ave not heard of any where in the midland fed that the dues are to go up in price it was set four years ago that the fed dues go up one pound every year also our club chapelhall is 32 pence per bird for birdage and am sure that the birdage for this year wont be going up also the snfc race program was voted in by the members of the fed also snfc races birdage wise did you pay for birdage in the snfc or as a club fed race theres

Martin I am not going to explain how to read a balance sheet to you however their is a guaranteed shortfall in income for 2014 of at least two thousand eight hundred and twenty pounds which is rising with every member that leaves the Fed. As you are in Chapelhall please ask George Truesdale where the money is going to come from and disregard any answer that includes Fauldhouse because they are allegedly looking elsewhere for transportation thanks to those running the Midland. Perhaps it would be wise to talk to your members and let them realise that this is not a game but hard facts and we who are left will have to dig deep into our pockets to survive. Their is a solution which I and others are working on but unfortunately our present Officials will I fear be determined to block it. I will say no more on the subject other than the members wishing to remain in the Midland Federation to have faith.
