If Del wisny wanting in the who did or were we just moving boundaries for no reason?

[Big Davie]

After 191 posts on this thread i hadn't commentated until now, mainly due to the fact that this is a Lanarkshire federation issue for the members to decide at the AGM, (now over), though not please with the outcome i am happy to look forward to competing against my fellow Lanarkshire members in 2015. Though i must say that it is pretty sad, there fanciers outwith Lanarkshire from a totally different region who were happy to come on here and stir trouble with negative comments. Amazing how some fanciers get there kicks.

 

Black line was the proposed new boundary (this would have included all Lanarkshire fanciers who are presently outside the boundary)

Red line was the old (approx) boundary

 

Black line to the north is the Campsie hills, after these hills there are no other fanciers.

You should have produced your map in colour for this proposal ( minus the blue arrows ) and including the existing existing boundary with the red line which would have detailed how minor the changes were that you were after, fairly sure you would have got more support if you had done this.

Just trying to tidy it up from a squiggly line to a straight line boundary by grid reference which is far more positive and accurate than the existing boundary

expletive remove, dont ye know the reason the fed was getting tidied up ( moving boundaries )?

[geordie1234]

No del why?

[Delboy]

ask one of your officials

As I said in an earlier post, for me if this proposal had been accepted It would not have made any difference to the west section but whilst we are on this subject you should have a look at a west section club where you are a member who have a member whose loft is located in the centre section who is competing for west section prizes !!!

 

As you say a spade is a spade.

well davy the man that diznae bother bout section prizes this seems tae be upsetting you big man

Tommy

As Del is a member of LSC then he is entitled to send his birds with Lanarkshire fed through a club but as he is outside the fed boundary then he can only compete for LSC prizes and can't compete for Fed prizes, so his birds are already on the transporter if he wishes to send them, this applies to other guys as well and not only Del. This arrangement has been in place for LSC members who are not fed members for as long as I can remember .

 

With regards fining clubs the only problem with lack of room on the transporters is at race 2 and 3 where it was explained that their were many baskets that were not full ( 28 birds ) on the unit last year at race 3 which resulted in the officials having to hire another unit at short notice, my view is that for these two races it is not unreasonable for the fed to ask its member clubs to ensure that each full basket at these races contains 28 birds and that if needed their should only be a max of two short baskets at any club on a Friday night which would allow birds to be moved around at Uddingston to fill up short baskets, this has also been done for as long as I have been involved in racing pigeons if required which in my opinion is not a problem for old birds.

 

I understand that as some clubs now own their own baskets then they may not agree with this but again the race is run and organised by Lanarkshire Fed and the baskets travel to the race point on the Lanarkshire transporters so as the race organisers they are or should be in a position to call the shots and if required fine persistent offenders, although I do agree £50 is excessive.

 

You should also consider that outwith races 2 and 3 that Lanarkshire allow clubs , if they want, need only have 22 birds in a crate, however many clubs if they have short crates once all the birds are race marked will fill them up to the max to save a tenner for any short crates.

 

Going back to the boundary, it was only proposed to extend it north by approx 3 miles to bring in guys whose birds are already on the transporter so for me I would have accepted it because at the rate the sport is losing members then in five years from now ( or less ) room on any organisations transporter will not be a problem in fact it will be the opposite as costs will spiral due to not being able to fill them.

 

JMHO

well davy i will be putting a proposal in next year that only fed members are transported on our fed trucks

[tommy bhoys]

No del why?

imo george it was a underhand way tae get del into the fed by gareth

[tommy bhoys]

Tommy, don't be a t it. You couldny be further fae the truth. Ask yer officials about yer fed boundaries expletive remove.Think about it, if yer new boundaries passed around 40 or 50 fanciers could join yer fed and yet the only name that's mentioned is mine. Ye are all f kin mental and need to think WHY YER FED NEEDS OPENED?? instead of listening to internet trolls filling yer heed full of sh it.

[frank-123]

Bargain of the year. That was so funny after the pads were making more than a system and a pad.

[tommy bhoys]

Taxi for Tommy.

very orginal frank

[frank-123]

Lol .

[geordie1234]

I never went to the meeting bt they way the proposal was portrayed is completely diff from what Gareths map suggests bt someone did mention it would open up for 40-50 fanciers joining which at this stage I'm no sure Lanarkshire could accommodate that.... bt as I said I wasn't at the meeting

[tommy bhoys]

This isn't bothering me one bit as I was in favour of the new proposed boundary, all I'm saying is people in glass houses shouldn't through stones when talking about fed west section prizes

[Delboy]

He was embarrassed for yer fed Tommy, he actually tried to save yer fed a red face. As I said, do yer homework first before assuming stuff

[peter pandy]
