Guest IB Posted September 13, 2011 Report Posted September 13, 2011 Frank, the Council boundaries are no more scientifically thought out or fairer than existing SNFC Sections. Parts of the same street can be in different Council Areas. And the boundaries do change. Post Code is also a laugh - it does 'exactly what it says on the envelope' a code that includes the delivery post office, and a numbered circle of zones with that post office at the centre. Yes I think Sections must be mapped, but based on longitude and latitude. That never changes, and is the basis for club / fed boundaries just now.

Ian council boundaries can change but like lanarkshire fed our boundary it was made in 1972 I thought the boundary commission would have thought up the scottish council area's. So guys who have been trained and who's job it is would need to put a lot more thought into it than a few doo men meeting at an agmsame street in two council area's maybe so but it is not across the road i would imagine a long street may divided

frank-123 Posted September 14, 2011 Author Report Posted September 14, 2011 how many doo men in the highlands council area ? just checked 49 lofts in 2010 wonder how many are members of the snfc
DJWa Posted September 14, 2011 Report Posted September 14, 2011 how many doo men in the highlands council area ? not sure as to what that area covers frankbut would hazzard a guess at about 280/300 fanciers north of stonehavenif there was a highland sec you may see some of the boys further north having a gobut remember these boys would be flying well over 400 miles for the ybnat the moment they would be flying against boys over 100 miles south of them in section g and have virtually no chance of a ticketmy point is that some of the southern sec lads are complaining of being in the same sec as someone 5,10,15,20 miles N,S,E,or WEST of themtry being 50 to 100+ miles and in the same sectionsections should be set on area covered not how many fanciers are in it
frank-123 Posted September 14, 2011 Author Report Posted September 14, 2011 Area 7 is just laughable , rather than state it is laughable tell us what you think would be better or stay the same

Rooster J. Cogburn Posted September 14, 2011 Report Posted September 14, 2011 If these sections were passed people would still complain.If it wasnae Denny and Camelon that were getting the criticism it would just be somehwere else-Greengairs,Coatbridge etc.Regardless of Section boundary 90% of the folk in it will be in a worst position than somebody else-Just get on with Why do we no all just have our own Sections??yours can be called Frank's Section,mines can be Lewis'Section,Novos can be Derek's section and we would all win our Section every week As fer ma section instead of losing sleep about the boundary we'd be better trying to catch John McNeill
