I reckon is good plot .... Hibs, what say you ? I don't mind drawing up the rules ....

I say bring it on sounds awesome!! Can we drink while punting ? Is there a dress code? ( sandals not allowed) oops sorry Madji!. I'd like to know who th e bookie is that wants to set this up.

Doesn't have a banner here so would be a bit offside to promote them and also still uncertain regarding the legality etc, ...Aiming for the mid/end of March

Unless it's Bettingworld can't see it happening. Would be cool if it did happen though.(tu)

Thanks once again to Titch (Eye in the Sky) for always having finger on the pulse with what is happening and keeping those less exposed clanners with frontline news. As a token of my appreciation you may back Al Nadira at 20/1 for a place tomorrow evening.

Thaks Bash will do and as a token of my appreciation I wont use it in the comp..

Just to clarify the background with Voltbet, they requested permission from the gambling board ( may have been a wrong call?) but they wanted to do everything correctly.

The gambling board regard enticing people to gamble is morally wrong, considering they get there revenue via that source it could be regarded as rather hypocritical but what the hell, Phumelela have a joint venture with Betfair and threatening SA punters using it would be breaking exchange laws (foreign exchange) laws that is lol

It makes having a forum lots of fun and we are always guaranteed to be busy in this industry

We don't have to look for content as Forest Gump would say " life is like a box of chocolates"
We never know what is going to pop up each day?
