Guest Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 Thanks Alf a cracking 600 mile to the Northern boys, best of luck to everyone. To win whether you are the shortest or longest flyer they need to be spot on
Guest Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 It disnae help me its just my honest opinion. Well if it don't help you why post? Those that value the Gold Cup don't need to have it!
slinky slitheroe Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 TELL us why you think that ?Ucould be last in every gold cup race by hours and still win it .I still say a very overated cup .
Guest Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 Slinky you are just trying to rile those that are competing. You don't think its of value that's fine but why interfere and post on here with those that are participating and relish the challenge
slinky slitheroe Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 Slinky you are just trying to rile those that are competing. You don't think its of value that's fine but why interfere and post on hear with those that are participating and relish the challengeIthink iam entitled to my opinion and what riles me is the fact that it gets coverage in the SNFC year book i ask why? as i said before its a cup in a lanarkshire club not a national trophy.
JADE Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 It disnae help me its just my honest opinion. i take it you have never won it..........even by being last in every race
slinky slitheroe Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 i take it you have never won it..........even by being last in every raceGet real thats not the point.

Thanks Slinky for coming clean. Your place for challenge/change is the SNFC. It is a democratic organisation, if however they decide that it should stay after challenge then time to drop it. But this is not the forum to have a go, there are fanciers on here that are looking forward to a great distance race, someones dreams will come true and others will be delighted with their performances, others will be dissapointed but will try again to get the dream. What are you doing trying to sour it? because you are sour that this competition should be seen as pestigious enough to be included in the SNFC handbook? Enjoy this site fight for your opinions and rights and I would certainly support you 100% on your right to protest but do us all a favour and complain at the right place , this forum has no control over this issue.
frank-123 Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 the gold cup is competed for by some of the top fanciers in the west of scotland and i am sure any of these fine fanciers would be glad to win this trophy racing against top distance minded fanciers and i am sure your opinion will mean very little to whoever wins this years gold cup or any other year in the future
