I miss Rob

I have been searching for some back up info on something that I want to write about and have been reading through some older posts on here. I have been through some cracker posts, in particular those by my old mate Rob Faux. He is missed.

Well I doubt he misses you. Rob was a gentleman who would never dream of calling us mugs or approve of your constant online abuse towards other clanners. He gave us opinions, entertainment & shared his experience & wisdom with us. what do you contribute besides your vitriolic comments ???
RIP Rob

This is a deep thread. I don't think it should be used to bash anyone.

Unfortunately, I never really conversed with Rob, but when I read this post I immediately thought of my dad :(

I was fortunate enough to meet Rob on one occasion, at a tote in Kloof, Dbn. I happened to spend the afternoon with him and mutual friends, he was a great PA man and knew the form of horses. Unfortunately I only had that one afternoon, I would have loved to have picked his brain on racing. RIP Rob.

No disrespect to others but when I used to get messages asking “ who knows their stuff”

I would always say Rob! He didn’t tip often but his strike rate was huge
