Pre-post Markets on-line
See: Racingandsports
Pre-post market.
Finally after 25 years of home based computers, there is now a pre-post market available .
No thanks to multi-million $ TABs, except for WA limited offering
or multi-million dollar news paper groups who already print a pre-post market but not one on-line .
Seems to prove the TABs arrogance or ignorance.
It's a case of either ...
Can or cant
OR
Will or wont.
A high percentage of punters like the idea of having access to one , regardless of the many reasons or accuracies, they just like having one .
Look how many times we have seen requests from punters enquiring for a market on-line, only to be advised there isnt one (except sometimes on certain races when they feel like it , WA TAB ,which is deleted as soon as the races start)
Hard to beleive that this is the thinking of a multi-billion dollar industry.
I beleive the head chaps at the various TABs get paid over $1Mil dollars a year.
If that is what one gets for a Mil , I want my money back.
I heard one reason that surgests that race clubs wanted a royalty if using their name .
If that were the case, they should ask for a royalty from every tipping or rating service & anyone who mentions that clubs name or race.
No one could afford to even mention a race for fear of having to pay a royalty. That reason does not make sence to me.
Why would every single race club in Australia, including the struggling ones , prefer to have nothing, rather than the possability of their races receiving , extra exposure to their event, raising awareness to the public in general, through a pre-post market, that costs them nothing.
Does anyone know why pre-posts are not readily available?
Maybe there is a good reason out there as to why it has taken 25 years.
Cheers.
