Wee eck one last one from me and i mean one last one
years ago before Betfair certain connections were able to profit from non triers with certain bookies the zig was this ... in return for marking their cards with the non ziggers when they had a zigger they could be on to lumps. The inside bookie spread the liability around, everybody was happy but today the connections dont need bookies cut out the middle man , they play the exchanges. Hope this helps |

eck, I don't get your point. If I was a corrupt insider I'd obviously have to do my corrupt lays through other people's accounts (or I'd be pulled up by the BHA) but I'd have to own an awful lot of horses to have more than 150 gambles a year.

I hate to say it feck but you have to evolve, i hate all the skullduggery but i think you have have to accept it as part and parcel of it all.
|
|
By:
I accept it's likely nothing will be done about it roo but if it keeps on the way it's going the game is finished anyway.
|

By:
To be fair, you said that years ago and there's no sign yet feck
|
|
By:
TRhere's every sign stu.

trainers drugging horses
jockeys stopping horses for money but they're back in the game within a couple of years even if caught  |

what i dont understand is this feck
moaning on here but still putting thousands into each market how is that going to help "change" the game please |
|
By:
It won't. It will help speed up its demise though.

Can't understand your reasoning Feck. Are you saying because YOU can't get your huge bets on this means "the game is finished".Who is it finished for ? Owners,trainers,jockeys,broadcasters,betting shop punters ?Once a year Grand National punters ?Doesn't look like "its finished" to me. Seems to be thriving.

That's not what I'm saying artie. I'm saying while THEY can get their bets on corruption will be rife and if the BHA continue to turn a blind eye punters won't be doing the same. The game will therefore continue on its downward spiral as punters turn to other sports where they're getting a fairer crack of the whip.

By:
Im not sure about this but I think the number of race meetings has increased next year .Is that a "downward spiral" ?
|
|
By:
Does more mean better, artie?
|
|
By:
Get back to me when it's the prize money that increases artie. I won't hold my breath.

It's a big jump from " I'm fed up 'cos I can't get my ( large ) bets matched" to "the games finished" !

I didn't say it was finished.

If I said to you "if you keep smoking you'll ruin your health" is that the same thing as saying "your health is ruined"? |

Feck,
good evening. You'd make an excellent politician... why don't you apply for the Jockey Club ?  |

I didn't go to Eton halycon.

Won finds, high rank in the Army also helps !  |

I daresay a regular tuck hamper from mummy would also go down well with them.
