I guess that officially marks the end of my South African punting days.....
Sad but I guess it had to happen sometime.
See you next year March/April when we come for a little visit!

Chris I'm not sure what SP charges - I myself subscribe to Computaform on-line - very affordable (especially in US Dollars) - maybe check it out ?

Tough to pay from over here Frodo, for the most part, anything to do with sport, or betting or any such phrases, our cards will not allow us to make any purchases or deposits....
Almost like living in a military state

Don't you have some contacts over here (and I'm not volunteering
) that can download and e-mail you whichever publication you prefer?

I do but it goes from supremely easy to being complicated and relying on others.....
No big deal, I can still see form if I really, really wanted to. I guess it is all about comfort levels and what it is I'm willing to endure to make this passion work

have no problem with the charge but to be honest I just couldn't be bothered to have yet another online service to manage so wont be signing up..SP is nice format though so will miss it a bit.

.....@ ZAR10 per meeting for Sporting Pro it suddenly makes that not so accurate but ever so colourful Computaform a better prospect.....especially with multiple downloads when you are working off home computer then office computer then the tablet for reading in the sh1thouse....

Have to agree Muhti.........................I think the new Computaform could have been a much better formguide if they had consulted wider (many they consulted with don't even use it as formguide of choice :woohoo: ) but all in all,It has to be preferable to Sporting Pro!

why would someone pay when there are a few sites which give free form guides?

Quality I would imagine Blue?
Sportingpost is by far my favorite publication and I have been an avid follower for years but since I'm not easily able to pay, I guess I will have to find other means.
It is the way of the world, things constantly change and we have to find ways of adapting.

......exactamundo....and now that the Tabgold site is all of a sudden on the fritz and their scant but acceptable freebie is suddenly not available....and now SP wants dosh for what has been free for donkey's years....time to fork out of the noN existant X MAS bonus for a acceptable substitute....I d rather make a small investment on the Computaform than be subjected to the Free at tAB sh@@t..... :blink:.....P Publishing must know it is now truely Christmas.....bound to pick up on online subscriptions with this move... :S
