How Long Have We Got Left

[just ask me]

really think in clubs there should be some sort of leagues started up not fair a new starter comes in and is expected to win against hardent flyers they lose interest fast jmo

imo one of the biggest killers in the sport is 'pigeon politics'

 

loads of fanciers in recent years have either left the sport, been suspended or simply been forced out the doo's because of politics... usually over very trivial matters but unfortunately these matters are usually blown way out of proportion and are seen as an opportunity to 'plunge the knife and give it a good old twist'... some fanciers canna be bothered with it all and chuck in the towel, however there are a small percentage that will 'fight back to the death' and not be walked all over by these opportunists!!! very sad but true, how things cannot be sorted out the old fashioned way...

Would tend to agree with you Wul, to many men take positions on then can't take criticism when they do, so try to use non existent rules or interpretations of the rules to get back at their critics, i Despise this type of behaviour and those who would behave like it.

I could rhyme off things that have happened to me in the last ten years, that makes what any Pigeon Critic could say about me fade to insignificance, problem is not all officials think as i do.
