In a press release published on Tuesday 28 April 2020, Phumelela state that they are committed to doing everything possible to halt the spread of the coronavirus and have therefore decided to suspend the printing of the ComputaForm and ComputaForm Express.
This decision has been taken whilst the entire racing value chain waits with bated breath on government to decide whether racing can continue from Friday 1 May 2020.
Should racing get the green light, both the ComputaForm and ComputaForm Express will be available online only – free of charge for punters worldwide – with immediate effect.
Both publications will be available on www.tabonline.co.za under the ComputaForm header on the menu bar. There will be a ComputaForm and ComputaForm Express option.
ComputaForm: http://news.tabonline.co.za/Computaform/ComputaForm
ComputaForm Express: http://news.tabonline.co.za/Computaform/ComputaForm-Express
The simplified TAB totesheets will still be available at no charge at the following URLS:
On the day: http://news.tabonline.co.za/Fields-Tips/Todays-Racing
Future: http://news.tabonline.co.za/Fields-Tips/Future-Racing
Phumelela Publishing will ensure current online subscribers who have paid in advance will not lose out. Any credit on their accounts will remain in place until such time as the printed edition is resumed and the online edition is again limited to subscribers.
Phumelela Publishing understand that there are punters who prefer the printed hardcopy, but in these trying times, desperate measures will become the order of the day, no matter how unfortunate.
For now, there is no alternative.
