all pigeon raceing is today is money know sport just money

Mate I am no longer a member of MNFC but as I am just 10 mile north of you I should be, but for me it aint even a good program with just 1 race over 500 mile and if they go to Saintes that's only 480. I think they went wrong with the bird flu, and have had to cater for the sprint / middle distance just to pay for the new transport. Doesn't seem to be all inclusive any more.

Please, please, just where are we here!? Does one really expect that such concerns acyually care, let alone cater for the grass roots, the working fancier!?

Get real, if one thing I've leant, - the biggest Cancer in our sport - is that these , and from many feds upwards, are only interested in 'Names, Cleques, and their own mob. The vast majority live a dream, stutter wth a Wing and a Prayer.

So just why does any one really think that their uncaring, selfish attitudes will be any different! Gosh, they'll have fairer sections, more sensible Marking Stations, even allow the grass roots to help finiance their own club via buying their rings etc etc.

You want the list?  Why do most feds cater and send far more birds weekly that the sparodic Nationals, and thats not count the like of the might UNC!

Why is it that at least 90% don't even bother to join the likes of the MNFC, the NFC, the NRCC! Oh of course, it is because the bend over backwards to help, and be sensible and fair SHOULD we say CARE for their' members!!! Nah1 out side of taking your money to finaice the coffers of their more 'Affluent / Positioned clique they prove every meeting that don't goive a sh** about us. So pardon me while I rush out and  send another juicy cheque to them.

Clubs I'm in want to use them as the club  channel races Full stop.

So I stick to the harder, and more meriteous North Rd for my honours and not pay them a jot! Yes will send a few each week South to help the club, and tune them up for the North Rd.

But supply my hard earnt dosh to inconsiderate selfish ...... I will not.

they are, have beeen and will continue to be the single biggest factor of why so many have left this sport, and will continue to be so!

Too much money for me. I am in BBC and BICC, and BBC aint going Palamos so I will only send to Lamballe young bird. Old fashioned wicker baskets served me well last year.

 

Hiya, are you saying that if the baskets aren't wicker you won't send? It would be sad not to send when all are going to Barcelona this year. It's a bit early for me in my long distance career but I'm hoping to send 1!!

Yes Albear, that is the only reason I would rejoin a national club. Even then then can't agree to say costs and go together. Could have it in turns to transport all the birds, or just take out the acyual costs and split what is left. Better still, as an incentive, and a boon to Distance racing and for benefit of members, ransport just for costs. This would mean a lot more able to afford, and many more actually sending.

Merit / Acheivement, and above all the actual members benefitting.

No more of the crap scenario 'Well we lose money sending to ...' crap!

Not at all. What I mean is MNFC sank deep in to debt to buy new transporter with alloy crates with too little fore thought as did NFC. They've also gone for loads of middle distance races to get the money in. My birds have been north in wooden crates, south in alloy and also in baskets. Wicker baskets are out of fashion but my birds flew Palamos 751 mile and my young birds went to Lamballe 280 mile, last year. I've been happy with all sorts. Tiz money and MNFC that's the problem. I only have one over 1 year old so not going Barclona.
