    I've logged in but can't find the replays. Any guidance you could offer would be appreciated.

    Click Racing/Full Results
    Then select the race you want and log in
    Must admit I was only looking for this week's races and it's not obvious how to get to older ones which used to be available

    Where the F*** is the non runner page?

    Also when you look at the racecard it doesn't tell you what class of race it is

    Embarrassing

    It's the older races that I'm looking for. I know The Jockey Club website holds a lot of the replays but I did prefer the Sporting Life website. Thank God someone has found the old website.

    The new RP site is a dogs dinner. Sporting life is free but the old site was average anyway, mostly because the best data and insight was on the RP, however they've clearly taken their content, loaded an internet based catapult and fired the info at the screen hoping it sticks. Its terrible.
    I'm clever enough to ask the questions i'm too stupid to answer

    Don't know if this helps and if they cover every race.

    Thanks, I didn't know it existed. I would say the Jockey Club site is better for their races, it seems to be quicker and you can go full screen, but for the other RUK tracks it's handy to know about this.

    Yeah I do find 365 annoying in that it's just a small window. Don't know if increasing zoom in browser would affect quality of picture. I only heard about this the other week but seems to update quickly after racing

    As was said earlier, the timing beggars belief.
    The older I get the better I was.

    By the way, the SL website is showing Ex Patriot as the winner of the Fairyhouse opener. Now that is unforgivable.

    It's just been fixed, 45 minutes after the race. Still unforgivable.

    Yes but now you have to log into the actual website, which was never a requirement before. Why they went live before it was all set beggars belief. They never answer emails any more either. Some of their breeding section is badly lacking full details for mares' progeny etc.

    It doesn't matter how quick they are with results if they're wrong. Simply not forgivable.

    I can tell by what has been posted the biggest majority never bothered their ass, just head down like a bull in a china shop

    No clue about how difficult these things can be, nor that they don't take 5 minutes and obviously don't give 2 hoots...just moaning for the sake of it

    Imo, it's a question of whether you prefer be helped across the road, or mugged down an alley.
    We're blessed with free sites such as the SL and ATR who appear content to survive on advertising/betting revenue, whereas such as the RP and RUK would not only empty your wallet, but probably rape you in the process.
    Clicked on an ordinary news report on RP this morning, only to be advised I couldn't view it unless I upgraded my membership.
    Screw you, Parasites!
