I’m with you @Yosser. I thinks I knows him from watching the game but who is he? My guess is…….. David Fairclough.

Definitely right age......

Think we've nailed it.


He's certainly a big Racing fan.

We have a few secret celebrities on here for sure.

Definitely agree with the last bit. Outside the horse racing world also but you can guarantee the main presenters etc and all the tipsters are on here. Some of the tipsters 100% because i have seen them tip horses almost word for word. Paul Kiely literally copied and pasted Frero Banbou for the Plate about 3 years ago. I remember reading it on here the week before. I sat there aghast listening to the cheek of it and then seeing the price tumble :LOL: Chapman isn't on here, you would spot him a mile off. Well not as a poster anyway.

Sometimes I think we shoot ourselves in the foot . Once most on here agree about one , the price just collapses to ridiculous levels. Unless you get on quickly then any value is gone in a flash. Catch 22.
 
Probably but it's better than going solo without other opinions whether folk agree or disagree. I don't think the likes of me have the ability to really shift a market (though i got straight on about Fou De Toi before he was in the betting last year and every bugger on Youtube wanted a slice) There is only 1 man on here with special market moving powers. A couple of weeks before the Fez for about 5 mins, Mr Beck shifts more money than Tom Segal does in a calendar year :LOL:

….thats actually close, we signed for LFC together but i’m Eggs and David Fairclough is an old teammate and friend of mine.

Our fathers traveled to away games together because his had a car and mine didn’t. I scored 25 goals in 19 games the final season we played together, Dave scored 9, but just a couple of years later he played in a European Cup final at Wembley and I didn’t :LOL:

I was a very good schoolboy and youth footballer who played at top stadiums with and against some great players but I was never a pro, stayed on at school whilst playing for LFC, did A-Levels etc and had a great career outside football (y)

Chepstow's first National Hunt meeting, three days, will have no chases due to the dry summer. Nineteen hurdles and two bumpers.
