Would definitely agree with as early lib as possible to give all fair chance but we must give the race control team the time required to ensure best conditions for the birds and they like the rest of us do require sleep :emoticon-0157-sun:

i know what your saying,i see the west boys struggle to get aswell

im just saying theres sometimes a small window to get north birds

and birds usually slow the further they go

but there are always exceptions to the rule usually wind assisted

 

as i said earlier in the thread inland national birds have been liberated mid morning

i think it was 10.30 or 11.00 not 100% sure

making that a 2 day race for most of us

If everyone accepts the result of the voting on a race program with GOOD GRACE, then we can all concentrate on preparing our doos for the tasks ahead, that is after all why we Vote in the first place.

Like EVERY body else i have my opinions but Unlike some i will accept the result, get my head down and get on with it, just like i have done for YEARS now.

The majority vote isnae always my own idea of how things should be but i accept it, if we all start on about resigning or starting up other organisations because the vote goes against us we are Doomed as a sport, and that would be SHAME on us all.

Yer right, No Substitute for it, but common sense is often in short supply with some people that don't get their own way.

JOHN QUINN YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO SAY ABOUT NOT GETTING THERE OWN WAY ARE YOU FOR REAL LOOK BACK SNFC RESULTS AND SEE WHOES BEEN KICKED IN THE BA$$OCKS EVERY RACE UNLESS ITS A MID DAY LIBERATION you must have some imagination if you think this is being run for the good of the whole convoy ----- you would be the first to moan if you werent given a chance as the first drop in NATIONAL ALL BIRDS DONT GET CATERED FOR HAVE YOU READ THE SNFC OVERSEAS REPORT IF YOU HAVE AND YOU THINK ITS FOR THE GOOD OF ALL ( YOUR SOME SUBSTITUTE FOR A MAN

to help every one the races need to be looked at seriously

as far as land goes, Oslo could be the real race point for the longer races, and the west for the shorter races in the national

that way no one can control the national and there are no advantages to any member now the only one i see that could spit the dummy out would be the south easters, bigda as is, not often wrong, but i can see this offer making a few turn green. they will not stick there necks out, but i can assure you they are no wanting to give any advantage up. they say the have none but will not like to be forced into it. and on the grounds of a race being run

and not all participating in the open section tells you all the races they have had are unfair and on that note alone they must be an inquiry never mind what used to be its now that is the main issue,

and every fancier should have a chance of getting open pools, as well as section ones

yes mate we are very conscientious, about your plight, thats why we feel the races need to come from the west, and the east. to give you the chance you are entitled to of winning the national.

your chances are nearly imposable to achieve. unless the vel is under 900

Our club actually has some of its members in the East Section and some in the West.What are the other clubs like this that people know of??

 

Please note I'm not complaining,there has to be a boundary line somewhere it just so happens to be under a mile West from my house :emoticon-0136-giggle:

yes mate but should you vote for new racing west and east, you will have no handicap at all, check out every ones measurement and it is within striking distance. and the only ones to complain are the ones that have advantage over others, and it has got that bad that they do not need distance birds to compete, middle distance birds are now all that is needed in some areas, that is the sad fact of the matter, that the ones out side need a different type of bird just to get them home.

evolvement yes but the biggest part of the evolvement over the years has come about in the middle distance sprint racing

Talking about sections of the nationals I remember Rab Hamilton of cambus winning the east section averages in the early 90s and he was flying further west than some members in the west section. An outstanding performance
