i would feel sorry for the owner and the birds ,,,of any organisation , really a rotten thing to happen , lets hope its rectified , and he keeps his positions , after all its not really fair on the rest of the positions,,off course hell have the right of appeal , but could be a simple mistake,, so i think waiting on the proper outcome will give you the answer

nice and simple his clock was checked outside the 23hr rule and ken withdrew them the third bird was inside the rule another stupid 100 year old rule that needs to be changed in my mind good birds good fancier stupid rule but rules are rules

[jimmy_bulger]

IN A WORD "BOLLICKS"

COMMON SENSE SHOULD PREFAILE .

[NANCYVIEWLOFTS]

yes i agree it was a rule introduced when only toulet clocks and other makes were used so if you went over the 23 hours you could not tell which day you had clocked    now the date is printed but unfortunatly puncture clocks are still in use so maybe the rule should be change to accomodate for these clocks

[Chris Little]

Ken's birds from Tours were not disqualified  

[elanco]

So its a lot of crap then Chris ?

[Guest TAMMY_1]

So its a lot of crap then Chris ?

 

think frankdoomans post above said that ken withdrew his birds, so technically dunno if that means they were not disqualified

[Guest]

think it is rediculous pigeons flying all that way winning major prizes then through some pre historic rule it changes everything ,but still good on ken in withdrawing them thats sportsmanship and its only  a matter of time before one of them nationalss are won in hamilton ,good on you ken ;D ;D ;D

[Chris Little]

The race concerned wasn't Tours, the matter has been dealt with accordinly and is now closed, end off

[elanco]

: :X

[Guest]

Chris as it is 'end of', perhaps you'd explain end of what exactly.......cause your post makes you out to be the enforcer.....and by implication that something untoward had happened??

[Guest]

Agree with sentiments, wouldn't like to see these birds lose their positions in this way. Also wondered as clock meeting is usually scheduled e.g. Club A, 8 till 1000 ,, how could this happen?

[Guest]

:Pdont think it has got anything to do with anyone on here what happens or happend thats down to ken buchanan and the club he flies in

[elanco]

yes, but if other clubs can learn a lesson from this is it not better to get it out in the open?

[Guest]

Sammy, its of interest, we can all learn if a procedure needs changing?

[johno]

the committe had only to decide whether or not to accept ken buchanans proposal to withdraw his birds. the committe decided to accept. an objection was lodged based on the 23 hour rule. to avoid debate and further discussion ken buchanan in a gentlemanly fashion put forward the proposal that he would withdraw his birds. this was accepted. as chris says done and dusted.
