Racing Costs At Fed And Club Level

[hotrod]

Glasgow fed pays £100 up front,this helps secure the race program. The flip side of this however is if you lose most of your pigeons early, there is very few go to last races.Small conveyors are the cause of most of our troubles. (or at least it does not help)

 

I for one think there is safety in numbers. two /three hundred pigeons liberated over the border, is asking for it,and Glasgow, certainly got it, over the last couple years.

 

Unsure what the plan is for next reason but they will hopefully look at all possibilities, in order to improve the situation.

rab the £100 doesnt cover the longer races ( around 9 old bird races and 6 youngbird races thats 15 races for under £7 per week and u ca race as many as u like brilliant unless u only have a very small team ) ,as for the 2 or 3 hundred birds being libbed just over the border what race please ? if its the young birds this year ,this was the same weekend as every fed in the area got a hammering ,so it doesnt matter hwo big the birdage if yer going to get it then u get it im affraid . bigger birdage bigger losses .
