Jim McGrath - Is He Trying To Break A Record?

Sycophantic drivel in the main.

Had to be forcibly ejected from the commentating role about a decade ago, yet still reading out the RP spotlight half-cut on TV five times a week...says a lot about the racing media in general tbh

Rather listen to McGrath than the lunatic Chapman.

I wouldn't but I concede it is a close call.

I don't think croc says what he wants to say,he starts of and by the times he,s coughed,spluttered and splattered his way through what comes out at the end bares no resembalance to what he wanted to say

I have no idea how much he lost but I couldn't believe how he kept banging on about that 7lb claimer. The horse was beaten half the track.

Back for day 2 and all the trimmings ..

At least Thompson is basically confined to doing the same commentaries now at the kip Yarmouth and one or two days here and there....Jim is suddenly on the ATR rota more than Fitzgerald...its almost a wind-up to test the sanity tbh

atr short staffed, chappers,luke, weaver, hayley all on itv 4.

...and Thompson away doing the bucket scam in Abu Dhabi.  ATR are short of bodies.

Sycophantic drivel in the main.

The bump diary working overtime again, BOR-ING!
