the galah Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 All the doom and gloom may be understandable given the negativity the stay at homes rules bring and the economic impact it has and will continue to have on peoples current mindset. But the reality is racing will continue and with this crisis will come opportunities to put in place strategies needed to progress. This thread indicates what has become apparent for some time now and that is there is lot of blame,name calling and division within the industry. Unfortunately that s lead to the perception that we are not working together in a productive,healthy and cohesive way. Hopefully this crisis can see the realization and motivation of the need to work together. We need all sectors to be unselfish and realistic.Transparency goes hand in hand with that. We do seem to lack someone with the leadership skills and charisma to sell a future vision of unity,confidence ,prosperity and empathy for all the wide ranging interest groups racing has. Lets hope this crisis proves the catalyst for the courage of leadership to make the correct decisions and hopefully in years to come we look back on this period and reflect in a positive way. This crisis can lead to decisions that translate into many future positives.Its not all doom and gloom at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 The doom and gloom has been around for ages, it hasn't just sprung up after the rainfall last week, or since this Chinese flu hit the shores. I have generally been reasonably positive about the racing game, but the last few weeks, when leadership needs to be shown, there has been sweet FA shown from HRNZ, or RITA. I'm not so certain NZ racing can recover. I hope I am wrong. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 And there is no guarantee at all, that NZ racing will continue. Not long term anyway. Again, I hope I am wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Diceman's Been Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 A couple of others wanted it more than I did. Well, that's not quite correct. I wanted it a lot, but the scrotum hold applied by my wife when I went past my budget meant I couldn't see the screen for the tears in my eyes..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
