geordie1234 Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 At the recent SNFC Management Committee meeting there were at least 4 on the Committee who would have liked to return to pre 2000 National Racing ie, Dropping the Inland races and returning to what the original racing was.. The promotion of Long Distance Racing into Scotland as the present system has seen less income into local Federations and the demise of Combines, We were given short thrift.. Less members, Less birdage so the costs will be rising to cover loss making races and no doubt that will see more members changing sides OMONae secrets wae you Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy Posted November 1, 2018 Report Share Posted November 1, 2018 For me it would be Gold Cup 540-550 miles into Central belt usual date, then a yearling only race from Ypres mid July then a 600 mile race 3rd week in July. Stick to this to build the teams of long distance birds back up. Inland Races can be taken care of by the Federations by splitting East & West of the country for joint convoying, combine/Amal etc. It’s already being talked about for this coming season. Maybe the National AGM needs to be sooner than the end of January as some of the Federations will decide what they’re doing next month...
