Ypres

[maverick]

I think their should be a race from the coast, common sense says to put it back a week will lose half the convoy as nest condition wont suit.expletive remove not rocket science

 

If you think your birds are not in the condition you want you don't have to send them

That goes without saying, but im saying the national will lose birdage

[dal2]

Maybe gan next week eh?

[Kennybhoy]

Well what they doing then or is it secret

They'll have to come up with something quick as Lanarkshire fed is having their emergency meeting tonight and will probably come up something for this week which will in turn affect the birdage,the reason I joint the national this year is I'm a novice in this sport(2nd ob season)and would have liked to have had a go with the national from Ypres but that's now looking very unlikely

Not having a go del but pigeon men will be pigeon men and will send don't think birdage would be affected that much

[Delboy]

im quite surprised no one is voicing their preference so the snfc committee can take it on board before making a judgement. This isn't a witch hunt or criticism for the SNFC, its constructive debating on what its members want at a critical time.

Can only go on my own loft Mav, if its postponed ill only have half the numbers .

[seaforth]

As in the past surely a coastal race is a no brainier!! Every thing is set for race marking tomorrow night and as elsewhere on this thread federations who are joint convoying are possibly making there own race,canny see the problem and think we should have a race,Buckingham,Eastbourne Maidstone etc

[geordie1234]

I found out hour ago. When were the accenis birds marked? Is there many folk set their birds for 400 mile and then put them in at 600?

[walterboswell59]

News on website soon

 

, to let you all know that Ypres is currently postponed. This is due to the industrial action at the french ferry ports. No boats are available to cross the channel.

Wattie, different crossing m8, Ancenis cross at Portsmouth. We couldve went to Carentan instead of Ypres with the same crossing , but that's another option.

[moscow master]

Should be going to Portsmouth its on the program and is the furthest inland race this year and everyone has measurements as well I've no interest in going to Eastbourne or the likes over in the east side back to Portsmouth it central for all

[Paul Mac 31]

Lets be honest here ,, everyone and their granny knew this was the case with these on going strikes,, surely like any other business or Racing outfit their was another plan in place,, their ability to get info out to THEIR members is nothing short of embarrassing ..

[dal2]

i would have stevie

What would ye do next week when they gan to ypres?

[gulkie]

Now we will see how good the snfc top brass are

Think we already know ,just jumping in an posponing the race

[walterboswell59]

[walterboswell59]

What would ye do next week when they gan to ypres?
