THE DIFFRENCE BETWEEN A MASTER and a NOVICE IS THE MASTER HAS FAILED MORE THAN THE NOVICE HAS TRIED.

P.S...Let's not forget we are ALL human...and its in our nature to make mistakes,even the SAME mistakes over and over.

I always love this logic.......so if you can't cook you must never complain about being served shit food? :P

And after being served fine food for many a year do we fire the chef because he has just burnt the sausages

Aliistar Cohen called a wrong horse last night .....that is just an error and he was embarrassed but that is "a burnt sausage" and almost funny!
What we are talking about is Nico, taking a step back and working on his "entire menu" and working to just do accurate , less smart-arse commentaries , and he will be fine.
(When Majmu won the other day he had decided to steal the now famous line (everything they said he was, and he wins) and rehearsed it , but got it wrong -he needs to drop the celebrity illusion and just commentate ......that's all anybody wants!
......but if you like his commentaries, so be it!

Did you hear Alistor Cohen last night. I cannot remember the race but I think he swallowed his tongue because he did not call the horses from the 300m mark.

Hahahaha.I don't like Nico's commentary either,but that doesn't give me the right to judge him.Every horse I bet I follow from the gates,couldn't care less abt the others.Only at night do I watch the full race so to speak,so normally I'm talking to my jock when the race is running,lol

Agree, 100% with you Rob, especially the "celebrity illusion" bit, well said.
