    Ted’s decided to make it a 6 man team competition in order to give everyone a chance of fielding a team. If you’ve got 12 you can enter a B team, too. If not, you can sub your team throughout the week.

    So come on, who’s up for a competition to crown which forum on the net has the best tipsters… :D

    I just wonder if Dungheap
    might leave the heap for this

    I do not know why
    Dungheap’s name sprung
    into my mind.

    Gambling is very much a solitary
    occupation and forming teams
    has always been difficult.
    Think back to the little attended
    NAPP meetings in a small room
    near Victoria station.

    Punter power is now expressed on forums
    and other punters read the words.

    Ted’s decided to put his foot down and unless you’ve got a team of 6 (or 2) together by Monday evening, 7pm, you’re not playing :D

    Ted’s put his foot down and said if you’ve not got a team together by 7pm this evening you’re not entered. So, come on, throw your hat in and get involved. You wouldn’t want to be the only forum not involved now, would you?

    Looks like you won’t be entering a team – fair enough, I tried. I guess you know you’re not up to it…

    Hi Simon…
    Perhaps you’d let us know which other forums are involved….

    Final Furlong have a team, Talking Horses, Atacanta and OHRacing. You’re the only board left not yet with a team entered, so don’t chicken out :wink:

    If you can get a team together (a team of 6, plus a couple of subs in case of no-shows is advised) then please confirm you can and who will be playing on this thread…

    Here are the rules:

    Each player can make a maximum of 4 selections, and only one of those selections can be each way.
    The same numbered players from all teams, including B teams if they take part, all take each other on, with the player who makes the most money in his or her group scoring the same number of points as the number of teams who take part, ie if there’s 6 teams the winner would score 6 points for his team, 2nd would score 5, 3rd would score 4, etc etc down to 1 point.
    On top of that the highest scoring player of the day scores 5 bonus points for their team, and the second highest scoring player of the day scores 3 points for their team.

    £1000 for each player to bet with, non runners are losers so post reserves, you must gamble all of your money, and any miscalculations will be added or taken from the bet on your first win only selection, or reserve for that selection should it not run. The cut off point for entries is the time of the first race on each day.

    No minus figure for losers, so if you have one winning £50 bet on a 3/1 winner, your score will be £200.

    Yeah – come on you lightweights! Can’t believe you’re all bottling it! Surely you’ve got some reasonable tipsters on here? :lol: Whats the competition? Atacanta (lots of girls) OH Racing (average age 16) Talking Horses (think they’re the superior forum and pro tipsters – yeah right!) and Final Furlong (load of whinging barstewards!) – so how can you lose!!!! Get organised pronto and stick a team in!

    Where is Nathan Hughes when you need him? Surprised he hasn’t appeared along with his sparring partner Ken(West Derby). Perhaps they’ve eloped together.

    Perhaps they’ve seen our all star line up.
    It reads like a who’s who of the 4PP competition. :D

    I couldn’t find enough non runners so I’m not playing. :mrgreen:

    As for Ken, well Natalie has put her foot down and he’s stuck to the kitchen, ironing board etc etc.

    Simon – I’d like to get involved but we’ve got loads of competitions on here at present and managing it all is a bit of a task. We’ll try to play next time around, perhaps Cheltenham next year or maybe a Breeders Cup version.

    I am very disapointed in TRF with their efforts to promote the forum especially from those in charge, there is never too much work all you have to do is post a few selections – you’re not being asked to write a book.

    Very disapointed here :roll:

    That’s a shame. Ah well, you’re obviously scared of how good we are. :D
