The national should move around the country for its AGM, Aberdeen  ,Gretna, , Dundee,Edinburgh, ect each year

 

The idea is good but in reality it would be a failure, 90% of the members of the club live on or within a 20 Minute drive of the M8 corridor and having a agm in Gretna and Aberdeen would suggle to get the quorum required to carry out the meeting. :)

how very true and thats a fact

I thought the National was for the whole of Scotland , if you take statistics into account, POSSIBLE  90% of National races are won on the south and east of the country( so should we call it the south east national), possible change the consitutional rules and have a postal vote and then you may get everyones views.i like to think we bring equality to the national!

i dont agree with seperate liberations, when you liberate the 1st group the other will be going mental trying to get out. how could we combat this

 

yi couldnt call that a fair race then little alone a national  ;)

Posted

i don't agree either but to combat it use 2 transporters

as at most liberation's there is more than 1 fed there liberating at intervals

Posted

is it only the 1 transporter that goes to the inland nationals

i take it that you didn't mean the channel races as by the time they crossed they would be well split up

and the combined liberation wouldn't make much difference if any

twas me who put up the post with regards young bird national,yes 2 transporters would be required,SECTIONS BCG,1 LIBERATION SECTIONS ADEF THE OTHER.dont think cost would we be as much as members  think,remember the distance would only be leicester or likewise and collection pick up areas and time would be saved,only an opinion but i feel the ybn has become so very much lopsided that unless we try some kind of change the fanciers of the solway,the central belt and also the west of scotland will loose heart. :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/ NB my thoughts are regarding  the YBN only. :) :-/

There where only two races this year when one transporter was uesd alencon & ypres this suited the birdage and welfare of the birds . so could,nt see a problem with two libs at the yb nat. Most fanciers in the real west of scotland no were hitting or head of a brick wall sending to the y b nat.

DJW CAN YOU CALL IT A NATIONAL FROM NEWBURY JUST TAKE A LOOK AT LAST YEARS NEWBURY JOHN HUNTER TIMED A CRACKER AT 17 30 WITH A 9am LIB 160TH OPEN SOME FANCIERS TIMING  6 AND 7 BIRDS AT 260MILES WHAT GLORY DID JHON GET 1ST SEC 160thopen what bird do you think was best in the race i know BUT THIS HAPPENS EVERY RACE YOU WILL NEVER GET AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD {BUT SURLY IF YOU CALL IT A NATIONAL YOU MUST PUT AN OBSTICAL IN FRONT OF ALL BIRDS GLENCAMERON WERE SHARING NOW SO WHATS THE DIFFERENCE OF COUPLING UP WITH ALL RACES THAT WAY YOU WILL GET SNRPC AND SNFC TOGETHER RITCHIE 1 ARE YOU NOT GETTNG FAR ENOUGH DISTANCE IN OUR FED FOR NATIONAL RACES :) :) :)

must agree with walter on this one newbury is a sprint for the south lads through no fault of theres . this year from eastbourne i was 2nd section but not on the open result its to easy of racing for the south lads not enough distance also last year walter got 1 from eastbourne at 9 at night i think and i could be wrong but didnt get a ticket . i thought when we talk about national racing your testing your birds against the best at distance with the inland newbury especialy its not happening so we maybe should look into coupling up with the snrpc .

Posted

i see whare your coming from walter but our fed only goes as far as leicester about 320 miles

one of the reasons to double up with the national was to keep the costs low

the only other way for us to get any distance into our birds and keep the costs low

would be to joint convoy with another fed for the longer races

we went with your fed a few years ago and i think we both scored out of it

 

all our races are from a southerly direction how would you feel about

1 from lerwick 1 from ireland and the rest from a southerly direction

that would give the fanciers in the west 1st drop and the fanciers in the north 1st drop in  1 race at least

it would be great if the 2 feds went together again  for the longest 3 o/b  and   longest y/b race   the only thing stopping it is  an element in the aberdeen fed and an element in the north fed  the only losers over the years have been the fanciers and feds  the oficials from both feds need to put there heads to gether and put a race programm forward  

Posted

thought you were talking about a couple of year ago when aberdeen went with us . your showing youre age now the combine was before my time but i would love it if it started again.

Posted

they voted at the agm to go with the national which we were then tied to

i prefered going with your fed as we lost less birds as they were all going to the same area

Posted

it was the way forward  east side combine dundee upwards    too many  not like it  great competision    not showing no age just got a good memoury  it was Ally Sims    who started jhe got the feds together   wonder where all the throphys  went to all the sect  throphys ect

yes he done a brilliant job  more shame to the guys that wrecked it   JMO  but i am right

please stick to the title of the topic SNFC 2010 programme not feds  :)
