Well done all.

 

Can confirm it was chucking it down here in Central Scotland + blustery wind, from around 3pm.

 

Gallant birds one & all to have beaten the weather front home, or come through it.

Looks like it was not a good race lot of birds missing .

 

PENDER,

           I PRESUME FROM THE POST ITS BIRDS MISSING FROM THE LANARKSHIRE AREA COS THE RETURNS ARE GREAT FROM EDINBURGH, CENTRAL AND NORTH WEST AREAS. IF I CAN SUGGEST THE REASON FOR THIS ITS COS YOUR BIRDS HAVENT BEEN FAR ENOUGH LEADING UP TO THE NATIONAL. THE SAME THING HAPPENED LAST YEAR ALSO FROM CHELTENHAM. GRANTED SOME OF YOU HAD AN OPEN RACE FROM WAKEFIELD WITH THE N/WEST FED, BUT EVEN AT THAT YOUR MEMBERS WERE 1TO 11/2 HOURS BEHIND THE WEST OF THE CENTRAL & N/WEST FEDS. ITS ALL ABOUT PIGEONS BEING OVER THE COURSE AND YOUNGSTERS NEED TO BE KEPT GOING EACH WEEK TO PARTICIPATE. WE IN PENTLAND FED HAVE BEEN AT 220 MILES TWICE THIS YEAR ALREADY. IM AFRAID KELSO & OTTERBURN ISNT GOOD ENOUGH EVERY WEEK. IM SURE THE MAJORITY OF YOUR MEMBERS ALREADY KNOW THIS BUT FOR THE ONES THAT DONT, TAKE NOTE OR NEXT YEAR WILL BE THE SAME IF YOU DONT CHANGE..... ALL THE BEST WITH YOUR FORTHCOMING MEETING...ANDY M...

ANDY I THINK YOU ARE BEING A BIT DISRESPECTFUL WITH YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT 1 TO 1 1/2 HOURS   AS IF YOU LOOK AT THE SNFC RESULTS YOU WILL SEE  THAT THE WEST OF SCOTLAND HAVE A FAR HARDER TIME OF IT THAN THE EAST COAST FLYERS IN THE SNFC WE IN THE WEST FLY FOR OR SECTION AND IF IT IS A HARD RACE WE HAVE GOT A CHANCE OF BEING WELL IN AS SOME OF THE BEST LONG DISTENC FLYER LIVE IN THE WEST AND IF THEY MOVED OVER TO THE EAST I HAVE NO DOUBT THEY WOULD WIN MORE THAN THERE FAR SHARE OF THE PRIZES

WINGS,

          DISRESPECT WAS NOT INTENDED. I WAS TALKING OF THE 1 TO 1 1/2 HOURS FOR THE UDDINGSTON OPEN RACE WITH THE CENTRAL & N/WEST FEDS NOT THE SNFC. ITS FACT THAT THERE WAS FEW PIGEONS HOME ON THAT DAY IN QUESTION AND A COUPLE OF MILES FROM YOUR FED BOUNDARY THEY TUMBLED IN. YET AGAIN I STATE MY FACT & RE-READ MY ORIGINAL POST THAT YOUR PIGEONS ARE NOT GETTING THE REQUIRED FLYING TIME TO KEEP UP WITH THE WINNERS. FACT NOT FICTION. YOUR PRO TAMMY HAS BEEN TALKING ABOUT I QUOTE "ANOTHER KELSO" ALL SEASON........

Yes wings you are right, most of these people forget it lot harder race flying in to here than any other part of scotland the west i meen, you just need to look at the dif in the vel from the east to the west, *expletive removed* you could get a paper bag to fly in to there area.

Posted

well il reply for you, 4 members from the east took 33 post between them from 170 possible post, they sent  171 birds between them. you try and do that from the west my boys .

Posted

Know one is arguing that there not good pigeon men because they are good flyers i take my hat of to anyone who can fly a good bird. but there is big dif from flying in to the east than there is in to the west that is all i arguing about. not who is the best.  exp young bird racing.
