They’re all the same Glasgow all wind and P…..

Not a good book maker then.

I thought he came across badly. Never good to come out with 'our sport' reference. Us and them stuff - man the trenches. They rarely, if ever, get anyone on to put a differing view. So you get no real debate - how does that move anything forward?

I give scrap a 24/1 winner and that’s the thanks…….dreadful individual… The day will never dawn where I would back a horse on the opinion of a lifelong loser,Aceform. Fell free to post your bet if you wish though |

What's pertinent here are the views he was espousing on the show, not his authoring prowess. In terms of welfare, 'betting harm' and how to deal with nut jobs like spencer. Pretty rare on this show, which usually aligns with the politically correct.

It IS 'us and them' stuff. It is essentially marxist, they want to change everything and they don't care how they will achieve it. As I stated, you can't have a rational argument or debate with such people, who are driven by ideology. Like Black said, whatever changes you make, racehorses will die racing. So you either have to accept that, or agree that it should be abolished.

The likes of hannah spencer won't stop canvassing for likes from the dim if you reduce the number of runners, make fences smaller, or shorten the races. She'd be back on line the next opportunity that presented itself.
Luck going on and on today about the industry needs to come up with alternatives to affordability checks. What a load of bow locks. As long as betting exists, there'll be people who bet too much for them. It's an insoluble premise. But that goes for Maccy Ds, weed, holidays, fast cars, and everything else people waste their UC/pip on, or rob to fund. |

Unfortunately affordability checks are here to stay…..gambling ((all kinds of) is a vulgar word to the neutral.

You never know, we might eventually get an elected government that doesn't outsource all responsibility and decision making.

Reform aren't perfect, no politician or political party is. But they are the best prospect we've had in many years. Which is why the establishment will try everything in the power to stop them, legitimate or otherwise.

BLACK can take his share of credit for the racing game dying in front of people eye, BLACK provided a platform , more a cheats charter where the no 1 lifelong rule of punting wa broken,wether through, FAT PICS, DRONES,GPS ETC ,it now possible to lose money when the option of winning has been taking away,
punters no 1 rule if you cant win you shouldn't be allowed to lose, BLACK invented something which broke that and at same time made it easy for those privy to inside info to bet horses to lose |

He didn't create ptp betting, or the concept of laying horses, he simply perfected it by combining single market liabilities, and producing a brilliant UI.

1st time thinker seems to be confused today.
It was the greatest thing to happen for ordinary punters |

By:
Ordinary…..they got wiped out you fool.

By:
Walk around any betting ring and ask the proper bookmaker what they think of the machine as they call it…..
|
|
By:
A lot of financial heartache and no doubt ruin,and it gets the Risen treatment instead…..
Not a shred of guilt… |
|
By:
Not a shred of Aceform posting his winning bets either

Updates on the ludicrous Affordability Checks seem to be his only contribution and as the GC totally ignore the views of people who do gamble they will continue in their desire to stop people doing what they wish with their own money

Someone might point out that eating on a chat show is not a good look. I wouldn't mind Channing so much if he did actually offer something different to the industry love in which is all the show is about. Doyle is incredibly boring to listen to - why book her? Isn't it about time Beckett was on again?
|

Think we managed about 3 weeks without Channing so was fully expecting the worst so switched off at 9.02,sound like I missed nothing.Luck for some reason seems determined to give him a leg up. They have some politics podcast Luck endlessly promotes.

Lots of Labour connections to rtv as far as I can deduce. When the Tory lot had power, hardly a day went past without a snide comment about the Con government. Of course, party politics hasn't been brought up since Starmer's wife was 'spotted' on the racecourse, so nearly two years. That 'the paddock' thing is linked to politics joe, same thing. And Nevison popping in to Ealing weekly to collect his pension. 'Newsboy' another raging lefty. Plus of course LH, I'd be astonished if she wasn't a big Labour supporter. Lee M also.
I suspect Mellish is more sensible but has never been political on rtv in a party sense, more of a straight speaker though. The Dixons probably similar I sense. These people might well be public about their political persuasions on SM, but I don't use that so wouldn't know. Pretty obvious with Y8s getting his pension from the mirror. |

I thought Oli Bell might be ok, but he was talking some crazy nonsense about how the racecourse doesn't look like the middle of London. tfft, Oli.

If Labour and Mr Khan were serious they would have put the boot into those Croydon ferals that ran amok in a Croydon street rampaging and stealing from food retailers eg Marks and Spencer, Greggs, etc. In America the shop owners eg Chinese and Koreans would be using firearms to protect and defend their stores.
But, the composition of the Croydon ferals is too politically valuable and racially sensitive for either the Labour Party or Mr Khan to counter head on. |

Decent show today.
