A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Mansfield is marmite. Some people see him as a Bill Cullen-type rags-to-riches hero who rose to rub shoulders with the horsey crowd by taking risks and giving two fingers to the establishment.
    Others see him as a dangerous man with very dodgy relationships and complete disregard for laws or other people when it came to getting his own way.


    You're talking about the late Mansfield Snr. But his son has a nice bunch of people helping with his, er, property management issues as well.

    If you're too young to have heard of The Border Fox, aka Dessie O'Hare, have a look at Gene Kerrigan's Hard Cases publication.

    A bad lot.
