Naw Bobby,

Yer wrong M8. The proper idea is all resolutions for change should be in writing and put on the agenda, as is done at Federation level. If there are unforseen circumstances at the time of the race then the comittee have the power to change the racepoint.. End Of....

Place for change is at the meeting Andy not on here you,ll have your chance next year at the Agm to put forward your views. As for now we,re left with what we have so will just have to make the best of it. The only plus side is we have people on the committee from this side of the country this year, and hope to persuade Eggy to go back on as well.

Agree with what is being said, there were so many racepoints put forward at the meeting a club mate remarked 'we need to bring an Atlas in future.' I also believe that the person who suggested Marlborough also stated that it did have the necessary facilities, otherwise it would never have been accepted as a Proposal.

 

If it proves to be unsuitable because of this, I'm sure the Management Committee will change it.

Not too sure if committee has power to change an Agm decision. I think another meeting would have to be called. Maybe should go back to the old way of having a race prog meeting but then again no one came to them either just moaned about the decisions all the same.

At the meeting the race point referred as used by the unc was rivenhall that lost out on the vote against Marlborough 44 against 39 ,sure you will find Marlborough is in wiltshire se of swindon and very near to our newbury racepoint we used to fly it would then have been direct on line for portsmouth which was defeated in favour of eastbourne by 49 votes to 42 ,hope this helps :emoticon-0157-sun:

 

Yep, spot-on, good job I take written notes because me memory is like a sieve nowadays; I'd noted on Agenda that Rivenhall was an UNC racepoint etc., then got it mixed up in my head with Marlborough.

if there are no facilities its no good end off story the welfare of the birds and convoyers must be paramount if there is a hold over the water wont last forever common sense must prevail and i agree you cant take someones word for it it should have been put in writing so it could be checked just because its on the rpra list dosent make it suitable have a look at newton aycliffe

Agree that its no good if the facilities are not right we,ll just have to wait n see what happens at the first committee meeting.

Newton Aycliffe no good its at Darlington not near required distance ,Marlborough has been passed at an AGM of SNFC members,no point in anyone posting racepoints any changes would have to be made by theSNFC with the backing of its members if not why have a AGM

didnt mean it as a national racepoint its on the rpra list as a racepoint as is malborough but is far from suitable looks to me thats the only homework that was done i give up

we had the same problem in lanarkshire fed few season back folk shouting out race points and passed

only to find out they were unsuitable for a heavy goods lorry

 

so the management of the fed had to call a delegate meeting to change the race points to more suitable

Think the Midland fed have the correct approach with very flexible programme regarding sites and weather patterns :emoticon-0157-sun: common sense prevails.

The homework was done by a man who has been a race controller for many years, who has regular contact with convoyers and race controllers who have used this site on a regular basis.

What a load of panic and tripe about Marlborough.

 

Have raced there for years with no problems, 100% returns last season

 

If it's good enough for the Cumbrian boys it's good enough for me

 

why no just join the rpra then unc or such like

you seem to be able to fly in a few feds.and nationals

the race point smells as if it has come from the boys from Cumbria a cert in was never sugested from the boys from the west.

Danny, everybody in scotland can choose tae race in two nats mate!!!! ONE IS GREAT the other not so!!!!We can race in two feds doon here cos we have an anglo fed and a premier club (which I am no in). This allows good racin and the choice of routes which is very important. This is an advantage but is up to the member that qualifies and best o luck! This is the same in the Borders with the UNC but the result is not the domination by these members!!!!

did they no change the dunddy clock setter

no change on the

nationals wealth again for another year

then . hope they can get one that can move the big hand of the clock back an hour when the get to France, and help the lads in the north out. wouldn't want any of the committee in the next war

as they wouldn't send a plane if there was fog in the channel especially when the birds are 3-4 hours away from the channel before they are libed
