Hasn't taken long for the dude that has destroyed the afl to make his mark at new job. On top of destroying RSN radio station in his first week he has done this!
Racing clubs across Victoria are bracing for the Gillon McLachlan-led Tabcorp to start shutting down on-course tote facilities at the end of the spring carnival.

In a blow to punters and years of tradition, the gambling giant is looking to cut back face-to-face terminals at tracks in all three racing codes
You go to Greyhound meetings and hardly find a bookie and trots very few far between apart the main courses.
His legacy in footy and racing will be read beyond most of our graves.
 
Clueless about what the actual racegoer needs. Not everyone has multiple betting accounts and the older gen prefer the ticket in the hand that they can collect later if need be, at their local TAB outlet. Place a bet with one of the very few bookies on track these days, and if you are lucky enough to get a result, then you need to collect on track, otherwise you are juicy fruited.
Not just Gil, but everyone in charge of racing in this state is running it into the ground. It's just another indication (admission) that no-one cares about actual attendances. They don't care what people bet on, and the TAB would prefer people bet on the "cartoon" races dogs and trots, as they can run them every couple of minutes.
NSW gets it, and we are just being left in it's wake. Morons the lot of 'em. Thank God Gil didn't get the RV gig.
