That's ruined my afternoons while working from home. I wonder if RUK will do anything about my subscription?
Is it PotG?

Bookies will lose a fortune.
Amidst the cry to help other businesses failing due to the virus, I take it the clamour will be just as intense to help out our honourable turf accountants.

Yep, I'm unemployed until it starts again (see other thread). Will cancel my RUK subscription I think, especially as I'm paying full price and also another one for my father. I'd certainly advise everyone to withdraw funds from all the books, some may not be back again.

I knew there would be a positive somewhere.

I doubt it. The machines will still be working, as well as the cartoon racing.

Thousands of people who work in the industry potentially losing their jobs is a positive is it?

A meeting is being held at 1pm on Wednesday by Horse Racing Ireland to discuss whether that will continue.
Not to mention a potential big hit to the cashflow of our club owner who is already taking a big hit to the cashflow by keeping a PL football club going on much reduced income.

Understandable, this virus has got to be grabbed by the reins.

The Albion were mentioned in glowing terms on 5Live yesterday evening.
To their knowledge, we’re the only club in Britain still paying match-day staff in full.
Respect to TB again. Thinking of those who rely in that money, ultimately from him.

Think you're flogging a dead horse there...............
Does that mean that anyone who's stroked a pony needs to self isolate as they were feeling a little horse?

I have no time for the gambling industry.
With the wealth in the industry, I am sure they will keep who they can.

Would you like to bet on that?

This will be interesting.
I would’ve thought it would take the actual apocalypse for them to cancel it. Personally think they’ll come up with every excuse under the sun to keep it going.
