hind**** is a marvellous gift

"If you'd backed every horse with GB bred parents (i.e. Sire and Dam) in GB Turf races with 14 or fewer runners over the last 5 years you'd have made a loss of over 4,000 points at SP - and a profit of over 1300 points at BFSP!

BFSP can randomly turn moderate statisticians into apparently good ones. It's no guide at all".

"Rinsed" is a British slang term primarily meaning to be thoroughly defeated or mocked.  It implies being roasted in an argument so badly you have no comeback.

Literal/slang combined example:  uptheirons has been rinsed more times than [b]Rico/b]'s one and only pair of Y-fronts.

Sam Aritans:  How can I help you today?

Caller:  I can't resist posting obscenities on a public forum with references to male genitalia which are often misspelt...please, please, help me!!!
           
Sam Aritans:  Thanks for reaching out.  The simplest solution would be to use a spellchecker.  Bye!

Can you do the maths, Harold?....Spoiler: Show

Focusing is the act of concentrating mental attention, effort, or energy on a specific task, subject, or object.

A prime example of not being focussed:

Posting consecutive replies on a public Forum within two minutes of each other.

Had that individual been attentive, focussed, calm and collected and organised then the replies could have been combined and posted in the first reply.

I can't help but wonder if the attention-seeking deliberate misspellings, in particular deliberate misspellings of male genitalia and regular references to snickers launchers, E Wreckshuns and glory holes, are signs that he may be suffering from coprographia.

What is Coprographia?

Involuntary urge:
Just like other tics, coprographia involves an uncontrollable urge to write specific words or phrases, often obscenities or socially inappropriate content.

As true today as it was 7 years, 8 months and 27 days ago...

✦  AI Overview

The Racing Post website and app have faced significant criticism from users, particularly regarding recent interface changes, increased paywalls, and technical performance. Many users have described the updated platform as "cluttered" and "not fit for purpose," often expressing a preference for the older, more straightforward design.

Key Areas of Criticism

Poor User Experience: Users have reported that the new app is "clunky," with some noting it has become difficult to use for analyzing race forms.

"Bloatware" & Clutter: The site is often criticized for being overloaded with advertisements, heavy affiliate links, and excessive "next-generation" features that slow down performance.

Increased Subscription Costs: Long-term users have expressed dissatisfaction with the shift toward paid content, with some describing the cost of the full package as excessive.

Anti-User-Friendly Design: Comments on platforms like Trustpilot and forums have described the interface as having "a mind of its own" and being harder to navigate than in previous versions.

Focus on Monetization: There is a strong perception among users that the design prioritizes advertising and prompting bets over delivering a clean experience for studying racing form.

Independent Advice: Some reviews suggest that there are better alternatives for betting tips, though the site remains a major source for in-depth data and news.
Historic Regulatory Action: In a separate, unrelated incident, the Gambling Commission previously chastised the publication for its conduct regarding editorial content.

Despite the criticism, some users have noted that the site still provides essential data, but the overall sentiment from a portion of its user base has been heavily negative regarding the user experience and rising costs.

Here's some interesting Trivia on all 48 managers at the world cup, the most interesting being is that the England and Scotland manager share the same birthday! And Ralf Rangnick was born on the same day as the 1958 World Cup final.

----

No foreign manager has ever won the World Cup, and only two have reached the final are George Raynor of England, with Sweden in 1958, and Ernst Happel of Austria, with the Netherlands in 1978

14 of the 48 managers have previously managed at the World Cup.

They’ll be 6 Argentinian managers at the world Cup managing Argentina, Paraguay, Ecuador, Uruguay,Colombia and the USA. There will be 5 French managers and 4 Spanish managers.

D*ck Advocaat (Curacao) will be the oldest ever manager at a World Cup (78)
Nagelsmann (Germany) will be the youngest manager at the World Cup (37) - still 10 years older than the youngest ever manager. The youngest coach at the football (soccer) FIFA World Cup is Juan José Tramutola (Argentina, b. 21 October 1902) aged 27 years 267 days when he co-managed Argentina at the 1930 World Cup in their opening game versus France in Parque Central, Montevideo, Uruguay on 15 July 1930. Argentina reached the final in the inaugural World Cup - the only other coach under 30 years old at a World Cup is Hungarian Gyorgi Orth who was in charge of Chile at the 1930 World Cup aged 29 years 77 days.

There are 4 managers at the World Cup who have never played Professional football.
-Julian Nagelsmann (Germany)
-Mohamed Ouahbi (Morocco)
-Sébastien Desabre (DR Congo)
-Sebastián Beccacece (Ecuador)

The average age of all 48 managers is 57.3 years old.

Most common birth year for all managers is 1973 (6 managers), 1963 (5) and 1966 (4)

2 sets of the 48 managers share a birthday
-Graham Arnold, 1963 & Hajime Moriyasu, 1968, (3rd August)
-Thomas Tuchel, 1973 & Steve Clarke, 1963, (29th August)

August is the most popular birth month for the 48 managers with a total of (9), followed by September (6), February and October (5)

18 managers were born in the first 6 months of the year, 30 managers were born in the last 6 months of the year.

5 managers will celebrate their birthdays during the World Cup
-Vincenzo Montelal, (Turkey), 18-Jun-74
-Luis de la Fuente, (Spain), 21-Jun-61,
-Ralf Rangnic, (Austria), 29-Jun-58-
Tony Popovic, (Australia), 04-Jul-73
-Roberto Martínez, (Portuga), 13-Jul-73

Tony Popovic was born on the same day as the World cup final in 1954 (July 4th), albeit 21 years layer
Roberto Martínez celebrated his 41st brithday on the same day as the 2014 Brazil World Cup final (July 13th)
Austrian Coach Ralf Rangnick was born on the same day as the World Cup final on the 29th June, 1958. He also celebrated his 28th birthday on the same day as the 1986 World Cup final (June 29th),in which his country, West Germany, lost to Argentina.
Spanish coach Luis de la Fuente celebrated his 9th birthday on the same as the 1970 World Cup final
Carlo Ancelotti was born on the same day as the 1934 World Cup final, albeit 25 years later, his country Italy beat Czchoslovakia 2-1 after extra time.

Of the 1248 players at the World Cup, there were only 8 days of the year where nobody had a birthday, July 10th, August 2nd, August 30th, October 13th, October 28th, November 19th, December 9th, December 28th - however, one of the 48 managers does have a birthday that falls on one of these 8 missing dates, Sébastien Desabre, (DR Congo), 02-Aug-76

Of the 44 ex Pro players, 3 were Goalkeepers, 15 were defenders, 20 were midfielders and 6 were forwards.

29 Managers from the 48 at the World Cup have been capped for their countries, 19 managers have never been capped - which include the four who never play Pro football.

21 Managers from the 48 at the World Cup have scored for their countries, the remaining 8 managers who were also capped, never managed to score.

Only 4 managers played over 100 times for their country
-Hossam Hassan (Egypt), 177 caps
-Fabio Cannavaro (Italy), 136 caps
-Hong Myung-bo (South Korea), 136 caps

I can't help but wonder if....

(a) the resurrection of topics that have not seen the light of day since Adam was a lad,
(b) the attention-seeking deliberate misspellings, in particular deliberate misspellings of male genitalia and regular references to snickers launchers and glory holes, and
(c) posting 'hey, look at me' screenshots and other references to my Lifetime P/L on Betfair,

are all signs that I may be suffering from both OCD and coprographia.

FYI, coprographia involves an uncontrollable urge/obseession to write specific words or phrases, obscenities or socially inappropriate content

I certainly seem to tic(sic!) all the right boxes!
