the UK/USA site will not be run locally..

keniza999 should we allow the status quo to continue,, look what the current establishment done to Charl Pretorius and Freeracer,, also have a chat with ABC's Dave Scott and others,,, other countries support internet ventures that help racing,, so are they wrong and SA right,, or are the SA racing operators right and the rest of the world wrong,, walk in my shoes for one hour then judge

I'm amazed at the mentality of this decision , I guess cuts have to come somewhere with all the corruption and demand for BMW's. Why don't the FatCats at phumulela get off there asses open there eyes and get involved. Do they realise that its the punters who pays there wages. #Pissed2theMax

now im off to work to find money to support Formgrids International,, so chat later

mister a, you have a captive audience that you are punishing because of your gripe with the operators. Fact is formgrids is a private entity and Phumelela are not obliged to support it. if i developed some website tomorrow am i then entitled for support from Phumelela too? Racing post, Timeform, DRF,etc all charge for the use of their sites and they keep going just fine...

keniza999 did you know that Sheik Mohammed put GBP 20m into racing post and sold it to the English founder for one pound,, Timeform is funded by Betfair and you will find one of the big operators in USA fund DRF

I wonder how much Formgrids are saving by removing the SA cards that was already put up for today?

LOL, you're a smooth operator matey, and obviously care deeply for your support base..going to the bitter end for them. I love that you took every care to remove the South African flag too.

Will the current advertisers be happy to carry on their sponsorship's once traffic to the site plummets due to lack of South African content ?

It's a disgrace that they never got support i have used this web site often this is a huge and sad loss to racing

Mister A How much for Formgrids SA?

Will make necessary arrangements with advertisers,, in due course,, are you an advertiser Party Line ?

JTL its not about money,, do you know that not one staff member of Formgrids got an invite to the july from GC..
