hotrod Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 the rule for that is not challenge as to divided the national any further, as members had paid dues before the other one was set up, and there was not a list drawn up of members at that time, but i think there are rules in place now to new members to have only one union but it must be a easier way to combine back into one now, as the management has changed, and should not hold the same threat as it once did in there eyes so the excuses are wearing thinner by the year some want duel membership, if the snfc had done that i AM afraid the snrpc would have folded, as the members are never in favour of paying any more than one union, just my opinion as to what, pigeon fanciers are like WHO HAS INSTALLED THIS RULE BIGDA? the rule for new members can only have one union. is it the SHU OR LANARKSHIRE FED? THIS A DIABOLICAL RULE AND DEFFINATELY AGAINTS THE LAW .
frank-123 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 as for the rule can anybody tell me what good would come of being in two feds not for your own gain but for the survival of the fed if the rule was done away with south lanarkshire fed hold an open race so a lot of lanarkshire members jumps ship to south lanarkshire that day leaving lanarkshire to go down the road with an empty trailer where south lanarkshire would not have enough room to take all the birds the following week a south lanarkshire members jumps ship to lanarkshire's open race they never raced one race all season but come the money race one south lanarkshire member takes first prize and all the money and don't forget south lanarkshire would be down the road empty you would have people paying both fed subscriptions but how would they be able to plan ahead there transporter might be overfull or half empty
hotrod Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 frank we have members of renfrew and glasgow feds and they send to the two most weeks , just gives them two races each week thats not to be knocked , i could fly in two feds as well , but choose to stick to the one as fed racing does'nt bother me, until the later on races when my birds are ready to compete.
Guest Gareth Rankin Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 Good points Bart, and it did happen in Lanarkshire with some of the members that did retain Dual membership, they use to only fly when it was the open races that Lanarkshire had big Prizemoney and a very successful pool money race. But time moves on as they say.

Roland Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 that's a bit like in olden times, if the club say your a witch well a witch is what you are and no one will be able to say different, thats the bit the law kept unto its self incase the poor wanted to join the cigar club and mix ;D ;D ;D All how they use to try 'Witches'. Chuck tem in a pond.... If they drowned, then they weren't Witches.... But if they swam.... Then they were Witches! Simple really. Any way, what is one Fed is South, the other North - like this ways here. Besides in two clubs of North Rd but in two different Feds. Indeed I believe Green Wall and Hunt fly in at least two different fed, if not three or more.
Guest KING BILLY Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 what i would like to no how many fly thare full fed program never mind can you be a member of 2 feds this is whare the prob is get to 250ml and the transporters starts to emptey so if your in 2 feds you only want the open races to suiet yourselfs and not the feds you surport thats how the price of the birds go up

nagid Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 this south lanarkshire-lanarkshire thing should be done away with in my opinion lets have an amal and all race together one big entry would lead to greater racing and better competion.why send two transporters to the same place.that makes no sence to me.just my thoughts
Guest bigda Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 hotrod if the snfc allowed dual member ship in your honest opinion who would gain from this in the long run, I had known guys that wanted this but they didnt realise that it comes with a price, as the big money is in the snfc, then that would be the fanciers choice and your union would be going to the races or your opens with half the amount you have the now, so you are at the mercy of the national and they can drop the bird-age and the union costs if they wanted to, recoup your members and if the credit crunch bites 1,000 members against 400 will decide it, sorry to go from the topic but the lanarkshire has the same pulling power at present

jock3 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 vince is that what caused the break ? away back then

Guest bigda Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 if it did get voted in, do you not think the srpc would be the losers in the long run, as a choice would have to be made sooner rather than latter with costs been the main thing
Guest Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 vince is that what caused the break ? away back then I don't know that one mate,i believe in happened around 1981 and that it was an issue about boundaries.But could not be 100% on that one,there might be other members on this forum that could explain it.
me Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 I think we have had this discussion before. In addition to the right of freedom of association, individuals also have the right not to associate with certain people. That principle can be seen in the link which Bart posted:- 2. No restrictions shall be placed on the exercise of these rights (freedom of association) other than such as are prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security or public safety, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals or for the protection of the rights and freedoms of others. There isn’t any law which forces anyone to associate with known troublemakers, nor are they forced by law to allow them into their social circle. Having said that, I don't know why the Lanarkshire rule came about, or what its purpose was. It may well fall into an area sanctioned by paragraph 2. I remember the last discussion as well Bruno lad and you did the the same the last time, tried to turn the meaning of the act on its head!! Are you seriously trying to suggest that if a long standing hard working member of Carluke club say, decided to join a SL fed club because he did not want to race his birds down the west coast route as was the case for the last few years, The club would be within their rights to expel him from the club and this did not constitute a restriction of his right to freedom of association under the act
me Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 vince is that what caused the break ? away back then If you are talking about the creation of the SL Fed, it was not an aggro thing really. Some of the SL Lanarkshire guys felt their birds were being dragged over the top(especially young birds) by the large numbers heading for central lanarkshire. There was no great falling out that I remember.
Guest bigda Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 nope, he just has given up his, right to comply fully with the club rules.
hotrod Posted March 9, 2009 Report Posted March 9, 2009 if it did get voted in, do you not think the srpc would be the losers in the long run, as a choice would have to be made sooner rather than latter with costs been the main thing i honestly think if it was passed the two would be back together in 2/3 years its not the snfc thats the problem its the shu thing , most of us will/can never go back to THEM no way.

When his L/F dues were sent in these were returned as CT1 is still a member of South Lanarkshire Fed. If he wished he could remain a non flying member of Carluke but Lanarkshire will NOT accept his pigeons for flying. On hearing this his comments were fukc Lanarkshire and fukc Carluke We the members of Carluke thought it wise to return his fees If a member of Carluke joined another fed THIS WOULD NOT TERMINATE HIS MEMBERSHIP OF CARLUKE as long as he/she paid there fees but they would not have there pigeons transported by Lanarkshire It was Carluke Flying Club that was awarded a grant not L/F Cheers Homer 49
