Is nearly 7 minutes long but has about 30 seconds worth of information in this friendly propaganda piece.

No mention of the clubs being shafted or if they are fighting back.

I am over videos - write a statement for everyone to digest or HRNZ summarise what was said .

7 minutes of waffle is exactly that - give us the facts and in writing .

Just watched it Happy!

Just absolutely nothing from the CEO of Harness NZ!!!!!!

FFS, Phil Holden will be on BIG MONEY and yet he has done absolutely nothing or said a single thing that can give anyone Any confidence, that he is the right person for the job!!!

How many hours has he put in for his salary and seriously, apart from being a good mate of Ken Spicer, he has got nothing!!

He is a few months into the job and all he can do is APOLOGISE for not having any details???????

What is HRNZ actually paying him for, and if he was only an interim CEO, why on earth has no effort gone into finding a fulltime CEO, that has got the best interests of harness at heart?

This fellah has shown that he hasnt got the goods and he is intent on keeping the chair warm for as long as he can by doing a few hours per week!

Very Very dissapointing effort from HRNZ who clearly have lost the plot and are continuing to let the industry decline!

RIP harness racing!

Same old story of trying to fool someone with thinking the medium of conveying the content is more important the content itself.

It is a trendy continuation from lockdown, a great way to share the message to our stakeholders blah blah. Well, it isn't if you don't share all the hard work one does in detail. 7 minutes is a pittance.

Can HRNZ give us a written report or can nobody write in Birmingham Drive .

Millennials - who are generally now the age group employed at HRNZ - seem to not appreciate that the harness owner , supporter and follower doesn’t play video games and generally does not do uTube or lame amateur videos - gives us a written report to digest !

Longowner they can not give A written report.

There is nothing to report,

As Happy says, it is blah blah blah, and no detail at all on anything.

Next week all is revealed apparently!

Can hardly wait.

A video TIk-Tok Snapchat Tweeting Instagram is a great way to hide one's illiteracy!  Also easier to say "oh that was taken out of context"....

I think mofo is slang for motherfucker.

Once again Whiplash displays his impeccable pedigree.

That maybe correct as Millennials are a very sensitive bred who do not accept any criticism.

They are of the view they know everything and invented the none specific very general let’s make everyone guilty of something term Woke.

When are the big announcements happening? Meant to be this week.

Nothing on twitter or Lincoln Farms website. Aren't they the official channels for distributing important information?

Had been wondering about that as well, although “next Week” has not finished yet!

Auckland are racing for better money than they were and yet no announcement?

They say they are able to pay the increased stakes out of their Pokie money which is clearly a good earner for them,

Problem is, that if our Lefties/Greenies have their way, there will not be pokies around, as they think they are the root of all evil,and the vulnerable are tested!!!!

That will put the cat amongst the pigeons for many hospitality industries and sports wont it?

12th August was the last chatting with the Chief.

Then, Mr Holden said 'we will keep the comms up even if we have got nothing to say we will say we have got nothing to say'

He must be too busy fixing harness to communicate progress with the plebs or does permanency of position have something to do with it?

 

Permanency? My pick is that he won't apply for the CEO's job when it is advertised

I predict that the CEO position will be advertised and filled before Christmas and an announcement made that the new CEO will work alongside Phil until 31 March 2021 to ensure consistency

Then in January 2021 Phil will quietly slip away but be paid until 31 March 2021
