Think it was 1982 and you'll find the highest birdage Lanarkshire had at that time or any time for that matter would have been 12,000

 

Remember reading an article about them in pigeon mag late seventies.

 

may have been someone who won with there black jets, maybe nipa or somthing,

 

long time back, just remember the 30,000 birds bit sticks in your mind

I think in the Lanarkshire you can only compete in your own club  , the pigeons appear to come out the back end of the campsie hills ( If the birds where coming direct south the overfly rule would come into play but they are in every week in time before us)  our club is Clarkston and Glenmavis and Coatbridge are well in front each week, am not complaining appart from one stinker of a yb race the returns in our club where outstanding in the young bird programme.

Actually Vincent I think you and Bigda are the 2 most logical members.

Completely different perspectives and kicking with different feet but logical none the less

Somone has got out of bed on the wrong side  , possible  debate the point with you at the federation meeting , enjoy your pigeons  . Tom Corrie JNR

 

tom if you cant beat g macalonie  you are the same as 500 members on here  but dont cry wolf,  if i had my way you would have been   in the newmains  section  and that would be your true possision in the fed, why it did not happen that is another  story, and should you  got in there,  you would have  maybe better results, but as  for  you to  say they come out the campsies  your are a lot nearer them than the boys from carluke but that dont bother you none there ;)
