First things first.
We need to be clear about the rules which tend to change a bit each year. You can select in any GB or Ireland race on Sat BUT the selection has to be on ud`s thread by 4.00PM. There is an exception for this week ONLY as it is The Breeders Cup. Selections can be made in that and for this week the cut-off time is 8.00PM. I assume the one hour rule still applies.
I think everybody has been very good about posting their selections on this thread recently. Thank you and please keep it up. It does save me a lot of time on Sat afternoon when I do quiote a bit of trading so my time is limited.
We are not doing as well as I would like recently. We still have an outside chance though as there is an 8pt bonus for the team with the highest profit over the year. We were always going to have to pick up that anyway. If we can keep in touch over the next 3 weeks then we go for it in the last round. So play normally for now.
Finally barny has gone missing. Hopefully he is OK and I seem to remember him having long-term internet problems before. Tbh I am reluctant to recruit again this year so if he doesn`t show up we will use wildcards. The wildcard will automatically go the team member with the highest profit the week before. Amazingly that is me this week. I will use it on Sat if no sign of barny.
Come on HUMBUGS !

Can somebody take over the captaincy for the next two weeks at least please. I have had a horrible loss and may close my account. I am going to think about it for a while.
|

By:
sorry to hear that salmon, i'm not around enough so hopefully someone else can pick it up. hope you've not laid a biggy in america, read you so many times saying you shouldnt be playing there.
|
|
By:
just read the poop deck thread, ffs salmon cant believe you would lay something at that price.
|
|
By:
Oh I do. Think that`s the longest I`ve lost at though. Managed to lay Drosslmeyer as well. Not as bad but hardly a confidence booster.
|
|
By:
Salmon, cuople of months ago I laid a 180-1 winner
got it all back with in 10 days As you know I lay the longshots like yourself Its the ONLY way I can make a profit on here last week I laid a second at 750-1  Irish prices can be 33-1 SP Yet over 500-1 on here but the form says 500-1 is the correct price All the best to you what ever you decide to do |

By:
W/D the Dealer
Fantastic Price |

Salmon
Lampus is telling porkies about his laying no one is that mad Please stay on the forums I enjoy reading your posts |
|
By:
Sorry chaps. I spat the dummy out last night. My worst ever loser. But actually I had been on a very good run for about a month so I am just back to where I was 2 weeks ago
So it`s business as usual unless you feel you can do without an over-volatile captain. |
