Nerula 1,402 Report post Posted April 8, 2020 Well thats an interesting proposition and I would go for it under the following situation. * Get the Government out of racing forever. * Form a Company NZ RACING Inc * Return the TAB to its rightful Owners or sell for $1 to the NZR Inc * Use say Avondale as a security fo a loan. * Reward them with new facilities as part of the loan. * NZR Inc operates under strict corporate law. It is the government and club system thats lead to this situation. Get the government gone and the clubs answerable to NZR Inc or disband.

Nerula 1,402 Report post Posted April 8, 2020 Discussion rather than argument is more fruitful. But I was coming from the position of where this thing enmired in RITA TAB and Government was stuck. My 'blue collar bridles' about government control and club privilege. Set it free. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are quite a few of them. I think they use racing as a diversion from a shit job. Goddard was set up to fail. The establishment was rife with paedophilia and nasty sexual proclivities. Jimmy Savile, Rolf Harris in entertainment. Politicians a prime minister and we now discover, royalty. The right wing press went on to attack Goddard and her position was made untenable Tauhei Notts 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that means politicians have no responsibility and won't have to bullshit for every vote , when/if it fails it's gone forever , the end . * Use say Avondale as a security for a loan.' NO , Sell Avondale and use the money for what remains of racing , * NZR Inc operates under strict corporate law.' Yes then it's succeeds or fails , again failure will see it gone forever , Surviving will be everyone's challenge today , spare cash for punting , ownership will be hard to find , there won't be any easy fix for racing . Today 800,000 on work subsidy/dole , 600,000 on pension , 600,000 under work age , population 4.4 million (onshore) ? . THAT'S 2 million People are being paid/supported by the government or around 45% of the population , how long can that last .

Nerula 1,402 Report post Posted April 9, 2020 TA people have learned some hard lessons. Debt is good on your balance sheet - not. JIT ordering is the way to go - not. The Government will get us through this - wont. A roof over your head is a right and so is a job - it isnt. The guts is Government is hopeless at running anything unless it is extraction of taxes. Racing way back when was a cash cow but no more. They fkd it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
