  1. NZHERALD "He will appear in court for sentencing on August 27, where Jones indicated Molloy would apply for a discharge without conviction."
  2. Gendall has been around for quite some time. No way he was going to put up or be outsmarted by self a appointed smart a***. Just to put the record straight. The heading of this thread gives the impression I was banned on Channel X. Actually I have been unbanned. The tribunals decision has been devastating on Molloy. Don't believe the "I'm not worried" bit. The money not the issue but credibility yes. The word is it won't help Molloy's breach of suppression order hearing.
  3. You have to scratch your head reading the Te Akau website. So far they have had 5 winners at Singapore and each one of them have had the comment "first four or place chance with a bit of luck". If they ever got confident about a horse hate to think by how many lengths it would win by. Plus to the website. Minus to the tipster.

      • Haha
  4. To be on the safe side my advice would be to blank out SLB post if he has requested it.
  5. Don't know why you have to worry. Now I'm thinking LM obviously has plenty spare cash and given previous exploits of absconding or trying to abscond with personal info then hiring a hacker to get into emails a distinct possibility. SLB a few months ago couldn't figure how Molloy knew his personal circumstances. Nothing would surprise me.
  6. I doubt Leigh would have released personal info. If the email address is the same from 6 or 7 years ago then obviously Molloy has retained the database. That in itself is an offence don't know if criminal or civil. Another scenario is that LM has access to Channel X member database also some sort of offense.
  7. I was going to contribute to the thread SLB started but its gone. Not only Molloy banned from racing but I have been banned from Channel X for replying to Michael Pittmans post. Here it is. 16 hours ago, uneasy said: All the best tomorrow Leo. I know at times you have upset many people including me BUT this charge against you takes the cake, if people were funding from their own pockets I have doubts this charge would ever have been laid let alone get to a hearing. I also know that over the years you have done a lot of good in assisting many people who have needed you and your knowledge, they appreciate that and will support you. 👍🏻 ------------- I agree with most of what you are saying. But there is another side to the story. What about the number of people Leo has turned away from racing. You have a high profile and following in racing so Leo won't denigrate you. That's not the case when Leo thinks he can get away with it here on Channel X. He has admitted he enjoys digging into someones background, twisting it and unfortunately people due to his racing and business involvement people will believe him. i.e if Leo says it then it must be true that seems to be the theme here. That's the problem. There is no right of reply here on Channel X simply because the moderator will not allow contra Leo postings. Take the case of Sunline Boy I won't mention his real name but persecution of him has persisted for well over a decade the last posting a particularly vile one which even the moderator saw fit to remove. About ten years ago I got together a bunch of Leo's postings and submitted them to NZTR. No one took any notice but when their own CEO was denigrated oh how quick they reacted. Had the problem been acted sooner then the industry would have been saved many thousands. Leo himself could have been saved a significant 6 figure sum. If the problem is not solved now it will persist with more wasted dollars
  8. No you may be wrong there. At least the real Midget has a brain. Have to laugh tho whenever there is a negative posting on Molloy the moderator steps in with a hint like "easy to hide behind a username". Offcourse hiding behinds ones mate good name seems OK.
  9. I've always wondered how its possible for a horse to grow another leg when its a heavy track. Then it hit me. They don't gain one they lose one. I used to ride a small horse all over the place and was amazed how consistently it avoided potholes and such like. Turned out a decent wet track galloper. Perhaps thats one of the key elements of a wet tracker.
  10. The Mrs B refers to Michelle Boag. However the Mr X doesn't always want to be disclosed so lets just keep it a secret. Now the Mrs B and Covid data leak with the intention of harming the government was just too devious to be credited to Mrs B. Not so MrX. Being neighhbours and both wanting to crawl up the National Party staircase therefore a natural marriage and shall we say plotting.
  11. If there is some truth in what Leo is saying (and that is no ones business but yours) then how did Leo obtain the information. Thats the 64 dollar question?
  12. Chief Stipe. I saw that on Channel X. Got up to 150 views until taken down. its a shocker. Lets hope SLB takes it further. There could be case for police complaint.
