We WIN Gold & H&H Still Haven't Flashed It UP!!!

[Maesfen]

What on earth are they playing at eh? They win Team Gold plus the individual bronze and H & H haven't muttered a word about it on the moving ticker tape thing at the top of the page. What chance any publicity when our own trade paper can't acknowledge world class success?

Wow, well done GB!! Why on earth doesn't at least H&H flag this up?!!
Thank you for bringing it to our notice!

Hoorah, well done Team GB

Not only not on H&H but I see that eventing gets its usual sparkling reporting coverage from the news media too

I only knew about it because it made it into the Observer's sport section on Sunday!!

Good old reporting done by H&H again I see.... And we wonder why so few buy the magazine any more!! It's all too bunny brushery now - if I wanted that, I'd buy H&R, Horse, YH etc!!

 

[Maesfen]

Makes it very obvious that horse people aren't actually running this forum though and a real kick in the teeth for our team too.

 

[FanyDuChamp]

That is really bad, the sport should be reported and the team's win celebrated.

And they wonder why our sport gets little recognition when big names like H&H don't bother to report it

I bought my first H&H paper copy last week as looking for sale etc and was going to subscribe but unfortunately it is really THIN

Realise its economic hardship etc but a couple of us have posted about using the classified searches for sale and how difficult it is to use as a buyer.

H&H use to be THE PROPER HORSE PERSONS MAG..........not sure whats happened??? If i was going to advertise a horse I think Horsemart has to win hands down for ease.

But going back to the post that is terrible...with the Olympics coming up you think the flag would be waved a bit more??

However I think this forum is excellent..thats it!
