Tully finds love

With recent speculation concerning Weston's love life, it can now be revealed here that his cohort J.Tully has actually succeeded in finding someone to bend the knee. It comes as no real surprise as the boy has changed certain habits in the days prior to this astonishing revelation. He was spotted walking up the town by a reliable source with his hair immaculately combed in the retro centre parting style. Along with this amazingly coiffured noggin he was also heard to be singing Jim Reeves' Moonlight and Roses .whilst on his way to work. The H&ADT administration can only offer this new paramour sincere condolences at being "buttered up" by Mr Tully. Happily the improvement in the boys' manners and general demeanour are truly staggering, "that lad Rathbone has a bit of a spring in his step lately" commented one pub regular, and "Who the bleeding hell cut his hair ?" was uttered by another. This turnaround in the boys fortune is good for all at the H&A as his ranting and raving behind the bar were on the verge of warranting some sort of  internal judicial action, so on behalf of all at  the H&A I offer a profound thank-you to the girl involved

Is Weston "Bending The Knee"?

The  H&A tipster competition is now three weeks old. Fifteen entrants multiplied by three equals forty-five selections. Number of winners picked........THREE... and Elmo Weston has "picked" two of  them (the other by Billy Kemp, well known to enjoy a flutter or two) one at 12/1 and the other at 11/2. The question must be who is he bribing or sleeping with to get such good tips?. He is not known for his financial extravagance at the bar so bribery can probably be ruled out, so one can only assume he's found someone to, as we say -  " Bend The Knee", and is  gleaning equine information to help him in his quest to win the competition. Now I don't know any female companions with a knowledge of racing within his circle of friends so again one must assume the other gender is  likely to be involved. A number of promising candidates come to mind to who this partner may be but it would be very wrong of me to divulge my suspicions, and after all there is no rule saying that a partner or "chum" may not assist.

Mundy on a Sunday after latest horse flops

One of the pre-competition favourites, A.P. Mundy. a former jockey himself and a respected tipster has been a major disappointment so far. Touted by many to win the money he has failed to deliver anything that even looks likely to be a winner. Endless pawing over the form-book seems to have taken it's toll on Mundy resulting in some quite vehement outbursts in the pub lately. It has been suggested that his tantrums are very similar to another one of the favourites, and winner of a previous competition.......Dave the Grave. Mr Grave is a well known firebrand in the pub and reacts very sourly to anyone who goes anywhere near his plastic carrier bag. What the bag contains is a mystery to all and any enquiry as to it's contents are met with a torrent of abuse and foul language. This behaviour is commonplace with Mr Grave and now increasingly with Mr Mundy. Perhaps some probing into Mr Grave's family tree may indicate a link with the diminutive Mr Mundy as their traits and rantings are so similar.

Tully/Weston in shameless attack

Add caption

The reprieve given to Tully and Weston regarding the Dream Team competition seems not to have had the desired effect. The generousity shown to the pair was thrown back in the face of the H&ADT admin last week as more vitriolic criticism was directed toward the organizers. One or the other or even both of the dubious duo was beleived to have aimed an unforgivable insult towards the long suffering administration (me).
To be called a fascist (by Weston) was bad enough, but to be compared to Sepp Blatter is truly reprehensible. The information was passed to me by a very reliable and trustworthy source. Weston currently leads the H&A tipster competition after two weeks.He has had two out of two winners resulting in a profit of 17.5pts.It makes this sorry episode all the more puzzling as an unprovoked attack on the admin will undoubtedly involve some kind of penalty. Whilst it is very difficult to deal with someone with the problems that Weston has it cannot be overlooked. Preliminary investigations point to a possible partnership with Tully who has had an amazingly piss poor start to the new competition and is currently on -2pts. Tully the winner of the H&ADT was previously reported as squandering all of his winnings on ale and model trains, but the ongoing investigation points to some of the money going on paying a "professional tipster service" to try and gain an advantage. Let me be quite clear in condemning such unsporting behaviour right now, and rest assured that the other competitors can rely on severe sanctions being imposed on the two unsavoury characters involved.

Tipster Competition



Elmo Weston the same Mr Weston in the Dreamteam "facist slur outrage" is top of the league after week 1 of the H&A Tipster Comp. The reason he is currently lying at the top is that he was the only one with a winner !. A great start for the follicly and vertically challenged individual. He didn't have a blind clue that his 12/1 pick had won as he was - quote- "walking the dog and fishing". or was it "walking the fish and dogging" ?, I can't remember. I dare say that when he picks a loser he will show his true colours and explode into a tirade of cider induced abuse aimed at who ever is unfortunate enough to be within earshot.
