Bach, Pompete as far as I know isn’t banned, he’s just sulking. He posted on 3/3/12 then went on strike but came back 25/8/12 to laugh at my Somerset losing to his Hampshire in the cricket and then went back on strike.
Nathan, correct as always…..and I’ll be back when we do the same next year
Anyhow, remember this, my homage to the King of Punters…..Steve Palmer
I suspect we wont have more arrogance from Pompette for a good while

Fair play Ricky, enjoy your moment in the sun – as long as Cavs agrees of course
For me, after this I’m done with the whole thing.
I’m just a punter – a very good profitable punter as some on here know – so the jocks can hit their horses as many times as they like.
I couldn’t care less anymore.

3.45 Stormy WeatherSimon, please do not introduce REAL facts into this debate on the whip.
That bloke, can’t remember his name, the one that always agrees with Cavs, will not be happy….
I’ve got no problem with a Dress Code at any event and agree it is a matter of respect.
Many people will go to places like Ascot for a special day out and getting dressed up and mixing with people that have made a similar effort is all part of the day.
One tip I would give to any man is to either buy a tailored suit and shirt or at the very least get an off the peg suit adjusted to fit….there there nothing worse than an ill fitting suit.
Ascot to refund after dress code debacle
ASCOT has announced that it will refund all premier enclosure customers following its public relations blunder on Saturday when racegoers who did not conform to the track’s strict new dress code had to wear an orange sticker.
Ascot chief executive Charles Barnett said on Sunday morning: "It is clear that we let down many of our premier enclosure customers yesterday with a well intentioned but misguided policy.
"No customers should be expected to pay for such an experience and we have taken the view that all premier enclosure visitors yesterday will receive a full refund.
"We have worked very hard for many years to establish ourselves as a benchmark for customer service and are making this statement today to reinforce that wewill not allow our reputation as a welcoming sports venue to be tarnished by an isolated lack of judgement on our part.
"We will work through the logistics of the refunds tomorrow. Most people will have booked in advance or paid by card on the day but we will look after cash customers too and anyone who still has their admission badge should hold onto it."
The new rules, which require male premier ticket holders to wear a jacket and tie, were not being enforced, meaning racegoers who failed to comply were not being turned away.
However, the stickers being handed out on the way to the enclosure areas effectively served to identify dress that would be unacceptable to the course at future meetings.
Speaking on Radio 5 live on Sunday morning, new BHA chief executive Paul Bittar said: "I was at Ascot yesterday and the hospitality and customer offerings are world class. The course have apologised andthey recognise they made a mistake. I hope it is an incident that we can move on from."

Bill, of course I was messing about, and for the record am delighted that both yourself & Queenie were joint winners.
Good luck with the system, but if I may I would say don’t tinker with it and keep it going for at less 3 months. Many a good system has been put in the bin due to short term losses….
With the greatest respect, I like Bill and do agree he has kept Ward 7 running Matron is fcuking useless…
But I can’t and don’t know how anyone else can vote for a bloke that has yet to put up a single winner in 2011, the term mug punter was written for Bill, actually that’s not true but ‘don’t know what he is doing’ punter is more like it, however, there is more to Bill than that, but he’s a loser anyway…..you might as well vote for grandad…
Why has Pete’s post been deleted, and my copy of it that was deleted from this post?
Shocking bias! You should be ashamed of yourself, Corm. This isn’t the first time this has happened.
Mr P to be fair a) it was quite right my post was deleted and b) perhaps I have got away with more than some others in the past and perhaps that is not fair.
In response I’m going to post one more thread, which I hope you will take part in, and then I won’t post anymore…how’s that for a deal….
