Newmarket Posted Friday at 11:04 PM Share Posted Friday at 11:04 PM Anyone else attend punters club at Addington yesterday? Be interesting to hear others views, below are mine. THE GOOD…Food was great, buffet style meal, followed by sweats after. Savouries came out later, while pizzas were supplied later in night, full marks👍. THE BAD…Whoever set up the area, was not really catering for punters. Couldnt hear anyone talking on mic….had 4 small TVs similar size to those in my bedroom….one had a reality womans show on until we asked someone to change…. volume was hopeless, everyone struggled to hear races? $9 for a can of speights… bar didn’t take cash…. I know, maybe no big deal, but here I am sitting at home in front of a big TV with sound, thinking how lucky I am about to watch Riccarton races. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was dark and then when they turned the spot lights on later was hard to see the TVs. Food was great. You are right sound was terrible. I never heard a word the MC's were saying. They may as well have been not there. On a brighter note the punting was great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great to have these punters competitions to drum up business. Personally believe for them to operate more successfully and give the punter more opportunity and fairer, they need to be taking FIXED ODDS bets!
