Jennings

Genuninely wondered what he does, bar blowing smoke up the @rse of the great and good of Irish racing.

He'll land on his feet with some lads, lads, lads type of organisation if true.

If Emmett Kennedy can still pay his mortgage off the gravy train then there's hope for many more.

DJ was not binned he left to go to a cracking job with 2 very very shrewd guys.
Ronnie.

who and what?

DJ tweeted this:-

Tomorrow is my last day at the Racing Post. A massive thank you to every trainer, jockey, owner, and everyone else I dealt with over the last two decades, for being so generous with your time. I've had a blast. It never felt like a job. Onto the next chapter now. All the best, DJ

Shame. He was good value at Cheltenham for on-track gossip from the Irish camp.

typical inaccurate and small-minded reaction from the begrudgers who hate everyone doing better than they. which is the large majority

jennings always good value and better than most

The only thing 'typical' is having a pop at someone for having a different opinion to themselves.

That Cheltenham show was good for only Jennings and Dineen. Turned it into a comedy farce. Woefully short on anything of quality.

saying hes fat is unnecessary

doesnt blow smoke from what ive seen

and brings in someone else just to have a go at them. again unnecessary. kennedy good value also imo

hear it all the time about gravy train. its rubbish. and typical. see posts passim


i dont typically have a go at someone for having a different opinion. never seen chelt prog

Wheres he going?

The only bigger waste of money the RP employed was his sidekick, who at least has mild comedic value. Neither could lace the boots of a Kealy, Wilders etc.

Kennedy is an insufferable man child...don't tell me you can listen to the clown's podcast,busyfool

dont listen to them

only going by what ive seen on twix


dj mildly amusing and much better than kealy. he puts up selections with no prices. not good enough

Melrose (aka Mr Bean) is a serious omission

Big cost cutting going on at the Post,i reckon there has been a lot of subscription cancellations after the catastrophic re make.

How on earth that buffoon Rodway is kept I don't know..and alli can say is Maddy Playlet must make a great cup of tea!..

Another domino falls as Liam Headd tweets:-

Today marks my final day with the Racing Post. It’s been a brilliant four and a half years, and I can’t believe where the time has gone.

The last two years, where I was fortunate to be Lambourn correspondent, has been fantastic, and I’m looking forward to the next challenge

Melrose looks and behaves like MrBean and is blessed to remain in employment

The gravy train definitely exists. See Apiafi and Nevison for example. Shrewdies apparently....

And Pitterson, he drives the gravy train.

Never had a problem with people trying to earn a living, meself.
Obviously some do.

The gravy train pulls out of the RUK station every day with three on Saturdays.

100%

Anybody not aware of the lack of backbone and cahonas generally among those that cover the sport arent looking hard enough.

David Jennings' last article (on disliking draw ceremonies) and tipping piece are in Saturday's paper. His final tips are:-

Sir DJ
2.30 GP Fad Eadrainn
3.05 GP Blood Destiny
3.40 GP Frankie John
4.15 GP Quantum Quest

He's heading for a new job, not Dignitas ffs
