  5. best of luck with them mate - it's always a scary time YB racing!
  6. fanciers that claim to know what causing the losses but won't share the knowledge of how to stop it and then come on blaming fellow fanciers for losses - it is plenty to do with BOP, some down to atmospherics and weather, some down to poor prep and a little down to off - colour birds no doubt - if birds are going into baskets ill then it should be weeded out at club level but if until those "in the know" share what they know that would stop any birds being ill....then fanciers will continue to unknowingly put birds through with different levels of health?

    Thanks

    Enjoy your birds and your racing Kenny - it's still a wonderful sport the highs and lows can be extreme but stick with it and have a good time
  8. 1. First inland race to be yearlings only (OB can be sent but Yearling to be the trophy winner) - hoped for effect, an "aim for yearlings" which my then be stopped or saved having done their bit and increasing the OB send in subsequent years 2. No OB National under 300 miles to any loft in Scotland and yearlings banned from Longest race and Gold Cup - hoped for effect - see above 3. YB National to be brought back (50 miles less) as pointless having a National where half the country are jumping their YBs another 80 mile it's simply a SE of the country feeding frenzy - The bias to the East is too great from Leicester - hoped for effect bigger send from sections which do not currently send any more than a few % of the convoy 4. Limit of 25 birds per National race introduced for all races - hoped for effect a more even send at many races where it seems some feds empty their lofts into the nat races and increasing an already huge bias in the geographical spread of the convoy (by default encouraging the smaller sending sections to take a bigger part) 5.Regional averages can be won even when a bird is not timed (as in section F) in a disaster race providing the fancier who was leading before the disaster has sent to the race. Fact is that fancier remains the champion of that section regardless of the last result These are simply off the top of the head thoughts - I am sure there are arguments for and against all of the above. let's hope for sensible comment on people's ideas - going by some forums this is not always the case
