SALE FOR DAGENHAM MARKING STATION FOR THE THAMES NORTH AND EASTERN COUNTIES FLYING CLUB

 

With what started as a dream in 2020 a couple of East London and Essex fancier’s heads, as being in a position where people in East London and Essex could race pigeons on the south road locally soon became a reality. A marking station that started with 9 members, has grown dramatically in 1 full season meaning that the start of 2021, has seen this small acorn grow to a mighty oak of around 25 members. The membership of the marking station ranges from the Isle of Dogs as far out as the Bishop Stortford, and the membership contains many multiple London North Road Combine winners, Essex & Kent Amal winners, and even in its short period of formation UBI combine and BICC winners. However, with this huge increase it means that we have outgrown our current facilities in the Royal British Legion Beacontree club, which means that we now have to build a facility within the club grounds that can safely hold all our equipment, and also allow us to mark our pigeons away from the weather. I would like to thank the fanciers in advanced that have pledged young birds to our sale and their continuous support.

Lot 1 David Hales and Duncan Goodchild, Essex: Unbelievable way to start a sale!! This loft year on year proves how fantastic it is.

The partnership kindly offers a pair of 2021 young birds.

Lot 11 John Halstead, Dorset: Probably one of the most famous pigeon fanciers in the country, not only because of his results at channel and long distance events, but also because of his very in-depth instructional pigeon videos, that I think at some point or another every pigeon fancier in the game would have seen one. Known for his great wins from Barcelona and Palamos, this top of the draw fancier has also won channel events from the shorter events too, making his title of one of his videos ‘Any distance Widowhood’ very apt.

Lot 12 Carbon Lofts, George Metcm, Essex: Brand new racing stud created in 2020. Basing their lofts on National and international winning lines. Their motto uses the old Geoff Kirkland phrase that the “Apple Never Falls Far From The Treeâ€, and they have invested so to represent that.

Lot 13 Steven Fenech, Essex: Exceptional record racing on the North Road with London North road combine, Essex Combine and Essex and Kent Amalgamation wins, with his team of Dennis Sapin pigeons. Now Steven has started to race on the south, and probably has the most complete collection of original Dirk Van Den bulcke pigeons in the world. This loft definitely will leave its mark racing on the south road, as they have done wherever they have raced. Steven family of birds have won globally and will only go from strength to strength, this loft kindly offers a 2021 young bird for the marking station sale.

Lot 14 John Wheatcroft: John has a name that every time you pick up the pigeon papers, you see that winner after winner has been produced from his line of pigeons. John is famous for sourcing the best from Belgium, especially his family of Leo Heremans. I believe John has produced winners in every major organisation within the UK. John offers a great opportunity to purchase a 2021 young bird to give YOU the chance to add your name to the list of winners that he has produced!

John was a top sprint flyer on the North Road when racing in the heart of east London, and when moving to kent, he has set his sights on long distance racing, and is really making the UK stand up and look with 5x1st Open BICC under his belt, and believe me it will not stop there. John kindly donates a young bird.

Lot 18 Lenny Jenkins, Essex: Lenny has won wherever he has raced from, the last few seasons he has been silent partner with the very successful fancier Tony Calverly of Dagenham.

Lot 19 Dale Bagge, Essex: Dale has been back in the sport for only a short time, but in that time he has won club and federation on the north road.
