maverick Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delboy Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennybhoy Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 Well what they doing then or is it secretThey'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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverick Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 That goes without saying, but im saying the national will lose birdage Not having a go del but pigeon men will be pigeon men and will send don't think birdage would be affected that much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delboy Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 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. Not having a go del but pigeon men will be pigeon men and will send don't think birdage would be affected that much Can only go on my own loft Mav, if its postponed ill only have half the numbers .

Delboy Posted July 1, 2015 Report Share Posted July 1, 2015 me to m8 but if we cant get to ypres surely we cant get to ancenis 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
