NO HARM CLICK BUT IM THE PERFECT EXAMPLE ?? What is it that I say that offends you so much that you have come on public media and have a go??? David phoned me Tuesday evening to answer me personally a few of the points(ideas) I had put forward. He didnt come on here to get my back up. Let me start ; firstly Ill be up in four hours to go to work like I do 7 days a week! Im not making a living from greyhounds Im a HOBBY BREEDER! Secondly; You know why I dont have as many runners at my local track, but you want to put it out here? Nothing to do with prize money as Ive said on here. When the racing manager phones you every week for over a month looking runners but when you bet one of your dogs(lossing bet by the way) he never phones you again looking entrys?? I wont go into detail on here but yes I did take it to the office and put it on email my facts but I got no answers. I see a member on here selling dogs from Drumbo complaining they dont get theyre trap draws, is he offending anyone? Also see you selling a dog for someone click for 350, would you not buy it and run it at track mate? Not sure if youve had any runners this year?
Some of this is born out of frustration over the winter weeks when we were the only track in Ireland closed some weekends. I think theres a knock on affect from that as well, great to see this weeks cards hopefully it keeps up
I think legal advice needs to be sought. prize money for the two northern horse tracks is paid from the irish turf club and is exactly the same as for southern tracks this money is also part of the irish goverments allocation to the horse and greyhound industry.only difference that I can see is entry fees and declaration fee are paid directly to irish turf club form your account and not to the stadium.so if horse racing in the north gets why not the greyhounds.
Craigy hopefully thatll get a result. Thanks click for phoning me there appreciate you werent having a dig, thats the problem with text words can be taken out of context and read the wrong way!

No one from the south has responded . Very short memorys . Wasn't so long ago they were asking us to come down in coach loads and help them picket for HX . And a lot of Northern owners and trairers did answer their cry for help. Don't need us now so ur own ur own. 96 grand is a spit in the ocean to what theyou have thrown away in recent times. PS We need to stick together and not fall out with each other. So send a letter or email to igb/icc and complain to them. To say northern Irish dogs are excluded from Derby specials but still say we are not Irish enough to get monetary funding .. WHICH IS IT
MICHAEL AS I EXPLAINED I WAS ANSWERING THE QUESTION YOU ASKED ON WHY THE SOUTH WANTS TO WASH THEIR HANDS OF NORTHERN TRACKS AND I USED YOU AS AN EXAMPLE BECAUSE YOU ASKED THE QUESTION, THERE ARE PLENTY OF PEOPLE ASKING THEMSELVES THE SAME QUESTION THAT YOU ASKED AND THATS WHY I GAVE MY OPINION, FOR YOU AND EVERYBODY ELSE,IF PEOPLE HAVE ANOTHER OPINION THEN I HOPE THEY VOICE IT.
I WILL CLARIFY MY OPINION AGAIN, IGB FUNDS SOUTHERN TRACKS, SOUTHERN TRACKS PRIZEMONEY IS MAYBE DDOUBLE OURS IN THE NORTH, NORTHERN OWNERS AND TRAINERS HEAD SOUTH FOR THE BIGGER PRIZEMONEY [WHICH I DONT BLAME ANYONE FOR] SO SOUTHERN TRACKS GET RUNNERS FROM THE NORTH SO WHY WOULD THEY WANT TO BRING NORTHERN TRACKS UP ON A PAR WITH THE SOUTH WHEN THEY WOULD LOSS A LOT OF NORTHERN DOGS FROM THE SOUTHERN POOL AND EVERY TRACK IN IRELAND IS UNDER PRESSURE FOR RUNNERS
What about starting a fund to get legal advice lads? 10 per member to start off? See Drumbo is good enough Bobby for Boylesports to run their dogs round when theres good money sweepstakes on offer!

I think igb would be legally obliged to fund all tracks in Ireland if legal advice was sought. As Bobby pointed out earlier they are good at taking your money for Naming pups, change of ownership ect;ect; but when it comes to funding Derry and Drumbo you are on your own. A good lawyer in my opinion would sort it out in no time.
As whoever agrees with a post or disagrees think they remain anonymous,well think again as surprise surprise the ones that disagree with anything that is having a go at igb is believe it or not igb themselves.
