FOX venue refunded for 'absolute farce'

Gee, thanks for the heads up. I fully expected to see a battle for the ages.

I figured if I was going to comment on the fight, the least I could do was actually watch it. It fulfilled and indeed surpassed every expectation I had sitting down to watch it at the start of the night.

 

Just out of curiosity is there a news article on this or is it word of mouth?

 

Sorry, wasnt doubting just wanted to see if there was an article i could send to some friends.

 

If he buys a new brand of beer that nobody buys does he get the money for that back?

When channel 10 buy one tree hill from america and play it for 3 episodes before dropping it do they get their money back?

When I rent a video out and it is **** do i get my money back?

Julian man or women just made a **** decision and should nut up and live with it.

As for your statement about him not being a boxing expert. Its called market research, he should do some. If the other poster is correct and only 5 pubs in Melbourne bought it then it means that most other people werent making **** decisions like this guy.

 

When do the rest of the punters get their money back?

 

Didn't someone post something here the other day about how pubs and clubs sign up to an annual broadcast schedule with the likes of Fox and Sky?

Meaning that perhaps the pubs and clubs had already paid for the card previously on the good faith that it would be a card worth watching and would therefore draw the punters in?

You've got to remember too that pubs and clubs showing these cards often have to get extra staff in/open up a bar that would normally be closed on a Wednesday night, etc - that all costs them money on top of the Fox/Sky fee.

Perhaps many places that chose not to broadcast it preferred to absorb the fee they'd already paid for the event in order to avoid having to pay extra staff to work the event.

Also, being a pub landlord is a pretty full-on job, you've got a lot of **** to keep tabs on and make sure things get done, the bloke may not be a boxing fan and therefore wasn't aware of just how shitty the card really was - I mean, 2 blokes who had their own opponents pencilled in end up fighting each other because their opponents pulled out, SBW vs a bloke who nobody knew anything about and had barely seen, etc.

A few years ago punters got their money back when Barry White toured out here and was apparently woeful - people walked out and were eventually refunded their money by the ticket agencies.

 

i hope this becomes a trend for Mundine cards but not others, i would hate pubs to stop buying the good ones because they have become gun shy by the Mundine debarcle

 

What?

The value for the pub is dependant on the amount of beers sold not the actual boxing quality.

He overestimated his patrons stupidity. his ****ing problem. **** this guy.


This julian **** is worse than doll bludging scum.

Imagine if everyone in the world could be reimbursed for every **** purchase they made...

Take some ****ing responsibility

 

He was sold a dud. A fraud. A con.

Fox knew it, and refunded him no problems.

 

I dont have a problem with fox being generous

I do have a problem with cry baby bitches who cant take responsibility for their lives and blame their bad decisions on others.
