Yes the TAB needed to lose some of these 230 people but how many have lost their jobs to help pay for a lemon of a betting platform's overrun in costs along with a $17 million a year to service and maintain it. These  job cuts are going to save the industry $10 million the Industry is told but the Industry was never told of the $17 million a year in additional costs for the betting platform until after it was up and running.
Now punters are paying for it also (not money wise but info wise) by not having raceform publications,previews on local racing (no Metro previews today),no onourse presenters, no newspaper coverage, no radio coverage, no terminals on track etc. 
First to have have their jobs go should have been the clowns involved in the betting platform as the Industry was lied to as to regards the costings. The Board was lied to as well and they were obviously too thick too know otherwise. 
The Industry needs to be making a stand and demanding these people go down the road and if they don't do that well they get what they deserve an Industry's wagering service they help to pay for going down the drain.
Make some noise rather than sitting back thinking it's all going to be okay, bottom line is it won't be.
 
     

TV free to air, radio, newspaper fields, customer service will never happen again. 
Our leaders failed Marketing 101.
They do not understand marketing or customers wants/needs
Very sad
 

Attacked low wages, nothing upstairs who caused our problems. 
Just a joke. 
Bring on Statutory Management

And they way that they are saying that Winston bailed out the Racing Industry says it all!

I see sky have sacked everyone and then they all have to reapply for less jobs,when are rita gunna do same?

Teaz is another who put himself out for the good of the game travelled a lot so what do they do ,sack him,unreal.

Yeh but when our guys pick one you can leave it out of your combinations so that is value too!

The question with track closures is whether the long term cost savings are greater than the long term loss of profits from reducing exposure in regional communities.

They are sacking/letting go wonderful people to save $10 million per year and those left behind won’t be able to cope! Trust me. 
 
Yet they are paying $330,000 per week (17 fucking million per year) to Paddy Power!
Big business and fuckwhits, over good people once again. 
 
I really give up.

This government has tried to do more in the last two years than the previous one did in nine. 
Prove me wrong with facts, not stupid statements.

Wake up Dean and the Board. 
Listen to what the grassroots are saying, including your close friends Andrew and Tony.......get rid of those who created the problem, not the young passionate, enthusiastic young people who will do the job for a quarter of the salary.
