its a certainty that the ladbrokes & corals brands will only take the SIS coverage, the other high street bookmakers may split between the two with most taking TRP coverage. i'm pretty sure william hill will go TRP as they sold sunderland & newcastle to TRP. i'm not sure which way fred will go, i don't think any bookmaker will want to take both services. so in a nutshell if belle vue is your track you won't be watching it an a ladbrokes or corals shop in the new year.

If a large conglomerate or whatever, decide to cut off their nose to spite their face then so be it! At the end of the day, punters have their choice and should Laddys n Co start to feel the pinch at the till because some walk away- what better way to bring em to their senses, perhaps for the betterment of all!7

trp is already in all the the betting shops. Ladbrokes and coral signed up in july , the greyhound racing will be shown between horse racing as sis is going to do with their coverage, so most days we will have 4 morning meetings ,4 afternoon meetings and 4 evening meetings.

having had months of not showing TRP horse racing coverage ladbrokes/coral did indeed relent and subscribe earlier this year. ladbrokes/corals have instigated the split in the greyhound ranks are are bankrolling 4 tracks as well as their own as a challenge to the shortly to be defunkt BAGS service. under no circumstances will ladbrokes/coral shops take TRP greyhound coverage in the new year otherwise their investment in the 4 tracks they have bankrolled would be pointless. ladbrokes/corals have not been competitive as a bookmaker for years and their contempt for their customers has no bounds so they won't bat an eyelid at offering a greyhound product from 8 tracks over which they have total control.

It is amazing we are 7 days away and nobody bloody knows. I will be astounded if CORAL/LADBROKES/PP/ take the other service and not even sure they will bet on it. My worry as an owner at the SIS tracks are will they have footage available via streaming, I seriously worry they might not, but if they do, not sure other bookmakers will get the pictures.
My other question is who is going to take the TRP greyhounds then to pay for it, probably why none of the tracks has announced any prize money increases. As a BV owner I really fear for future night meetings and can see the fridays going and perhaps 10 race cards on Saturday. When is BV going to sort the prizemoney ? For years we have been told BV was subsidising Hall Green, Wimbledon, Oxford as the excuse it was so low despite the tracks income, well no more MR FELTHAM & HARDY yet Perry Barr is higher than BV, and they just know owners will accept it, cos its what they do. THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING.
