When I read of a federation of 16 members sending 101 birds to a race of approximately 260 miles I feel it is time to despair for the future of our sport.

 

The above was posted without disrespect for anyone.

I'm afraid hope for the future was given up many years ago. We are unable to compete against computers and social media which seem to completely enthrall our youngsters. When you fail to re-energise your hobby by introducing new Members, then decline is the only direction left. We have had an approximate 5% decline year on year since I started in 2009. Add into the mix the BOP problem and this only accelerated said decline.

 

I think Paul Macaloney hit the nail on the head when two years ago he stated that we should embrace the fact that eventually the whole of the west of Scotland will be one Federation.

I'm afraid it's nothing to do with bop or computers
