Delboy Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 The very best of luck to all competitors in the Gold Cup / Gold Medal races, these are the most prestigious of the pigeon calendar.[ IMO ]. Hope to send 2, perhaps 3. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delboy Posted June 20, 2016 Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 A big thing that detracts from the big national is marking the birds on a Tuesday , when the wee national can go to the same race point marking a day later???? It does my head in as its complete logistic nonsense I ALSO THINK WE SHOULD BE CONVOYED BY AN INDEPENDANT ENGLISH HAULIER LIKE WE USED TO AS THIS WOULD STOP ALL THE SPECULATION WE HAVE HAD SINCE THE GIBBO DAYS and bring the once envied, brilliant reputation back to the SNFC.
