So long as they display it the Gambling Commission are happy. Shows what a waste of time and money they are.

Suggest capping their pensions and they'd probably spring into life though....

Surely nobody bet a fifth, Dick Turpin would have been embarrassed.

There are certain embarrassments to the profession who bet 1/6th odds every race. I doubt they would do any different on the National.

A bookie is just a pickpocket who lets you use your own hands

lee oppenheim is probably the most hated bookie in the ring bar none except perhaps money without work!!

Some bookmakers are as straight as you could wish for, i know i work for a man who called a punter back because he had given 200 too much.

Chris Squire was betting a 1/6 odds a place in a 16 runner handicap at Newton Abbot last summer. Taking advantage of the holiday crowd like that is the** of the highest order.

Well done.

Keep naming and shaming and make this a permanent thread.

Are you sure you want to go down this route lads? Nigel, we all know good books and bad books. I don't believe that a man should be pilloried and held up as some kind of crook because he bet a fifth of the odds on the National.

Especially by those who choose to remain nameless on a public forum.

We all have our own ideas as to what constitutes fairness. There was one bloke at Cheltenham who bet 1/6 th of the odds on 16 runner h'cps and payed only 3 places. I would suggest you concentrated your firepower on this sort of thing. If you disagreee with Bill and Paul Colley's way of trading then I think a quiet word would be far more appropriate than attempted rabble rousing on here.

I personally couldnt agree LESS. If i had my way i would have them on CRIMEWATCH.

Agree with Paddy. If you start calling people crooks for operating within the rules of their licence and the law of the land, you are going to be up for slander.

While I may not agree with what some of them do & wouldnt do it myself, this is going too far.

Nick agree up to a point but dont you think we should be trying to portray fairness in the ring.

In any line of work if you are a blatant rip off merchant then you expect to get exposed..... agree it all determines what is a test of fairness....... and again we all know that people are free to do as they wish.............. there is a clear line between fair and unfair though where certain individuals are concerned

Paddy..... what you fail to realise is that when the Racing Post expose these rip off merchants in an article one day (believe me it will happen) all on course bookmakers names will be mud and all tarred with the same brush

Do you want that? Of course you dont far better to try and shame them on a forum like this in the hope they clean up their act