  13. I was looking more at the RITA support via advertising. I don't know what the ex Informant crowd are doing with the breeders but seems a void at the moment where breeders can advertise. There has got to come a time when betting pools get aligned with products and services so using them as marketing tools needs outlets for advertising. What could be viable is a $3.00 publication with plenty advertising, (The $3.00 just to cover retailer and distribution). Some radio time in conjunction with sport and TV channel in partnership with some commercial organisations. Because RITA/NZTR/RacingBoard have been devoid of any commercial enterprise seems an untapped market.
  14. Reefton, what I have seen you are good at setting up structures. Therefore to get started some sort of structure that will encourage investors to back a racing media business. Plenty media skills sitting idle at the moment and with some concrete commitment by RITA to support it perhaps it could be viable. Just needs someone to start the ball rolling.
  15. Nice story good that you got him back after retirement. Notice the half brother Bob's Boy was pretty good. For the number of horses Andrew has had quite amazing record. Four horses have since run a faster 1100 at Otaki. Not wishing to stir the "pot" but one had to chuckle about the Mother Fokker gravy, jockey roast and the judge having a job deciding whether gravy was a sauce. Don't think the Mother Fokker product would sell well on mothers day though.
  16. Tim, if you get back and have the time love to hear the story on Generalk There is a story behind every galloper but most importantly some lesson to be learnt. Must admit can't remember the horse.
  17. Tim, Its not always a good idea to post with your real name. With search engines your content can show up alongside objectionable content that you strongly disagree with. That gives the trolls an opportunity and excuse to cast you in a light not justified. Thats my take on it anyway.
  18. Yes I have followed your episodes with Molloy for probably 14 years. I haven't seen anything remotely that would justify the vendetta and spite against you. Not only has it been irrational but also illegal. Clearly its the type of behaviour the Digital Harm Act was designed to prevent. For so long Molloy has tried to belittle, embarrass and denigrate you obviously its illegal but I realize the daunting task and hassle of starting legal action. Mr Carter if you saw all Molloys internet postings and the people he has hounded away from racing you would change your opinion. Like you aliases are used but after time most people identify the poster so please don't start copying Molloys example with the "nonames" put down.
  19. Generalk you totally miss the point. Just because Leo goes to Church Sundays doesn't mean he can break all the rules elsewhere because of that. Most people couldn't care what Leo does or has done but when it comes to social media certain rules, customs, behaviour needs to be observed. Molloy is easily the worst offender of breaking those rules I have come across. Then there are those that buy into Leo imagined them/us conflict and sadly you seem to be one of those.
  20. Agree. Disgusting seeing horses come to the last fence having to jump it almost exhausted. However the economics just don't add up. Transitioning horses from racing to show jumping or for hack could still occur with races for qualified jumpers on the flat. Given the number of injuries to riders both on raceday and at home, the level of interest both from punters and spectators plus all the costs its a no brainer. Jumps racing has to go.
  21. Its pretty well documented how terrible, illogical and badly thought out the whole platform venture has been. What doesn't seem to get attention is a call out of how the decision to go with the project came about. Who pushed for it and who authorized it. With that come questions about the whole way racing is managed. An army of board members, managers, consultants along with a trove of dummies. Not even a murmur from them of what went wrong? But hey racing just scored $72 million from the government so everything sweet now.
  22. When racing restarts I doubt there will be any SkyTV. So where does that put NZ racing. Its quite obvious SkyTV cannot compete with the likes of YouTube, Netflix and others. The only reason I've ever had Sky is because racing. Russian TV is getting a bit tiresome. There is just nothing worthwhile on SkyTv even before the virus. Plain and simple SkyTV is dead. Why should racing follow down the same path?
  23. Yes. $9000 yearling.Small. Hard ridden recent trials. Perhaps someone on the computer seen ages ago won trial sub 60sec for 1000. The horses in that trial were stretched across the track none of which any good. That said the horse today went to line reasonably well so probably exceeded my expectations even though well beaten.
  24. Don't know if many follow WA racing but the first race at Geraldton has got me head scratching. Why did from the get go bookies make Rubillicious Rose the favorite??? Being a bonus race no doubt the bonus addicts will go betting on the favourite. Maybe they know something I don't. Anyway still looking.
  25. You are fifty years too late. Or have you been saying the same thing all that time. Perhaps its time to shut up the horse has bolted.!!
