    Road To the Grand National 2012

    Sunnyhillboy is in excellent form, is at least a stone well-in over extended distances and Tony McCoy has a raging hard-on about the prospect of the armchair ride the horse is sure to give him in April. We are just worried that the handicapper doesn't crucify him in the 2013 weights for an easy...

    It's Henderson time again

    Was about to post that, whilst certainly not a big fan of Henderson, he's hardly in the O'Neill class for putting you away, when I realised that there was a certain common denominator....

    The Totegoldtrophy/Betfred trophy/Betfair Hurdle

    Not content with jousting for the trainer's title, PN and NH have a private bet on who will be first to recreate Mr Creosote :lol:

    The Price Of Beer

    Agree, all round sensible and decent bloke, which is why he left frontbench Labour politics, where kindred spirits were/are pretty thin on the ground to put it mildly. Nightmare scenario for DC would be Darling coming back as Labour leader.

    The Price Of Beer

    The tiresome Scots Nats are flogging this line to death in their efforts to turn the English public towards Scots independence. Problem is, it's the Scots that don't want to go

    Mrs Brown's Boys

    Anyone not laughing out loud at times during last night's edition must be a serious miserablist. OK, it's embarrasingly corny in places, but in others it's feckin inspired.

    "Not passing judgment" - really?

    That was Nightjack, a serving copper whose blog won a national prize. It was a tremendous read, but was taken down when he was outed by a scum journalist called Foster. This story is doing the rounds again at the moment, linked to the Levenson inquiry.

    "Not passing judgment" - really?

    I think it's about time they were passing judgement - why should costly and, crucially, finite resources be wasted on what Kri has rightly called puking pissheads? Some entirely blameless individual could die, and probably has, as a result of the appropriate crew being elsewhere tending to the...

    Help please

    Struggling to get beyond outcomes, which sounds a bit American (not as bad as the awful 'deliverables', though,) and results, which is a bit feeble

    "Not passing judgment" - really?

    Agreed. Channel 4 relies on these cretins (the drunks, not the paramedics) for half their programmes, so they don't like to pass judgements. Next up is a family of permanently rat arsed benefit claimants doing up a property that they're squatting in and having a bake off against a similar...

    Female Trainers - on the up?

    Understood, just wondered whether, taken as a whole (please), they're actually better at training racehorses; empathy, emotional intelligence, all that stuff Take the point that getting owners on board is certainly easier than it was
