      Jan turnover numbers

      Reality is that the TAB Bookies are clearly under instructions from bosses to not let serious punters on for anything other than small amounts! Was speaking to a serious punter the other day and he couldn’t really believe how little he was allowed to wager on his own horse. Welcome to the world of the NZ TAB fixed odds betting, started out ok with Entain but has seriously deteriorated to the point where only the smaller punters, losing punters are welcomed as well as the off your face Thursday night presenters. Anyway make the most of the next couple of years of Entain contributions cos after that, like it or not it ain’t going to be flash . Brodie unfortunately on the money unless someone can come on and tell us that Brodie is wrong?

      the point i made was cost cutting can often be related to a company looking to cut costs when profit margins aren't  as good as predicted. i get what your saying,cost cutting can occur even when that doesn't apply. but i also gave the example in my previous post of the tab racing club.  You appear to say"why wouldn't they cut that cost". Well,when you've heavily publicised something and got 18,000 customers involved,then one day,just as the promotion is taking off,you pull the rug out from under them and say to those 18000 customers,nah,we've changed our minds. Well thats very poor if they did it for the reasons you give. Hey,maybe your right,maybe that is how entain behave,very poor if it is.I had thought entain may have done it because of the reduced profit in australasia  due to the$100m they have had to set aside for the austrac  fine.
