Hearing that Matt's voice (the outspoken prat who's on At The Races) waffling away and getting over-excited about a random low grade dog race along with that other commentator who loves to scream and shout about them is enough to drive anyone out of any betting shop. I would honestly request they turn the volume off if I was stuck in 1 of their shops, has anyone heard these guys?

They're also very good at spotting people who try to alleviate the problem of the premium charge.

Yeh that Matt Chapman thinks he's sooooo left-field. Another really annoying thing is the way the twats at Ladcrooks start talking about virtual racing as though it was real LOL. And the same virtual races with the same shite commentary over and over again. They just launched virtual speedway and car racing today at Corals btw.

if this is true ,,,,,,,,,,, how is it that laddies can expand , yet coral is so in debt ?

how has coral got in such a state ?

surely a shop has only got to take a minimum of say 1200 a week through the fobts ,,,,,,,,,,,,, thats enough to pay the 2 staff (even those doin long hours), 400 each ,,,, and the rest for the leccy n rates etc

and if a rural shop isn't hitting that quota , then sure , ok shut it down

but a billion in debt ? ? ? ,,,,,,,,,, how

Must already be at saturation point with bookies, can't believe Ladbrokes are opening that many new shops.

Because the billions used by the private equity owners to buy Coral were borrowed against the company.

bit like buying a house with a mortage, hoping the rent covers it and leaves some profit
