Concur with Wiley.

The great Eddie Newcombe told me never to send when the 4th drops out as the covers start to throw. Its something I personally have adhered to.

10 birds from the Camelon area maybe more.

Out of curiosity what is a "sticky"??.

Am wan anaw.

Put him in a basket and leave for 30 minutes. Take him out and handle again, If he handles the same as 30 minutes ago then send him if not put him back in the loft. OMP.

Congratulations to all who made the result and commiserations to all who were dissapointed. Their is always next year.

Aye an ye gaed *expletive removed* all tae the handlers ya greedy s#it.

FIRSTLY, Let me appologise for anything posted by myself last night as it was due to waiting for an arrival which never happened so started looking at a different bird in a bottle of grouse. I genuinely never intended to upset any one however I probably have so once again my sincerest appologies to those concerned.

Oh Aye YOU DONT HAVE THE GUTS TO NAME NAMES ! YOU WANT OTHERS TO DO IT FOR YOU YOU SPINELESS PIECE OF OFALL.

Anyone who has not the backbone to name his names are dependant on Ian Brown who wishes to see the demise of the SNFC and will back you up to the hilt regardless should also not be a convenor of our posts likewise others who want to run our sport.

Aye maybe so

Your talkin S@*te

Once again WHO SHOULD RESIGN NAME NAMES OR SHUT YOUR GUB.

No he's no

WHY ? It was p~@sing down at Preston all morning especially at 10.00 and our so-called race controllers had packed the job in because they were under the impression they were being undermined. However it is the officials who determine what and where the race will take place to the successful return of the candidates we have sent and they should have abided with their station.

Once again you speak in riddles ! Please clarify or are you the JOKER.

Perhaps that is the problem with me. I changed my methods to modern ways but I will now go back to the old and trusted ways without the mollycodling of youngsters, and feeding mainly beans. At present I am feeding grub at £16.50 a bag and I know I wont get more than 4-5 Hrs racing out of them. I wonder how many fanciers have waited in vain to-day with the same thought's going through their heads. My philosophy has always been if that loft can get one so should I.

Thanks for the kind thoughts as I am experienced enough to know that they will return eventually in their own time. Having had to start again from scratch last year the birds I sent were mostly yearlings that were very lightly treated as youngsters and I will not be going down that road again. I have never before in all my years never clocked on the day in an inland race but blame no-one but myself.

Sorry I have not been updated since 19.00. Personally I have 0 from 4 and can only say they were not good enough on the day.

Approximately 30 birds sent from the village 4 lofts only 2 gallant birds made the day.

Mayby's aye Mayby's naw.

I have had a crap day too but like others I want him to name them or is that to difficult to understand !!.

I firmly believe you need to answer the question and name the officials who over-ruled you as we are entitled to know. You have poisoned the minds of others by your remarks.

Why can you not name them or are you afraid of possible consequences.
