snfc

[Guest Gareth Rankin]

                       cant understand how the up north combine can have 8 nationals when the rest of england dont compete , its my understanding a national is open to whole country .

 

The word Classic would be more appropriate.

weve managed since racing started the only thing that has changed more crap going into the transporters and that is a fact if your desprate to have a mickey mouse race have a training toss and make it the toss--s cup i will donate it  ;D ;D ;D ;D

 

 

now now walter your not supposed to be funny on here or swear be careful the eye might be on  you   but my kind of comment well said ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

the sensible thing to do would be to scrap ypres as it only got 400 birds last year  compare that to 4000 in the inland nationals the long distance flyers have had it their way for to long  we cant race our y..b.sin june because they want to race theirplodders at that time of the year

Thats whot the national was for to send birds to the distance. If folk like the inland ones theres combines do that

If Ypres was raced instead of Newbury on the Newbury date there would be a lot more than 400 birds. Ypres, Reims or Alencon, Tours and Clermont and leave the inland races for the feds to organise.

walter  was in the sixties when 8000 birds went to rennes we aint got the same amount of pigeon fanciers now [unfortunatly]. your only looking after yourself advocating only wanting the nationals from 500 miles if you take out the members who keep sprinters there aint gonna be mutch left, they are your bread and butter , and not all of uss are wanting to waste a weekend waiting on plodders

[Guest bigda]

  sorry bigda but i am sorry if your a *expletive removed* but i just could not get a better heading [ but it is a complement the distance between 1st and last drop 170 miles in a inland race ] that is my heading the toss--s cup and madpup i can tell you ive slept in worse places down in the newcastle area in the sixties  > > >:(a cave man would have been a very proud      [ man friday]   ;D ;D ;D ;D

no need to  tell us  of your  times of trouble, in the newcy area   there has been a hole in the wall in that area for a long time now and all sorts have headed north ;D

[walterbmasson]

 

 

just checked 298 members sent 1243 birds that could easily be over 2.000 birds this year because its a good distance for yearlings on the day what would a fancier rather have in loft for falaise the following year a bird that flew a inland race or one that has been across water[ experence ] ;D ;D ;D

i could understand one for yearlings say penzance but the others just club races they dont count  just a way of the south and southeast to win big pooland prize money all about money    load of tosh   and selling doos 250ml nat    big joke in bad taste   would be different if level playing field  over a 50-60-mile radius  this is just a very bad joke in poor taste  ;D ;D ;D

Agree 100% Andy, but i cant see the membership allowing us to drop both inland races, but it might be worth a go at the AGM.

if day doos are plodders you should keep flying in your club and fed as ive mentioned before on here a national is french races this inland races only started with foot and mouth ---bird flu  ------etc  there is ample monies in snfc  and dont rely on birdage a national will always stand on its own 2 feet and clear its self every race with out inland races which should be left to feds but as its been pointed out on here time after time fanciers who cant get fame from french races uses the back door a inland national ha ha ha a load of crap and say there equal at the national prize giving as a french winner mind boggles yes if that is the way were going snfc is on a slippery slope to ending NATIONAL RACING AS WE KNEW IT 500 600 700 MILE RACES   :D :D

I like Ypres for same reason, to get yearlings across the channel, but I thought one of the inland races would have been dropped when this race was agreed. It would be a cracker of a race if there were 4/5000 birds competing, much better than Newbury.

[Guest madpup]

Yea you should go back to what you were doing in the 70es, much better times and when you sickin all the young lads coming into the sport. you can blame us for the mass deteration of this sport.

[walterbmasson]

IB this race could take off but what chance when commitee recommeds  this crap make national winners worthy of there trophies but with these inland races is stopping the birdage going up [as said back door to the eddie eagle  champion he couldnt even get down the SKI SLOPE HE WAS MADE A HERO BECAUSE HE WAS LAST] this is about where were about now and birdage will keep dropping if its not stopped youve been warned kick it into touch now before its too late  :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/

[Guest stevie-b]

i like the idea of ypres but would the yearlings have had enough hours/experiance if it was at newbury time just food for thought
