THE TIME FOR CHANGE IS NOW. THE OLD GUARD MUST GO!

Its time to petition for the removal of Joe Faraoldo and Russell Williams, from the USTA. They are not in place for the betterment of the industry. They are functioning to serve themselves.

It’s true about Faraldo for sure. Gural wrote in HRU that he met with Faraldo asking him to bury the hatchet and find some way to move forward together. Gural reported Faraldo totally rejected Gural’s offer. This is just another example of how Faraldo wants to be king and not change so many bad policies that his buddy at the USTA supports.

Faraldo is Williams puppet. But the people are beginning to speak. Hanovers sales are sliding away. The Standardbred Sales company and off, and the industry is begining to realize that supporting these clowns must stop. The grass roots must take hold and run these guys out on a rail.

Get a copy of the USTA bylaws and see what getting him removed entails.  I'm sure between all of us and our social media we could put some heavy pressure on them for removal.

Joseph A. Faraldo, President!  So much for the SCM constant bashing of Faraldo!

Stick to kissing Edita's ass Mike although that's going to get you anywhere as well.

I predict Mark Ford will also be easily reelected.

I had no idea Old Guy, thanks for the update.

Again SCM you have become totally irrelevant. The constant bashing of Mark, Ray and Joe was just a total waste of everyone's time including yours.  When are you going to learn.

Congratulations Mark, Joe and Ray!

I think that Joe Faraldo might be well intentioned over the years, but i think a change might be good for the future of harness racing.

Gaagoots- please tell me, you're playing stupid...
You had to of known that no one had the balls to run against Ford. Business as usual, so they think. It won't last, and ppl like Ford will be the downfall
