JADE

what you heard not many on lib line

Have patience. Lot of heavy showers up the east coast. Birds will be well split up. Dont think there will be that many over the forth tonight as darkness will beat them

looking like Monday now.

The best doo on the day in the conditions won the last race and I would think the same will apply tomorrow or whenever they get up. Lanarkshire are there because their members voted for it and if the conditions are not in their favour then thats the perils of national racing. Your turn will come again (not yours tho bigda cos your feart to enter)

I agree with most of your comments. However I would guess 40% are 2 yo and 30% are older birds. Probably half the convoy (at least) are on some form of widowhood so that leaves approx 750 pigeons over 2 yo. Many of these as you say are destined for Ypres or Clermont. Yes there are many widowhood fliers send birds to the channel but there are just as many or more who dont. The bottom line is there are a limited number of channel pigeons in Scotland and that is the main reason why entries are decreasing

Got to disagree Gareth. There is no way you would get 1000 of the Eastbourne doos at Messac. I reckon about 30% of the entry will be yearlings. You would get some of them going back if the Gold Cup was three weeks after Eastbourne but that will never happen.

so pointless that it looks like a 5000 bird entry for Eastbourne

looks like sunday to me

not sure how you can justify your statement. snrpc have, Reims, Fontenay (assume it is Tours equivalent) and Arras which is shorter than Aberdeen fly from Eastbourne. Is Saintes still in the programme?

I agree. the members keep voting for them every year. Many of the long distance specialists dont send their gold cup birds to the first inland race if their federation has an alternative race. Obviously a bad race has some bearing on the entries but the same could happen in a club race. The ultimate decision is with the individual fancier, if the weather doesnt look good keep them in the loft

it was there but its disappeared.corrected result to follow. whats the problem?

Think it will be hard going for you north guys today. Been rain right up the east side of the country since 10 this morning. Good luck

nothing to do with race point. wind direction i would say but the best doo on the day won it so well done

SHU rules state if no birds are timed in club the race is disregarded for averages. not sure about members who did not send

as sure as night follows day when the national season starts someone with a bag of tatties on their shoulder starts girning about the snfc with no names to back up his claims. how many have you going to any national this weekend? have you timed on the day this season yet?

sunday dont look any better than saturday to me. better to be at the racepoint as the weather is unpredictable

Great entertainment from both players. Judd Trump - what a talent. One complaint - why do they persist in interviewing players just after the match finishes. Cant believe Hazel Irvine asked John Higgins about the death of his father two minutes after he wins the world championship.

SHU Club Rule 8. Where any member wishes to alter delete or add to any recognised organised activities noticed of same must be given 28 days before the AGM to the Club Secretary (in writing) Agenda including resolutuions to be in members hands at least 7 days before meeting

[quote name='sapper756' Possible candidates; Martin Jol Martin O'Neill Alan Shearer Chris Hughton Tim Sherwood Sven Goran Eriksson Dont think its big enough club for O`Neill or Shearer How about John Hughes, Jimmy Calderwood or Mark McGhee (or maybe the Chuckle Brothers)

one direction gone

Brown must go !!!

same here never got last week. see if this weeks turns up tomorrow. think i might stop it till racing starts

never got last weeks. really is pathetic. if it doesnt improve soon i think i will cancel it

dont think his face fitted somehow. thought they were doing ok. hope they now get relegated would serve them right
