We pay for Racing yet the BHA ignore us and fiddle about while our sport suffers, the latest example being whip use, its not broke so leave alone. They should be looking at supplying sectional timing, cheaper entry to courses etc, if you look at racing abroad and the facilities offered it makes me want to cry.
For once instead of sitting back and moaning whilst they destroy our sport lets act.
A 1 DAY BOYCOTT OF ALL BETTING SHOPS AND RACECOURSES.
I'm sure this could be arranged thro Twitter and Facebook, as we couldn't rely on the press. Thoughts please as if we don't act now we will have only ourselves to blame.

Festivals and saturdays make up around 90% of my betting these days

Cracking idea Tindooi - good luck. I haven't been to a racecourse since the 90's when I thought it was expensive to get into Sandown for £8 having just been to Arc day at Longchamp for £2. What a good decision hat was as look at the prices now. As for the BHA decision on the whip - what a joke - if hey want to kill the sport that's the way to go.
To compare us with racing abroad is hardly fair on the BHA....abroad they dont have bookies lining their shareholders' pockets...instead more of the money goes back into the sport....British racing hasnt got tuppence to rub together right now, so calls for sectional timing and cheaper entrance fees could hardly be less timely. And as i'm broadly in favour of the new whip rules, you'll not be surprised to hear that re. the strike I'M OUT!
im in another day off work gets the thumbs up from me[;)]
duncan - racing gets nothing from entrance fees. That goes straight into the racecourses pockets. As for you views about the new whip rules - I despair.
Cracks me up to hear how expensive it is too get in to a racecourse.Anyone been to a football match lately ?
who cares is all about betting nothing else go join the tuc
LOL stake
bilbo, agreed (and thus to their stakeholders) and the fact courses are all having to meet tariffs now etc means not great time to be asking for cheaper entry imo
