peter pandy Posted April 25, 2015 Report Posted April 25, 2015 Why do we look at weather forecasts when they are mostly useless. Over the past couple of seasons we have had basketing put back 24 hrs due to an adverse report which has always proved wrong with good racing ensuing for those that ignored them. In my day it was Friday basketing regardless and yes we had the odd holdover but to my mind it was good basket training for longer races. I often wonder if the present set up affects National pigeons which in all probability have never spent more than 18 hrs in a basket when faced with 3 days in a basket.
ALF Posted April 25, 2015 Report Posted April 25, 2015 Get a grip o yersel man..... Today most feds are in complete control of there races unlike years ago when the lorry's taking us to the races were in control.....
