Guest malonebros Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 i spoke to russell earlier about it. without being funny i dont see why the people that have lost out this yr should go against anybody next yr who did not have birds in the final? am i wrong to think that?

ChrisMaidment08 Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 tenny how many in that race Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest malonebros Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 maybe even put all the 1100 odd missing birds ring numbers in a hat and do a lottery system to pick the remaining 52 prizes? or have a seperate race for only the people in from this yr? just a couple of ideas but then again im not the commitee.

Guest Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 the race has now been closed at 220yds according to rpra rules. the remaining £12,600 from the remaining 52 cash prizes will be decided upon in a meeting of the commitee soon. Hi you seem to have some 'inside' knowledge. Are you on the committee? Who is, do you know? Who told you they are meeting soon? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 If not enough birds are home to take the prizes then the remaining prizes should be split with the birds that are home this is the norm in all races. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sorry I'm not having a laugh (later in this post); you posted information and I wonderd where it came from. A 'committee' is news to me, I thought this was a private concern financed by Mr Nicolls. Sorry for my ignorance I didn't see the committee meetings in the TV documentary. I like to check out statements that seem in conflict with what I thought was the case, that's all. So you'll forgive my ignorance further, who is Russell? I know he's at Europa according to your post but he might have only moved in recently now there's more room ( sorry stupid humour) is he in a position of authority? Even a committee member perchance?

ChrisMaidment08 Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Doesnt the open race rules state what happens to any unwon prize money would thought anything like that should be put up before and go in the rules :-/ what rules ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
