That Steve fella lives 10 minutes down the road from me, so it must be something in the water

He must be on a decent clip from the Post, if he's that much of a degen, and has a mrs/kid etc.

Cheers for the heads up on the book, Brent. Just ordered a copy from Amazon...

What you think he would be on a year?  £50k a year from the Holy Ghost?  I seriously have no idea.  He is a pretty senior writer for the sports section.  He obviously works from home by the looks of things.  Would be a tough commute daily to East London from Weymouth.

I haven't got a scooby, and would guess someone like Brent/Chompy are the ones likely to have an idea, if anyone.

Can't see him doing that everyday, even though it is a direct train, and under 3hours to Waterloo.

Probably just pops down when Brucie wants to hear about the pain, face to face.

Bruce looks a lot younger in his RP photos than he does IRL.  Fuck me he looked old in that video.

Any books you want mate. Just ask. Just gathering dust here.

Pretty sure the book answers your questions.

Thin, I know, but having helped buy a second place with ill gotten gains, made watching him tell tales of spunking £75k of his house deposit money, a lot easier, when the wife is watching with you!

You can almost hear the cogs in her brain itching to start with the questions.

Instantly thought of you when he mentioned the golf double, and was wondering if it was the same one

Haha, he looked like he'd been on the piss all night.

Lol. I hope he's not been following me on the golf last few weeks, or he would be potless!

He's gone skint buying outfits to sweat all his punts in.

Proper pros in my experience tell everyone when they are losing and not when they are winning.

but they dont understand sarcasm

No idea on salary ££££ but he wouldn't commute daily. Most RP writers these days work from home, certainly all the Spotlighters.

Andy was a lovely bloke and spoke a lot of sense for a small staking casual punter

Steve palmer is exactly as he writes came across well

The coral horse trader who backs horses named after his kid was the highlight for me

Enjoyed  the bit when Andy thought he had spotted an edge with the two Middleham runners, blissfully unaware of how many different syndicates run in their colours, and it paid off.

He was the only one who was having fun ,free day out at the races with the Mrs , good for him

Yep his system!

Looked like he was having more fun than anyone on the show

Part III of BBC's latest sitcom offering runs tonight at 9pm.

Good piece, and good on Craig Reid for being the only loltrader in the world to actually tell the truth.

"I should point out that not all my bookmakers have turned away my bets. Ladbrokes and bet365 have invariably been willing to lay me a fair-size wager, but they are in the minority."

LOL
