No wonder this forum is now devoid of any good posters. The hate fest of people is at best sad, certainly bigoted and at worst disgusting. Filth without substance scribbled on here from some should be taken to account.

I don't get all this negativity for almost every pundit on either side - Luke brings a light heartedness to it all and aint afraid to laugh at himself when the need arises - lighten up peeps

I've met Luke several times on course and at Selhurst Park, like me he is an avid Crystal Palace supporter and I can only say as I find, he is an extremely amiable and pleasant person.

He is far more entertaining than most can laugh at himself and others. He would appeal to someone who is not an avid racing fan and at the end of the day if ITV want more viewers this is where they will get them from. As we see with many sports lack of terrestrial free coverage long term leads to dire consequences for the sport. Casual viewing figures in real terms have fallen off since racing lost the fun element provided by the old Channel 4 racing.

My son has met him several times when the ATR people come over for the Punchestown Festival and said the guy is sound and great craic,talk about people putting down one of your own,he knows he was a mediocre jockey (At least he had the bottle to get up there) but is doing his best to lighten the TV coverage which we all give out is way too stodgy.

He's harmless enough and probably one of the best of a bad bunch, I love the way he manages to do most of his dialogue by just reading the form of the horses out.

I thought Harvey was a harmless clown until I happened to be watching ATR in Jan. The top American jockey had one of the most horrific-looking falls I have seen ( his injuries proved to be career-ending ) and all Harvey could do was laugh his head off at the mournful tones of the commentator " I bet he backed the favourite " was his punchline ffs. To his credit Weaver to all intents and purposes told him to shut up.

Some people on here take things far to serious.
The thought of someone having a joke and a laugh is beyond them.
100 % agree !
