whiteflight Posted June 7, 2006 Report Posted June 7, 2006 Who would you rate as the best fancier in your local area ?
frank-123 Posted June 7, 2006 Report Posted June 7, 2006 george rankin/ jim hannah hard to choose between both they score regular in club and national racing into the west of scotland my opinion only
lordcornwallis Posted June 7, 2006 Report Posted June 7, 2006 west of scotland best pigeon racers morris brothers. willie glass, alex scott ,mr mckinley of largs and harvey pollock. best fancier well in my opinion theres no bad fanciers or very few nowadays so i think 99 percent of the fancy are good fanciers , but bear in mind theres no such thing as a even ball park in pigeon racing and you have to use the hand your dealt. lc 5

Guest TAMMY_1 Posted June 8, 2006 Report Posted June 8, 2006 G.MacALONEY & SON IN LANARKSHIRE FED IN THE NATIONAL WEST OF SCOTLAND RANKIN & HANNAH & CULLEN & CAMERON I DON'T THINK I WOULD HAVE INCLUDED CULLEN IN THIS CATEGORY WINGS AS HE HAS ONLY HAD A FEW GOOD RESULTS LAST YEAR AND NOT A LOT IN YEARS BEFORE.

We obtained a pair from them 2 years ago and they have made their mark in the breeding shed. Best fancier in our area ...... Ralston Graham
