    Bastards, what happened to racingpost.co.uk gone overnight, they will never be able to make people pay, with attheraces and Irish-racing and the like giving the same info for free it would make no sense to charge.

    They've had that on test at www.racingpost.com for some time and switched over the co.uk site today.

    To be honest, I'd pay a small amount of money each month for it. The amount of information they compile and provide for free is incredible. I remember paying for that site years ago. With paper sales probably down, they have to do something to keep up their level of service.

    By the way, does anyone know where the 'early closing races' are gone?

    The results presentation is a disaster, there is no direct link to yesterdays cards.

    It doesn't seem to be as user friendly.I preferred the old layout.

    Lots of slow loading java applets :( You wouldn't want to be in a hurry.

    I don't like it at all, too complicated and slow.

    Theres no way I'm gonna pay for it, I assume they will give it for free to all those who buy the paper...:rolleyes:

    Sportinglife.com for me!

    Wish they could have left the site alone and just make people pay for the form info. Now its a bit of a mess. Drop into the bookies and read it for free i say.
