Gary Neville on the attractiveness of Liverpool and Manchester United to buyers:
"Manchester United and Liverpool are the biggest clubs in the country by a mile. But United will be more sought after and fetch a higher price than Liverpool just because of its might."

Every jockey in the weighroom say
@yorkracecourse
is soft ground but yet they won’t change from good to soft !!!
@BHAHorseracing
leading false information to the public is not good for British Racing…. 🤷🏻♂️🤬🏇🇬🇧
This is utterly unbelievable and to say they are happy with the numbers just shows you !!!!!! There is only one thing to do now and that every jockey in the country sits down and don’t go out to play……🤷🏻♂️👊🏼😡🏇🇬🇧

The campaign group Animal Rising plans to 'disrupt' the Grand National on Saturday, calling on animal lovers to 'turn up' and 'make their voices heard'.
But would this protest cause more harm than good?
The Callan Family are so overwhelmed by all the message of support from all corners of the world. This is a deeply distressing & stressful time but Trish & the boys are with me every step of the way & will get through this & come out stronger!
With love

Apparently racecourses get £30-40k per race in media rights deals! If true ? then £2,980.20 to the winner of the first race at Newcastle is pitiful prizemoney

It cost me a G2 winner at Glorious Goodwood on Saturday not being able to get the last bit of weight off before the race when I arrived at the track. It’s a joke ! 🤷🏻♂️🏇🇬🇧
"Over a third of Jockeys now feel physically and mentally worse. Two-thirds do not support the removal of their job. Three-quarters think the lack of racecourse saunas is a negative. Everyone is 𝗻𝗼𝘁 in agreement" 🗣

My latest whip ban I argued one was for safety from stopping another jockey clipping heels of another horse but I was told it wasn’t enough to satisfy the strict high bar set for the new whip rules !! Meaning safety of horses and riders is not paramount anymore !! 🤷🏻♂️🤨🏇🇬🇧

Newcastle's clerk of the course Eloise Quayle explains what work they have been undertaking this week to prepare for today's meeting, which was abandoned after concerns over parts of the track being frozen...
Jockeys were ran around in circles with saunas to 6lbs allowance blaming Covid ! then take away saunas and reduce the 6lbs allowance to 4lbs ! Promised it back !! Still to happen…. The PJA did not agree to this, contrary to what the spokespersons from the BHA say… 🤷🏻♂️🤔🫵🏼🏇🇬🇧
This needs to change now -
@BHAHorseracing
must bring saunas back for riders.
A third of
@PJAOfficial
members feel physically and mentally worse than they did before saunas were closed.
Two thirds do not support the removal of saunas. 🙏🙏

So sad to report former 4-time German champion jockey & Prague-born Filip Minarik has passed. Life was so hard for him after a horrific fall at Mannheim in 2020. Loved the guy - & he loved the sport. Leaves behind a young daughter - she will one day know her dad was a star.
#RIP
There is and has been too many takeout merchants in racing since it began !!! Show media rights deals in the public domain like the premier league football does and put some of the cake back and make British racing the best in the World like it used to be… 🤷🏻♂️👊🏼🏇💰🇬🇧
Ok, so I'm confused. Making entries for next week it is clear that prize money for mid week jumps fixtures is being cut to the bone. This is being blamed on "Premierisation" and today we have the first "Premier Fixture" with 47 runners across 7 races. At the same time
Arena Racing Company has been rewarded with their decision to offer bumper prize money on Good Friday with 369 horses declared for Bath’s bank holiday card where none of the seven races are above the grade of Class 5
Don’t you love all these racecourses
@TheRCA
around Britain that want more and more fixtures and then they screw the meetings up with slippery, over watered tracks and tracks that can’t drain water. Leaving 100’s of Owners, Trainers, Staff and jockeys out of pocket. Unbelievable
RCA. Mr Armstrong avoiding answering questions and passing the bat back to trainers !! Too much racing even bookmakers are saying it !! Utter rubbish talk…. 👎🏽💩
