Nikki - oh I don't like greyhound racing,
John - oh, its terrific, terrific
Nikki - So cruel
John - Oh how, what are you, what are you talking about, what do you mean its cruel, why is it cruel, why are they so happy to go and chase the bunny, what is wrong with that
Nikki - because the horses jump over the hurdle and fall over and I just
John - you said you don't like greyhound, whats wrong with greyhound racing,
Nikki - because they're dogs, they're pets
John - Yeah so, they're dogs, they chase, are you so inhuman that you dont let dogs do what they naturally do.....(there is more but still doesnt touch upon it (re: hurdles)


Where was the mention of John saying they don't hurdle?

She did say it has hurdles, john said it doesn't.

Im the same as you InOne, just watched it back, even did a brief transcript, but no mention of there being no hurdles

When did he say it then?

Knew it went more like that lol Nikki is clueless

What are you on??...Nikki is the girl that was sitting on the wooden horse- John was the old geezer with the big cigar!

Now go and watch it again , and you'll be abled to see Who ended up ...'owning Who'!! :dance:

Farhad, I just uploaded the clip onto rapidshare (although only ten downloads allowed apparently)

please watch the clip and tell me where John says what you are saying he said it, because I cant hear it.

It's cruel on the little bunny though.

can't tell if sarcasm or not.

they don't use a real bunny.

Hear hear

more like mishear mishear

as anyone heard of the Greyhound Grand National? Has lots of jumps!!! - he was wrong - Nikki was right and fully entitled to her opinion as a dog owner herself

How can he be wrong when he didnt say it?

Please. How could that screeching, ignorant little creature possibly own *anyone* ?

lmao, I think you owned this argument! No one is answering any of your very rational posts!:hugesmile:

Is it so wrong that I was even looking at youtube trying to work out how to post the clip there so that I could link it on here.

This is one of the reasons why I haven't been posting on here this season. No debates, full of lies, and insults (Not, referring to this thread in particular there)

Where have the discussions been?

he did say it as it was on live also and unless you reditted that highlight talk when uploading.

I agree with you 100%, there is very little decent debate and exchange of facts going on at all this year.

yeah, because my life is that pathetic I need to edit that.

watch it, you can see its the same as on the show.

Ive just got the live feed of that night now, trying to find it, i'll crop that clip out again.

When did he say it - it will make it easier to find if you can tell me, but I think I won't find it.

i am unable to view vids on the pc i am using at the moment - will check when i get home tonight - but i definitely recall him him say to Nikki when she brought up the hurdles issue that she was wrong there werent any - cant remember exact words - he may not have said the word hurdle(s) but definitely stated his belief they dont have them in greyhound racing on LF

Which LF - on computer or on e/c4?

When Nikki mentioned hurdles she was talking about horses, John just ignored the whole point and had a little rant at her.

The rant doesnt appear to be edited, im flicking through my life feed .avi now trying to find it to see though.

Once you rewatch it give us your feedback as this commentor is trying to twist it to make john mac look good.

i watch lf online on the offiicial ch4 website, Nikki was talking about hurdles in greyhound racing, as a dog owner herself - she is very into animal welfare issues

I don't see how anyone can say greyhound racing's cruel tbh. I've been to see it many times and the dogs LOVE it, it's great for them!

Im not trying to twist anything, Im just saying what I have just watched, I gave you the option to see it as well, and you mention the implication that it was edited.

Also John is horse racing not greyhound racing, they are two different sports.

Im not trying to make John look good, just saying what I saw and what happened.

By the notion that you suggested I was trying to make him look good by saying that he didn't say it, are you suggesting that you are trying to make him look bad by saying the opposite?
