I agree with you but clubs wouldn't survive with these types of fanciers.Nothings good for the big team fancier,costs of more feed, more meds, more birdage etc etc, also these fanciers are subsidising clubs with going every week and sending more. Ive always went to every race in the fed programme ( when part of a fed )even with a small team of birds but now I carry a lot more birds as I send to every national as well and the expense is unreal. Back to 12-15 pair for me I think.
