The Racing Rant Thread

The geniuses at RUK that decided to only upload on youtube the last 30 seconds of a race when in other parts of the world access to horse racing channels and replays is completely free(eg Aus).
 
Geoff Banks - a wanker but thankfully he has blocked me on twitter so i don't see his pish anymore.

Bruce Millington - this fanny shouldnt even be allowed to edit a Crystal Palace fanzine. I would happily smack his face in with a spade just for being Bruce.

The Racing Blogger - a fantasist, a liar, and a self obsessed bandwidth thief. Promoted by that dick Bruce as being great for racing. Please explain why promoting a degenerate gambler, who constantly loses on huge odds on shots, and ends up having to feed himself with Yellow Sticker bargain bin food is "great for the sport"

Trainers who wrap horses in cotton wool, and still charge you a fortune for "training" them. Feck me... twice up the gallops, pop a few fences, walk them for a few miles. Piece of ****.

Oh and the arse holes who complain about not being able to find racing on the TV as its changed channel.....feck knows how they manage to go for a shite on their own.

The Morning Show.

WTF was this morning's programme all about??

This is supposed to be an hour-long racing programme covering 8 televised races later in the day, including a two big handicaps and two classics trials..

5 minutes to introduce the fvcker and a minute or so off the end for the adverts ahead of the next show leaves 54 minutes.

Chapman talking shite for 5 minutes about the course and the betting. 49 minutes.

Nine minutes to mention four horses in the Victoria Cup. 40 minutes then 2 minutes for adverts. 38 minutes left and seven races to cover.

Ten minutes of meaningless shite with the meaningless twonk that is Ian Wright [and McCoy]. Then 2 minutes for ads. 28 minutes left and still seven races.

Then some second-rate actress and 10 minutes about the Derby that isn't being run for three weeks. And the trials are still this afternoon. Better mention those races in passing. Then the second-rate actress and the second-rate jockette fawn over each other's looks. What the fvck is this? The Morning Rainbow Show??

By this time I've lost the will to live. The only thing that's kept me there so far has been Martin Dwyer trying to entertain. He's got more humour in his pinky than Chapman has in his entire being.

Can anyone précis for me what little was left of the show?

After a horse has shat up on heavy / soft ground the trainer then saying they'll be better on better ground. How the **** would you know....
 
Oh and "the anything he does as a two year old is bonus" and "the he'll make a better chaser". Bloody psychics.....
 
Ladbrokes don't show races from Hexham. They show 4 virtual races one after the other but not Hexham. When one asks the assistant behind the counter 'not my shop I don't know' he says. Even if he had have known, they didn't show it.
 
Quality of racing on Sundays in the UK is abominable

Apart from the open meeting at Cheltenham and 1,000 Guineas day it is crap

As for the TV coverage

Why don't you just watch the races and not the rest of the shite

I do

Each-way terms are extremely tight, to the point of being bloody annoying. Not even paying out the first four in a non-handicap with 16 runners or more.
 
Most annoying thing about UK jump racing is these novices and other races they make tactical when the only tactic should be go a pace the rags can't ...........like they do in Ireland.

As a one time place backer they had me tearing my hair out when eg a 4/1 2nd fav gets run out of it by some monkey because they have gone so slow and the moderate horse has a bit more toe over a short distance.

Or in chases the fav makes a blunder that give a horse a chance that should never have been within 10 lengths of him by the 3rd fence.

In Ireland Ruby and Davy are gone 20 lengths clear and the others never get near them.....The Dickinson family cottoned on to this years ago as did the Pipes but nowadays it's like they all want to pretend they are Lester Piggot

Something tells me there is a little more to it than that in Ireland...
 
As for mine, the total and utter lack of appreciation the great Harchibald has received on this forum over a period spanning far too many years. Disgraceful.
