micko this is terrible ,but just to show the presses/general publics ignorance of the birds and sport theyve put a picture of a wood pigeon next to the story , regarding the thread just before this ,chris this is what you should do with 9 yb strays that the owners dont want or cant be arsed collecting...........pete

Cowards that can't take their grievance out with the man themselves, resorting to murdering defenceless pigeons, with no thought whatsoever about the consequences and devistation it may cause, seems that this behaviour is widespread, same thing happened to a PB member  'Boomerang' only five miles away from us

I unfortunatley know how this guy feels, as dovescot said it happened to me, its hard but i kept on going due to all the support i had from fanciers all over. The fortunate thing for me is that i am moving house in 2 weeks, so i,m getting out the area. May be harder if i was staying put. I,m sure we will all help this poor guy out and help him whatever his decision, all the best, Boomerang aka alex wight kennoway fife.

I hope they discover who did this! the poor Owner must be devastated.

Unfortunately even if they do the Law probably won't hand out adequate punishment.

It breaks your heart to think of the fear and suffering the poor Doos went through.

Absolutely shocking.  Beggers belief :-(

 

I've contacted the BBC to ask why a story about racing pigeons is accompanied by a pic of a wood pigeon.  It's like having an article about a golden retriever accompanied by a picture of a poodle!!

Good one David.

 

I can't believe how many times I've read about this happening recently.  Could these scum really be fanciers? Certainly they have no love for pigeons or they would  release all the birds before firing the loft. :'(

bad news heart breaking to say the least to lose one loft be hard enough to continue , but 6 or 7 , too much of this going on breaking in to lofts and burning them down , i think only way to prevent this from happening , is to get a caravan on each allotment and take in turns to keep allotments secure. These scum bags want stringing up , i wish the fancier well , and i hope some of the big loft builders make a kind gesture to him or the fanciers nearby rally round for this guy. i.e a few bird sales ectra , think Blackers money should be used when this happens.

I'll second that! Having been the victim of many things, the worst being burned out in September 2006, i echo these sentiments greatly. Any fancier found guilty of committing such travesties should be finished altogether, no way back. I wish these unfortunate people in Ireland all the best and hope they get back on their feet quickly.
