    Amongst all the gambling community here there must be someone who owns a horse, dog, or football club or something? Or did in the past?

    Owned 1 dog with a 5 work colleagues, owned another with 2 mates.
    First one was quite good, ran in S Park and we won money on him over the years.
    Sold him and bought another, a donkey :(.
    Good crack, small outlay - training fees etc but expensive going every week to SP.
    Talked about buying a horse but never got round to it.
    Seems you can lease a horse for Zilch these days, all you have to do is pay the trainer fees, recession times.
    Football club now that's a challenge (Unless it's LOI?)
