2ky is run by the TAB so why should they give anything but a onesided view
of the situation?
Racing NSW is another lot who should hang thier heads in shame at some of the misinfomation they have spouted over the last few months.
And as for Kerry Packers tax bills,he can pay it into my account any time he likes.

Gday honda ( I got me one of those )
couldnt agree more with what you have to say.. The tripe being pedalled about copyright of race fields is absolute garbage.. and they (TABS RACING NSW etc) should know it... The English Bookmakers went down that line of litigation and got absolutely buried, when Betfair first raised their heads. They were smashed in the courts... the same will happen here... All that will happen is that the people who are paid up members/shareholders of these organisations are going to foot the bill for a hefty legal fight.. which they will lose.. Remember Racing NSW were the rocket scientists who took the Sydney Race Clubs to court over TVN... they got buried there as well.. not too many there with high IQ's
I have NO SYMPATHY at all for the establishment at ALL.. They have treated US THE PUNTERS as a milking cow for far too long.. and they have treated us with contempt.. I still cant see Sydney and Victorian Racing at home because of these dills don't consider regional racing enthusiasts as important..... but what do they care? I might still be a milking cow, but at least I now have a choice ( have had it for a couple of years actually) who gets to squeeze my teats...
