  11. bang on tony my youngbirds train 2 or three times a week every week all through the season even if they dont win as youngbirds its about getting there head right for the future but up here everytime you put them in the basket you take the chance of bop getting them but they have to go imo

  15. your right mick
  16. only needs one or two guys in each club to get it up and running dell
  17. no dout the wind was a big factor but i now think also we are not getting a true race from anywhere due to the bop problem many youngbirds are now hiding as soon as bop appears or turning away and might now be wasted for racing as there confidence is gone i agree with frank in that the birds are being hit every few miles from the race point all the way home we watched it happen two weeks ago while waiting on the fed trainers to go over before letting our latebreds up the fed birds were hit three times once at coalburn once at lesmahagow and once at blackwood some birds hit the deck the others kept splitting into smaller and smaller baches some dived into the trees for cover all in the space of about 6 or 8 miles and was told they also got hit that day at elvanfoot soon as they were libbed how can you get a true race when this is happening the birds have no chance we have to stop crying about it and get off our backsides and do something to sort it now soon as racing stops bop will hit anything that moves if everyone does there bit we will help solve a big part of the problem the guys with lofts in rural areas can have a big impact as they have a much better chance to help instead of locking there birds up for the winter they know what needs done as you will be hit first soon as the racing is over only an odd one comes down as far as us in the central belt but as the food source stops with racing they will have to hunt more and more down here the guys up country need to get the finger out to not just the odd one or two that are trying to help come on guys dont let them kill our sport help us ps instead of locking up lock out
  18. 2 this morning 6 from 11 glad thats the last one for us going to get my unrung ones up for a few tosses now
  19. was going to ask same thing dell
  20. birds were still coming out the south after you left andy which tells me they have been hiding or avoiding something en route all should have come out the east today in that wind but no excuses my m8 big jamie has 3 out of three in good time so there just not good enough on the day imo
  21. not happy with that andy but im sure we will get some in the morning it was what i expected a real hard race and where sunday looked the better day ive no problem with them being up today if the feds would have held them there would be men complaining they should have been up all hard races are the same some get them some dont but im not blaming race controller because mine are not all home in a hard race thats pigeon racing im afraid ps forgot to say i was 2nd in club with the guy i said was fav being 1st 3rd 4th 5th 6th our sec is on a night out so ill get full result on tomorrow
