IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
16 years 10 months ago
Good morning to the CLAN and I would like to make the following announcement.
My two partners in A.B.C. have decided to move on to new business ventures and I am left at the helm with a dream to take A.B.C. to greater heights.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Chris and Jess for all their hard work in building the site to what we have achieved to date and I wish them success in their new challenges.
Its no secret that I have gone out on a financial limb to keep A.B.C. running and can only hope for your continued support.
I have a big task in front and might drop a few catches on the way, but life is a challenge and in this case a "gamble" and I am sure the thought of me standing on the corner of Church and Paul Kruger with a cardboard placard and tin "lost website, bookies to pay, please help"! is an imagine that will keep my enthusiasm for the site alive.
I don't want to sound like a politician, but I would like to "get back to basics" with the site using our mission statement "to promote and protect SA horseracing", in addition to continue to give the "punter/owner/trainer/jockey" a voice to be heard via the racing authorities and to use this voice in an attempt to improve the sport that we are all passionate about.
The Forum will always be a place to give me sleepless nights and all I can request is that we use self discipline whilst I am putting structures in place and show each other respect irrespective of opposing views.
I would like to thank our current sponsors, Interbet, Blackpearlbetting, Sportsbet and Keith Ho for their support and long may it continue to allow me to supply this service to the racing community.
I have a few ideas for the site, which I will be sharing with you over the coming weeks, so with a bit luck "everything points to happiness".
I am considering taking on a new partner/partners plus have given some thoughts with regards to share scheme in A.B.C. and I welcome any interested parties to send me an email at thescotts1@telkomsa.net , I am looking for positive, dynamic people, however WEALTH would be a distinctive advantage.
Good punting.

Morning CAT, as I have mentioned in my morning post, nothing drastic has to change ABC has always had a winning formula, there is a need for on-line race horse chat lines and no need for any major change in direction, just a bit respect and restraint required between the posters and to get more people involved in racing.

I just hope that it was an amicable split. I am a little concerned that Cukoo has not posted. Last Post was on 27 July 2008 probably before the split announcement. Cukoo and Chris have always treated me as an equal on this site and I hope that they will continue to have input.
They have both been valuable contributors and I thank them for getting us (as ABC) this far. I also look forward to Scotia driving membership growth and tackling the issues with the operators.

Well done to Chris for managing and maintaining the ABC website . I'm quiet sure it was not a easy task and best wishes to you for whatever new challenge you are going to take up.
Jess see you soon mate hopefully you will provide some winners this time, and not keep them to yourself. lol
May the good Lord provide for you and your family always.
Dave long road ahead but I'm sure you are quiet capable of keeping things together. Good luck mate.
