    Every Saturday (give or take the odd mid-season break of a week) Bob Rolf has been settling the scores for TRF’s favourite competition – the 4PP – AND HE’S BEEN DOING IT FOR TWENTY YEARS THIS MONTH!
    Many happy returns to 4PP and VERY many thanks to Bob on behalf of all of us who, over the years, have looked forward to the racing results on a Saturday afternoon to see how our 4PP picks got on.

    Thank you Bob.

    Had no idea it had been going for so long, fair play to Bob for dedicating so much time to run it.

    Thank you

    It all started on the Channel 4 racing website in 1998 …..I’ve still got the channel 4 racing umbrella they gave me for running the competition but the polo shirts have long gone! :-)

    Congratulations Bob :yahoo:
    Love your competition and appreciate all the hard work that you put into it every week.
    Here’s to the next 20 years and hoping that I might get somewhere near the top players in that time.
    Thank you Bob :heart: Jac x

    Just like to echo my sentiments to Bob, for his dedication towards this contest. 🎁

    You've got to accentuate the positive.
    Eliminate the negative.
    Latch on to the affirmative.
    Don't mess with mister in between.

    Admin has promised that if you keep it going for another 20 years then in 2038 you can have another polo shirt at half price.
    Can’t be any fairer than that
    Well done again bob… :good:

    Hi Bob,

    It goes without saying how much we all appreciate all your hard work and diligence in running this fabulous competition over the last 20 years.
    However, I much insist that you continue to do it for AT LEAST the next 20 years or even longer if I STILL haven’t managed to win the Daylight Cup :scratch:
    Saturdays without the 4PP, which is becoming progressively harder to win due to the quality of the opposition, would be unthinkable.
    So, like the other posters above, please accept a huge ‘thankyou’ from me.

    Steve :bye: :bye: :bye:
