Sunderland a bit rash on this decision, as they were with O'Neil last year. Should never have gotten rid of O'Neil now its biting them in da azz.

I got 5 from ursel George. Paid for 4 through fire fund sales on this and another site. You threw one in for free, for which i thank you. From the 5 i have 3 left and they didnt set the house on fire, but done all i asked from them. Good birds and im really happy with them. I got another 6 from Paddymac on here. 3 of his still left and same, done all i asked of them. One pair of nestmates looking like real decent pigeons. I bought a pair of Pats on sale on this this site. these 11 which originated from sales on Basics have give me much enjoyment, and im looking forward to racing them 2014. atb Mick

Young....had 60...killed 3...started training with 57....lost 3 down the traditional line(corridor fly), after that hard training they were given across the Sperrins. I lost about 20 in one stinker of a toss. any how 3 races 140 - 200 mile and im left with 30. 22 raced and 8 trained to the ballz(injuries or returnees). 1st 2 races i was 3rd and 5th, then 3rd and 4th, me 3rd race i was 20 minutes behind but would have made top ten if i had went to clock check. happy with young this year 30 left from 60 and a few late breds running around. atb Mick

firstly ..i have to say im not an all out racing man. I fly for me and me birds, and if im lucky to win or take a few positions, then im happy with that. No national racing here as its a 150 mile round trip to send and if lucky enough to get one its a 150 mile round trip to clock check. i work full time and have a young family, which means the pigeons work around me, not me around them. I enjoy me birds and to me thats what its all about. anyhow OBs, only sent to 5 races, 3 inland races and would have made top in all 3 in club, but didnt goto to clock check. The first channel race i won. then the french race which i sent 6, turned into a calamity, held for 5 days then brought back to England then released. never saw a feather and i think only 230 were recorded over 3 days from a convoy of about 2500. was i happy with OBs...mixed emotions atb Mick

Very true Bill...the academies in those countries are far superior to the home nations. It all starts at grass roots.

Vinny he kept Villa top 6 for 3 years without getting any support from the bank. He has an awesome pedigree and i think he was shafted at Sunderland

Bill but if ROI get Martin O'Neil, they wont need world beaters to compete. He gets the best from average players...just look at what he done with Leiscester, Aston Villa then the mighty Hoops Mick

9 times out of 10 it is :mad: ...just hope and pray its kids and they get released, then start turning up

on a serious note ...Paul i hope u find out who done this and get some if not all of the birds back. Sickening act happening too often

your a cheeky devil Billy ...but ill deal and send 4 :emoticon-0136-giggle: good nite Billy over

why certainly Billy ....watch out scotland :emoticon-0140-rofl:
