Sorry, was that the Best of British day at Belmont Park on Saturday? Are they havin' a laff! Wot a crap day that woz from a marketing point of view. The red white and blue around the posts looked like French flags to me! No English beer (not even warm beer), no pork pies, no English sweet shop like they used to have and not even a hint of some good old spotted dick! The same old Irish food van was converted (badly) for the day into english fare, stuck right out of the way so no one would notice and that was it. Perth Racing roast pork rolls for 10 bucks a pop ( yeah like we all eat them back home). Bugger all in the colours and silks room apart from the addition of some Yorkshire puds to the usual stuff and above all NO ATMOSPHERE!

Where was the Town Crier? Where were the London Bobbies? Where were the English Morris Dancers? Where was the bangers and mash? Seriously, they should let my Mum come and do the catering the next time they do it!

It was a very poor effort from Perth Racing marketing department. All of them should be ashamed of themselves. Over the last two years they've killed Italian Day and Yesterday they just proved that they've bungled the start completely with Poms Day. Ol' Del Boy'd give em a right ear bashin'. Open me another warm beer will ya luv.....

    Yeah a few softcocks that couldn't handle their drink and even a dirty kick from the side when a bloke was down, absolute disgrace, these are the sort of tools that wreck an enjoyable day at the track for the rest of us..

    We saw the whole thing, one of the guys was copping it, and when one was pulled off, another would step in. Lots of families in that area with kids and so forth, not a good look. One guy was escorted away bleeding yelling something about 3 Irishman.....really?!?

    What ever the problem was, grow the f$ck up? Not a good look at all. L-)

    And the security. They were hot on the scene no less than 5 minutes after it all started
