Do not disturb a sleeping snake

Your post was full of practicality and common sense, one of the most enjoyable posts I've ever read on here.

I can understand how you feel though, sometimes it makes you wonder why people like you would bother?
Good to know how much forum friends like EC1 enjoy Slims one liners eh?

Especially when 'one liners' usually gets EC1's back up when directed at him.......

why shouldn't i enjoy Slim's one liners?.he has given me plenty through the years..thats his style..sometimes i bite like Tanlic has..and then get stick from people for being a mardy arse

why single me out by the way?

i don't notice you ever sticking up for me like you have done above with Tanlic...so if you aren't prepared to post in a positive light about me..then certainly do not post in the negative..or i will get the impression you are another one that takes against a username on a messageboard for no particular reason bar sadness.

for your info...i enjoy reading Tanlic's posts in the main..particularly those referring to the past..but i also know his long posts annoy Slim...that is what amused me..not so much the one liner.

so just leave it out eh?..it would be nice to go a week on here without being criticised in some way by folk who never post positively in my direction...and those that wait for someone else to have a dig then waste their sad life posting a smiley in a sneering extremely sad way as above

Steady on there I am just having a bit of crack here.......I am like Marble I enjoy reading my posts too and I think Tanlic is misunderstood and so do I

Not for one second am I serious when I say you guys are Brain dead Zombies I am not the type to be throwing compliments about like that and neither is Tanlic

The guy you don't want to mess with is Fist he's a fookin nutter.

Gotta stop now don't want to upset my pal Slim............Like Tanlic and me he's a great poster unlike you bunch of scruff and me.:blink:
 
I'm saying nothing more, I've no wish to be a troublesome person. I'm sure Tanlic can speak for himself anyway.

I was amused; I posted a smiley.
Sure enough, I half-expected the response I got, but I'm hardly likely not to post because of your fixation. Get over it, ffs.

because of your fixation.

my fixation:D..you've got some neck i'll give you that..when i single someone out on a forum and give them constant purposeful naysaying ..then follow that person to another forum..and do it again..i'll know i have a fixation...i wonder who would do that?

i've had your number since TRF..your antics there mirrored what you do here..i personally now don't care about anything you say..but i will pull you when you continue with your agenda..i'll purposely highlight it.. like here..so that everyone can see the only time you have any response to me its always in the negative.

I think everybody on here should remember that Slim is a low attention span generation X sewer rat with ADHD and is on about 8 different spectrums.

Don't expect too much of him and you won't be disappointed.

I once told a teacher from Limerick who was plaguing me with after our first and only date that I was bipolar to try and get rid of her. Her response was "everything makes sense now". . .
 
Basically it takes people assuming you have a mental illness to make any modicum of sense out of your ramblings??

If you remember correctly you and OnTheBridle were texting me saying I had to ride her even when I admitted she was a 2/10. So this one is on you.
 
The last two posts are sacreligious and the authors should be stripped-naked, painted blue, and placed in stocks.
 
Whillans made a judgement call that his mount was capable of safely clearing the fence having been given a chance to catch his breath and his judgement proved to be correct.

Imho Whillians was a very lucky boy, because he firstly made a judgement call that his mount would not have cleared the last, a call I totally agreed with from my vantage point, so he pulled his mount up, gave it a breather and continued. Oh what a lucky boy, oh how lucky he was that his mount didn't stagger over the line and drop dead, we would certainly be looking at different headlines now and he would have been the bad boy. His mount was struggling for over a mile to keep up with the winner who was fairly tanking along, a better judge would have eased off well before the last and preserved enough to get round.

Ironically, much of the debate and ambulance chasing by the media focused on an obscure BHA rule relating to a horse not being allowed to jump an obstacle after being pulled up but, as that rule is in the section of the rule book relating to remounting, it seems obvious to me that it wasn’t applicable in this case as Gorgehous Lliege had not been dismounted during the race.

The reason the rule (46.4) is in the section for dismounting is so that they remove any disambiguation or decision on the jockeys part regarding any doubt over the horses safety. The race had beaten the horse the combination of ground, distance and pace had beaten the horse to a standstill. The rule states, "Where a Rider pulls up for any reason, he must wait in the area where he pulled up until all contenders in the race have passed by and, if the race is a steeple chase or hurdle race, he must refrain from jumping any further Obstacles".

Aside from the safety aspect, the owner of the winner was robbed of all the prize money and those punters that deciphered and staked the winner in Placepots and received £362 instead of £36,000, likewise the scoop 6 punters who saw only 11,000 knocked out of the place side instead of 12,030 and a payout of £2,182 instead of £40,000 must have been gutted by not only the Jockey breaking the rules but the stewards too.

Lets face it, if the rules had been taken literally then there would have been no debate, a small backhander to the Jockey for his concern for the horse and we wouldn't be having this discussion.
