  1. I wonder if how the way Westland RC went about their liquidation whether that has slowed down other tracks being euthanised?
  2. moving chairs on the titanic...
  3. so only now a 'odds' on chance something unbidden will happen???
  4. a good example of being broader in scope is this page... https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100031031482382
  5. On a intellectual level should one really seperate that sort of thing! I Bet to make a profit! I watch races for enjoyment!
  6. I could make some comments about that! best not to as often when one shares insights along that sort of line, there are always unbidden fall outs for the people who have come under his gaze....
  7. this approach seems to work best in a Industry that is very hierarchically driven. lol! throw in Sunset as well... seems to work well in the present! not that great in the long run!
  8. Perhaps more so slowly withering, faster out in the Periphery, not so quickly in the Core. Hence very much a Sunset Industry. No amount of propaganda can change that! As I mentioned above, the ever challenge is to find some fun without getting all bitter and twisted about the decline! Any truth that poor old Brian DL gets up every day and spoons in the bile! 😝
  9. lol! it's a Sunset Industry! no Names can turn back time... to me, the challenge is how to squeeze some personal fun out of it!
  10. 21% you are welcome to that. I use to run a game where the house got 20% (Alley Pool) and it was nearly embarrassing how much the house stole.. only the very elite players ever got ahead.
  11. Pardon 🙄 25% take out on Q's,, way more on others? = Rip off! Mug Bet$
  12. why??? he is Total WIMP!!! Personally! I can wait to be standing in front of him!!! one day 'boy genius!!" we will see how tough the cretin is then!!!
  13. you really are a ignorant .... did you read the latest polls!! Jacinda now 500m in front! there She goes!! Over the Last! 3 more Years... meanwhile! the tory simple simon leads the right to a Massive LOSS
  14. quote: "The Messara Review is a book of 82 pages, and the probability is that very few people have bothered to read every word of it and digest it properly." It was a load of shite! a crude attempt at fostering some Centralism to the Core areas of Racing!! It went out of it's way to alienate just about anyone who wasn't in the core!!! ps, Sunset Industry!!! the last two years have only speed the process up!!!
  15. if you think Brian has the answers! then you had better re frame you question!!! Factually wrong: "Like all race clubs throughout New Zealand, the cupboards are bare,"
  16. have you shares in the club! if not! perhaps not your business!!!
  17. Opps, I spelt his name wrong Paul Bittar. To me, I really like his Industry Racing Facts! he laid our for others to see what the state of the industry was in! He was Totally approachable! an ozzie too!!! He went on to head British Racing! with praise! (google him), not to sure what he is doing now?
  18. About lack of media being put out by the likes of head office. Other sports have been getting 'their stars' out into social media and main stream media! She is correct of course! It just another reflection of 'lack of nous' re the industry in general! NFI!!!!! ps. How many Jockeys have a social media presence that you know of!
  19. believe! Hone is way smarter that winnie... based on long one to one with both!
  20. You must be spewing aye in kopialand!!! lol! cindy is now paying $1.02 to be the PM going into next year! where as your mate simple si, actually, you come across as a one of those! howling at the moon! entitled! pompous born to rule troy twats!, is this you Simon! In to histories dustbin for the likes of him! how sad! 3 more Years! 3 more years! 3 more Years! got a nice sound to eh!
  21. she did post a 'critical post' via her fb page... I pointed out perhaps it would be a good time to go to her Jockey Assoc and get them to up their presence on social media. Talking jockey's!How many have a dedicated social media page?? if not why not! I
  22. that sort has come along! eg Paul Buttar... he was quickly off to better things though! nice guys with it too!
  23. personally! I have u$e them well! but am only talking in a 'nickle and dime' fashion. Fun to play with!
  24. Thanks for the question, i needed to think about it before answering. The short answers is Yes. Now! here is the twist! what with me suffering from a bad case of 'historical blackballing' from key clubs and players! I presume you know I have a fb MF acc and run the cwj fb fanpage. Both!! were set up 10 years ago as examples for others in Industry to follow! Nope! Speaking of Clubs!!! sigh, there is a Massive uneven development across the Industry! None are even close to getting 10% of use out of 'social media'. The latest trend, say last 10 years, You must have degree to get any 'real role in Industry! They often have 'family connections' to Industry No real nuance to what is needed! Don't get me started about Race Day!!!!!!!!!!! Fecking Pathetic! and that is the best example! lol! I'm actually quite bitter about it!!! Enough prattle! only here as a email came in from CS that seduced me back into the site! If by chance you have a personal connection to a small club then I am happy to talk to you!
