never seen a fraction as much of it from anyone else and when it's brought up his apostles are there waiting to insult you, place is full of arselickers who can't see the wood for the trees.

Ya tipped all losers but didn't loose. His bookie must give him back his money when his selections don't win. Ha ha

In the context of making a return from gambling online accounts are essential.

I think you missed my point.

But yes if you are gambling for more than recreational reasons then an online account is essential.

'Don't gamble then' I hope anyone working with addicts has thought of such a novel approach

Tbf, for a lot of people they are and it is. Its a lot easier to put more of a balance on a screen on a bet than it is to put more physical cash on it. Just because you can control it doesnt mean everyone can and they dont necessarily have to have a gambling addiction either.

Jesus I thought i was the one going mad for a minute. There is a reason he posts their and not here as the numpties over there eat it up. He would last about 24 hours here with people seeing through it very quickly

Thanks but you're quoting me out of context there; my post was simply about attacking someone who posted up tips (regardless of who). It's happened many times before.

Helen Kelleher after 10 whiskeys would have seen better prices online than him he’s an absolute fraud or senile plant.

I was genuinely just about to post the exact same thing

sdoc13

have ye seen his latest post. Good god. never new you could get a 100% bonus with 365 and going opening an account with them, Only backs with PP and Lads. Seriously the best punter in the world would go broke doing that.

Holy Fu&k I have seen some BS but this takes the biscut.

It’s going on 3 yrs. He was gone from the place a while but came back in 2014 and was allowed run amok by a person who recently lost their rights. How on gods name they cannot see through the nonsense is beyond me, funny he has a share in a yoke in a yard and tips up nearly every losing runner the yard has I’d swear he’s on the payroll of ladbrokes. He then passes of market movers on oddchexker around midnight every evening as tips , many of which have already been backed into favorite.

I actually did think at one stage he might be a plant from one of the bookies, for some reason the horses he puts up just seem like the kind of bets a bookie would live off. I still think there is something funny going on but not quite sure what. I would kind of worry about all the people that seem to be following his tips though, more troubling is that they think they are winning??

Unless the offspring take a keen (and new found) interest, I doubt these colors will continue for many more seasons which is a real pity.

The string he built up were his passion really and cannot see family carrying on with the same involvement. It wouldn't be a business model set up like eg the Niarchos family or Moyglare.

Alan & Ann Potts Ltd was actually registered in early October so things are in place for the family to continue if they so wish. Depends on the will he's left too I suppose.

RIP

RIP, I saw him in the early part of this year and thought he looked very shook. Hopefully racing gave him some enjoyment in his final years.

I'm not sure they have immediate family to keep the horses going.. Nearly sure I read that somewhere before
