Crowdfunder - Fat Jockey Forum upgrade

Hello Fat Jockeys,

Upgrading the Fat Jockey forum!: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/fatjockeyforum

We're looking to upgrade the 'hosting CPU' so I've set up a crowdfunding project.

      Just another point on this.... the fact they were moving the market is embarassing really.

      Pretty arrogant of me all year to bash the show without watching it, but it's routed in genuinly believing the content on this forum is better that the RP are producing.

      The only defense that stood up is that they have to do the show once a week and therefore 'can't get prices that we can', but in reality, that's just not true is it, in this day and age.

            Yeah but go like for like 1 selection a week, set up a separate thread. I’d back you to beat them both but would be interesting

              Yep, to be fair I think it is more difficult when you select fewer runners. I give 20-30 ‘value selections’ to a small group of friends throughout the season and after 54 points profit in 2019 this year’s selections were down 2.5 points despite me personally doing very well again. Should say this year’s included advice to cash out on Samcro @16s and Ferny Hollow @25s for a small profit. Thankfully my one mate who follows me didn’t cash out the latter so was still happy

                Think folk would be in for a surprise if they had to do similar to these pair. Not saying either one is fantastic but a couple of pics a week at a set time , no cash out,laying off or perming a whole race makes it a completely different game. End of the day its for the casual punter to view and i'm sure both do better on a personal level.

                  Agreed Outlaw, it’s a much harsher environment to put up one or two choices on a Tuesday afternoon, (and no others), at the prices available on that day, and no bailout option pre-Festival.
                  That’s the life of a media tipster.

                    Should it be the life of a media tipster?

                    Missing a trick in my opinion.




                    They get paid, to do the same thing I do.... and they do worse at it due to limitations they don't need to have?



                    They almost certainly have the tools and knowledge and TIME to do better than any of us, yet they don't. I challenge those to do what we do, rather than t'other way around




                    I'll do it next year, just to prove a point. It's a different way than I approach the festival anyway but in a hypothetical situation I'll still prove they shouldn't be moving markets.
                    People watching and backing them blindly that are also on here need to give their heads a wobble.

                        The trouble with these ‘pros’ is that they have to say something even when there’s nothing to say.
                        You and I get the option of saying ‘no bet this week’, when you’re paid to advise you have to provide some advice, and when you have to be creative you’re more likely to increase risk/lost value/make a rick....
