eastbank   10 #301 Posted May 3, 2012 No, it's not a sport. Can't post a link but the IGB and European rules now admit this. As for your trainer making a good living...no he won't be, no trainers are! The only thing your trainer has going for him is that his kennels are at the track so, unlike his counterparts he has no diesel costs getting to and from meetings. Have a word with Russ..he will tell you just how much the bookies are taking the p**s out of trainers and owners...and the REAL losers are the poor dogs....  we all know the bookies are coining it in...thats why they pump their money into the industry to keep it afloat.... if it relied on the punters paying through the door it would be dead...but on the other hand...come the weekend you try booking a table in the restaurant at owlerton... don't care what the europeans say like the sport of kings, horse racing we in the country class greyhound racing as a sport...not a pastime... as for the dogs...most are bred to race in this country or hare coursing in ireland... our molly in two months will be well out of it....and so will i.....
