Guess these bunnys got their eggs early. Certainly am not up on the goings on up north, but a big broom is needed to remove these type of administrators and get people from racing backgrounds appointed with the industry at heart, not their own wallets. Then maybe get some independent investigations going into the possible maladministration that may have been occurring.
Couldn't agree more Brad,we need people with passion and vision and hopefully they will also be able to cut some admin expenses because let's remember that up here we only race at Albion park,Redcliffe and the Gold Coast with a few Saturday non TAB meetings at Marburg alternating with Redcliffe.
Melbourne band Something For Kate wrote a song entitled 'Monsters', a portion of the lyrics to which immediately prompt in me thoughts of the no doubt soon to become defunct RQLD.
I couldn't get with the program
And I couldn't listen to them
It was like trying to think in reverse.
HAPPY EASTER ALL
May those that don't have the industrys best interests at heart feast on the the eggs laced with the wormer VVV highlighted in the General Chat forum.
I note with interest that Mr Bentley said the departure of the four concerned would not cause any turmoil because there is a succession plan in place. This should be the first document that is shredded. This story was printed prior to VVV's link but is still interesting reading. http://www.couriermail.com.au/news/q...-1226310559046
The link below has nothing to do with the story.:D

They jumped before they were showin the door and for QLD racing you could only hope that Bentley is walking towards that same door, if not maybe a good shove in that direction will help. It will be interesting if the audit been done uncover's anything on the dodgy side of thing's.
An ode to the departing.

At the conclusion of the board meeting, Bob stood up and belted out this little ditty

It was well received by all Queensland racing participants who have been without a voice for so long.
If you look really closely to the bottom left of screen you can just make out Kevin Seymour with a bottle of bubbly in hand and a grin as wide as Sydney Heads.Quote:

Don't you just love the democratic process? Every so often you get the opportunity to kick them to the kirb.
There's another one coming up but at National level and it will be around about this time of year in 2013.
She'll go too...broom, hat, cauldron...the whole box and dice. Currently has 72 seats, will be very lucky to hold onto even half of them.
Agree totally with your observation but I think it should be in the General/Off Topic forum.Quote:

the one where she disappears entirely up her own rear orifice for sake of her own vanity. When it does occur though, it will be judged as her most popular and most effective social reform and will be widely and wildly applauded in much the same vein as the crowd that turned up at Albion Park last night sic.
Agree Brad. Probably belongs on a blog like Piers Akerman's or Bolt's or somewhere similar where people write in caps and call political leaders unflattering names because they don't come from the party they barrack for. The RQLD part belongs here, the rest can go elsewhere.
Be careful not to trip over your Batik Sarong there Glen.
There is a place for it and it isn't a harness racing forum. That's all I'm saying.
Yeh, I know. Sorry. Sometimes I just can't help myself. Prompted by my recent power bill.
Too many late nights watching Sky on your large screen plasma while using the laptop.
I wish that I had a large Plasma to watch Sky on Glen. Mrs Triple simply will not entertain the idea at present...or rather she will but, for me it'll mean much larger versions of Project Runway, Australia's Next Top Model and Master Chef...and that I cannot abide. I live in Estrogen Castle as it is. I have to go out and do horse stuff and get covered in crap to get some perspective back.
