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.

    Which would suggest to me they weren’t based on anything substantive at all and probably should be taken with a pinch of salt.

    • Were they filmed at the same time as the media day last week?

        To be fair the previews since haven’t swayed either way either. It’s being touted as a 50/50 decision… so maybe the exchange move was pulling it more in line with that rather than SG being more weighted to the Ballymore

          Yep 50/50 as it has been for a while now and will be for a little while yet. We can all interpret things to suit our wants, but we just have to wait a few more days before we know.

          • Willie on Bring On The Night:

            “He was very good at Naas. We went there with a view to seeing whether he was good enough to go to Cheltenham. He’s in the Sky Bet Supreme but the way he jumped last time that might be a bit quick for him. We might need to supplement him for the Ballymore as he’s not in it at the moment, the slower gallop would help and he’s definitely good enough to go there.

            What he showed from halfway up the straight impressed me. He jumped the last well and you could see he had the race won and was going to win by a length or two but when he realised there were no more hurdles to jump he took off and found another gear. That showed me he could be good enough to win a race at Cheltenham.”

                    …in his diary, Saxon Warrior has the fees. From what I see, Thursday is the supplementary day for Ballymore at a cost of ?5,500.

                    • Not sure why I'm getting drawn into his comments but... Talks of supplementing Bring on the Night here and Minella Cocooner running here makes me wonder if we might get both Sir G and DD in the Supreme yet!

                        I was thinking that as well, could happen.

                          Or that they're better than whichever turns up.. or that one has had an as yet unconfirmed setback... So many variables, I'm kinda glad that I'm currently in the middle of a 12 day working stretch so I can't tie myself up in knots with it all!

                            Yea, I really should take a break from it until at least Wednesday. The next day anything meaningful might happen, besides any bad news. Can't help myself though!
