DO YOU THINK THE EAST COST CLUB WILL LET MEMBERS OF THE MIDLANDS FED FLY WITH THEM FROM THE EAST OR WILL THIS BE TO MUCH OVER FLY FOR THEM

Posted

That be very much up to them.The reason we use velocity is in order to include the distances of each loft in the calculation of yards per min.

 

IN national races this will be 100 of miles in difference. In Scotland we all know Annan does well in these races,however they are not unbeatable as history will show you. thus it is not just fanciers from that area that compete

 

In shorter races this is courses of greater importance as is the provaling wind direction. it maybe worth arguing that not to include wind direction and wind speed in calculating the result may be wrong.

 

You may then conclue from this, and agree or disagree not always the best performance wins the race

 

Taking all this into account, we should be of mind to race against all comers. The wind direction and its strengths will change as will the results. Sure we can think of birds that was off the result, but when you examine its performance thats what tells the true story.

 

A good example of this maybe if you could choce a pigeon from the first 50 in a national we would very often not necessarily pick the winner ? yeah

Apart from historical reasons why are feds not more in line with local gov regions. How many lofts for instance in the Midland fed, are geographically in North or south Lanarkshire. Talk of secret meetings on breakaway feds on one hand, and arguments about east or west on the other.

 

surley we would be better securing our sport for many years to come, by whole sale amalgamation.

 

This fed could be broken into sections and clubs as appropriate.Get away from perocial inward thinking and embrace our fellow fanciers fron just along the road any support for this or is it to late?

im afraid amalgamation is a no no with current trends,fanciers seem all too happy to form smaller feds with the first signs of any probs,maybe with lanarkshire and midland going the same route starting in the dreaded solway we could join up sharing the costs?

going with glasgow then i think they join south lanarkshire for the remainder of the programme

i dont know what route to fly but there my birds and i can go with whoever i like or even not race but the choice will be mine

i agree with you bart. the race prog meeting had a vote if the members dont want to go west they should have went to the meeting.its the same at national level .should be all together.thats how i see it

Whats the club called.is it the east coast big girls club.or www.shitscaredclub.com.talk about unity no chance

Like the tone of the shitscaredclub.com mate,and then the possibillity of the cantflythechannel.com.But then again in the current climate of running down other peoples organisations maybee this is relevant.

Posted
dont understand all the in fighting going on.why not agree to disagree and get on with doing what we keep the birds for.race them against as many as poss

 

Totally agree mate scotland needs to be united no infighting no petty politcal devides but its unfortunate that some cant rise to this.Its our great sport that will suffer at the end of the day,and unfortunatly some individuals dont seem to appreciate this.And it must be time to stop running down others organisations its getting out of hand.
