ALF Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 I take it every club in our fed received a letter about changing the route for y/b's back to the east of the country.What are the Lanarkshire members thoughts on this? I for 1 would welcome the route to be changed back to the east side of the country and over 50% of my club members think the same as they all signed the form tonight to call a special meeting for same!
frank-123 Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 90% of our club member's signed the letter to call an egm to change route back to the east for ybs
ALF Posted May 30, 2008 Author Report Posted May 30, 2008 Over 50% of ours signed it Bart but not everyone was there after basketing so will see the rest at clock run off time tommorrow
Whats it called Cumbernauld Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 Why not go down whatever coast offers the best weather each week. Seems to me its all chop and change anyway East coast man myself right enough Happy days Rab Smith
harky Posted May 30, 2008 Report Posted May 30, 2008 east or west it does not matter you still have got to have the pigeons to do the job .I for one could not care less keep the race points the same as agreed for this season anyway . :) :)

Delboy Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 A very wise move by the Lanarkshire fed, although the obs havent been totally disasterous, the ybs would be a different story.GUARANTEED
harky Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 A very wise move by the Lanarkshire fed, although the obs havent been totally disasterous, the ybs would be a different story.GUARANTEED Young bird races down the east have not been to great in recent seasons either. I think we should stick to the current race programme and then make a decision for next season ,its all about trial and earor and unless we try we will never know.
frank-123 Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 harky got to disagreee with your thoughts if old birds are stuggling to come this route what chance has ybs last year down the east route i had great returns with my ybs

Novice Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Why not go down whatever coast offers the best weather each week. Seems to me its all chop and change anyway East coast man myself right enough Happy days Rab Smith The suggestion to go to whatever coast offers the best weather is, in my opinion, one of the most logical I have heard. It wouldn't cost a penny as we are already measured for most race points anyway.

It wouldn't cost a penny as we are already measured for most race points anyway. that would be great if you could guarantee the weather at each site on a specific day , but how can you go to one side of the country and if the weather turns out bad then do you rush the birds across country to another site, good idea in theory but totally unfeasible

Within reason there are weekends when it will not be possible to to liberate in certain areas. Under these conditions we need to look at alternative sites. It wasn't my suggestion but perhaps a bit too progressive for pigeon fanciers.

frank-123 Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 novice weather is great both side's today what route would you go east or west
Whats it called Cumbernauld Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Many a Friday night pigeons are put in baskets knowing full well there will be no race in the morning. Seems to me it would increase your chances of a race by 50%.At least we would have an option. Most races are held over before lunch time Saturday,so whats to stop them changing coasts and going to better weather for a Sunday morning Libiration. The simple answers are very often the best,however they are rejected to easy, because they are simple. Lets here your thoughts please. Rab Smith
ALF Posted May 31, 2008 Author Report Posted May 31, 2008 none of the members in our club signed it , I might be the only one :( Well thats funny as i thought you were the only person in your club who votedfor our pigeons to go the west route!!!! : : : :
Guest TAMMY_1 Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 Well thats funny as i thought you were the only person in your club who votedfor our pigeons to go the west route!!!! : : : : WELL YOU ARE WRONG AGAIN BECAUSE THEY ALL VOTED TO DOWN THE WEST ROUTE
ALF Posted May 31, 2008 Author Report Posted May 31, 2008 WELL YOU ARE WRONG AGAIN BECAUSE THEY ALL VOTED TO DOWN THE WEST ROUTE funny that is because you told me on the phone today that 1 of your members never votes and just accepts what is voted for : : : :
Guest TAMMY_1 Posted May 31, 2008 Report Posted May 31, 2008 funny that is because you told me on the phone today that 1 of your members never votes and just accepts what is voted for : : : : EVERYONE THAT ATTENDED THE RACE PROGRAMME MEETING VOTED TO GO DOWN THE WEST, THE ONE THAT NEVER VOTES WAS NOT THERE IF THATS A BETTER EXPLANATION
