followed by evening meetings. Barely any time between races, and nearly all of it 7-2 each of 6 dross.  People lost interest.  I can only speak for myself, but the extra nights do not necessarily mean I'll be watching more, especially when the quantity seems to be prioritising over the quality.

when did Bookmakers ever do thatLaugh

Sorry Addy I could not resist itBlush
I agree with a lot of what you sayHappy

I am sure we would all like top quality racing on all the time, but that is not always possible, we can't always have cream
and people like me just want a greyhound race to bet on, I wish we had last night's meeting on Christmas day evening rather than nothingSad

Still we are all different...I think people expect too much sometimes

Bookmakers do have a habit of over doing things..if something shows a profit they always go over the top..
If they ran football they would have a World Cup every two weeks

I have my BAGS, but I was glad to see Harlow on

When it ceases production and it will as the sport falls further in to decline (not helped by you lot downing it all the time)and you are watching coronation street you will look back and say 'you don't know what you've got till its gone".

You are right SGE people should just not watch it, though I guess most are just annoyed with RPTV giving it the title super tuseday

I never bother watching on weds and will add tues to that list

I luv henlow best track for me punting by far

But most on here seem to hate henlow
