Has found it too difficult mixing writing for the Post/Weekender and betting so he's going to concentrate on the latter.

Who is going to the ATR slow picture investigation now . Hope Matt's good work on this doesn't go to waste
|
|
By:
in hell.......sarcasm lowest form of wit
|
|
By:
he had a tough job to find the winners nearly everyday, he was ok but the work load might have got to him in the end
|
|
By:
I hope he is not punting for a living.
|

By:
Bloke was joke . Started the ATR thing and never followed it up . Very little respect for him here
how is that cardiffc for you |
|
By:
perhaps now he is a free agent - he will tell us the true tale.... hey eclipse?
|
|
By:
in hell...........harsh but true
|
|
By:
Expect eclipse to come on and be able to speak his mind without the RP Thought Police on his trail
 |

Would be nice to find out |

Is top2rated in any way connected to his client Matt Williams by any chance. The answer'sno. I just thought people might be interested in the news which is in both the Weekender and the Post this morning. |
|
By:
well im completely heartbroken. This is devastating news.
|
|
By:
Maybe Matt is gonna go out with a bang and tell us about Imi & Atr Extra. I cannot belive that eclipse wasn't on our side over this. I just think that he was silenced and threatened with the sack if he didn't shut up. Now that he has bin sacked anyway he can tell us the whole story[;)]
|
|
By:
good luck to him. A dedicated trier.

By:
unbeliveable news, over the moon i am!

|
By:
fair play...that's extremely witty.

To those of you who bothered to write some kinds words, thanks very much, I appreciate it. To the likes of Cardifffc, you will be sad to learn I left the Racing Post on my own terms and with plenty of goodwill. I hope the paper thrives in the future, because there are plenty of good people there.
As for the ATR delay, I tried my best for about week but it was basically a non-story, anyway, if what I was told was correct. Take it easy boys, and to the good guys on here, bets of luck for the future. Matt |

By:
basically a non story
You sad, patronising excuse for a mickey mouser. You got told to leave well alone and you did. Now they've repaid you with the plank Try not 2 bellyflop |
|
By:
Sorry to hear that. Despite buying two copies of the Weekender every week, I never read Matt's column, but as with the British Museum and the Royal Opera House, it was nice to know it was there. Best wishes for the future.

I put that line in especially for you, guido. Thought you would like it!
|
|
By:
One word sums you up in all this mate, [>o]coward, absolutely 100% yellow. Even as you walk out the door you aint got the gnoads to tell us what happened
|
|
By:
Obviously, Guido, I would prefer it if people didn't think of me as a coward and yellow, but you can't everyone, I suppose.
|
|
By:
*please
|
|
By:
Eclipse is Matt Williams,Ybor City is Pete Harris. And so that brings us to the anonymous hardman known as Guido. Who are you ?
|
|
By:
all RP readers wanted was an explanation from ATR why the picture delays returned, the fact they said nothing makes it look suspicious, why didnt the RP say its a non-story with reasons?, its a big deal to many punters/readers
|
|
By:
Ah, Mr Harris, how are you doing, pal?
|
|
By:
eclipse...........think youll find i said you seemed a nice guy and wished you luck......
|
|
By:
Rider, I did more or less say it was a non-story at the time. If I genuinely thought there was something iffy, I would say and I certainly wouldn't be bullied into keeping my mouth shut about anything I believed in.
|
|
By:
Oh, ok Cardifffc, apologies.
|
|
By:
very well thanks.Can't get a letter in the Post. A personal ban from Bruce I assume.I appreciate the honest writers. I think I can spot the others !
Every winner bar one at N.A. trained in Wales last night. There's a story but my "superiors "can't see it. Your piece about the golf struck a chord. Backed one at Hex last Sat called Hair Of The Dog at 46. It went 2 clear between the last 2 hurdles and traded at 2.6. I remained on the sofa.That does call for a wac ! |
|
By:
its paul kiely and mark winstanley i think the post could lose without much loss to the paper
|
|
By:
Pete
If that's how you write, I can understand why you don't get anything published! ha ha x |
|
By:
eclipse , dont let them get to you . i find it hard going through one h/cap a day without going through 100s .so matt hope things go well for you i wasen't always in agreement with you but at least you did your best .take heart and move on to better things in the future all the best mate .
