RANT CORNER

[Derek27]

Just watched the BBC news. The argument put forward is that £2 wouldn't give gambling addicts the fix they need and simply drive them onto online gambling with higher limits.

Bullshit. So we should allow our pubs to let people drink to oblivion and the risk of death because they can easily just go to the supermarket.

This decision has really pissed me off. Problem Gambling is too complex to make small assumptions not to change.

The question is... why do they allow bookies " prominently horse and greyhound betting" use that platform to encourage people to bet on FOBTS"

FOBT'S are not like racing. If you cut the stakes not all will look elsewhere, alot will stop. A lot are not interested in racing at all.

Got it......you changed from the club crest to someone representing the skill level of Adkins

[Naffman]

Hahaha!!

We are so hit and miss at the minute - win against Norwich and Ipswich then get thrashed by Birmingham

Anyway looks like you lot will be joining us soon

I'm sorry but I'm getting really sick of seeing races being delayed 5-10 minutes because horses don't want to go into to the stalls

Surely a trainers job is to make sure a horse can safely enter the stalls and be as relaxed as possible whilst in there so the race can go off near the official off time as well as not affecting any other horses already in the gates

It seems there is absolutely no emphasis on trainers rectifying this issue and its about time they get fined if it continues to happen

If they do it too often they have to go for a stalls test I think. No pass no runs, that seems to be strict enough.

Argued this so many times. We need trial races and horses who don't load in a reasonable time don't get to race until proven, I also believe it will make fewer non-triers.

We're all here because of a "business" centered around money, but this just gets me, to the point of seeking out this thread (thank God I don't use social media and could rant there!). I'm generally okay with people coming in to money spending it however they see fit, even if I don't agree (and think they should use their status to affect positive change, partly, instead) but this one has my stomach turning. As well as checking it isn't April 1st.

150k for a f***ing key. Get over yourself!

eBay buyers, "No Returns Accepted", 2 days later.. "I need to return this item", "Local collection not possible", Question: "I know you state in your listing about not being able to collect but I live (nowhere near you) close by and wondered if could collect it if I win the auction?"

You think you got something to rant about?

I was just getting ready to start US trading when my neighbour lost all power due to what I think is a faulty meter, so I had to entertain her for two hours while her mother called round to pick her up, and that was the end of my US trading.

Saving grace is that Randwick and Caulfield start at 3:00.
