philg50 Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 Whats happening now there must be some one out there knows what going on .Just been sorting out all paper work pertaining to keeping my doos and what a load of crap ye collect so that brought me to think of the big question ,WHAT THE HELLS GOING ON .Now i am nae interested in who said what to who and all the politics just some one involved on taking on the top table to come on here and explain whats happening at this moment and by who .At this rate we will all be asking to join the Moray Firth Fed .As for the ruling it cant be spoken about on here there are 90 or so members i am led to believe and for this reason bring it into the open on here is the best way to spread the word.

grdkeith Posted February 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 Briefly ,the shu counted the votes in our recent vote of no confidence in our president,took 11 days for him to announce he had lost and now he wants to have the vote again but counted by our own counting team. SHAMEFUL MESS 744 POSTAGE STAMPS LATER AND WE ARE NO FURTHER ON WHEN WE SHOULD HAVE HAD A MEETING EARLY DECEMBER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordon wilson Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 you are right Jimmy but our president want to delay it as long as he can so that he thinks we wont get any racing in 2022. He has tried all the tricks but he is no longer our fed president by vote his only job now is to hand over the audited accounts and be a man and accept the fact and step down we will manage great without him How can a fed president who has lost the vote and now only a fed member just arrange another vote of no confidence on himself because he was not happy at the shu counting of the votes its a joke we know all basic members are sick of this posts but this lets you see what we are up against Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Hay Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 I haven't got a letter. So is it just another vote of no confidence again? Or is there also fed proposals and race programme to vote on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dooheed 5 Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 Totally ignoring and trying to make fools out of the Governing Body of the Racing Pigeon Sport in Scotland !! Hope SHU stand up to his actions and deal with it swiftly and accordingly as this highlights exactly why most wanted him out of this position !!

doomaloon Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 Just now, doomaloon said: the way i read this gordon is the president lost the vote of no confidence ,then you sent an letter to the shu complaining that the vote was crooked and have appealed the result.did you send a letter of appeal to the shu because thats the way i read it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Chequer Pied Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 I think Gordon's appeal was relating to the fact that the vote of no confidence was not actually actioned by the fed in the first place. The SHU then facilitated the vote weeks after it should have originally been held. Gordon can't appeal a result that has only been published officially today.

gordon wilson Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 My appeal was sent to the SHU on 25th of January by email and shu got it on 26th january showing proof of posting proof of delivery to Mrs Birnie before the vote closed on 28th january Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbiedoo. Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 Can someone please explain to me as to why we can't have a open AGM. How much times do we the members have to vote over and over about the same thing. To me all this letters is just wasting the feds money going round in circles and getting no where apart from bringing the fed down and disheartening the members. Some people seem to forget this is just a hobby but it appears to me a bit more for some. For the sake of the fed and its members have a meeting to get everything sorted out and put a end to all this bullsht a easy solution made even easier with most of the covid restrictions lifted and I am sure we could get a venue if we really wanted.

gordon wilson Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 my appeal was sent as many members did not get there forms early enough and gave some only three days to get them returned and it was to safeguard them this was done , as it transpires I believe only two votes came late and they were disregarded by the SHU as past the date Raymong Birnie set so we were fortunate our supporters pulled out the stops to get there votes in on time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sapper756 Posted February 11, 2022 Report Share Posted February 11, 2022 I believe this situation has been debated on Basics recently, and was open to views and opinions from all sides for a lengthy period, (60+ posts) for this reason I am now locking this thread. Hopefully your Federation will come to a solution, and true fanciers can get back to racing their pigeons, good luck. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
