as a member of almond valley i cant agree with mid week racing(nothing new,tried plenty of times before over the years)happy that the fed members have had good returns but lets not kid ourselves neither of these races was past the hump which we all know that is when we have terrible young bird losses,the a/v have a recent trend now of racing midweek and also fridays which i dont think is fair ie work commitments etc,the one area i do agree with the possible clashing point where it definately has advantages,but overall pigeon racing on the weekend for me. :huh:
