tommy money nothing to do with it, you can afford it, think of the credit winning with the snfc at the coast,

if it was me and i topped the fed at the coast, i would be gutted that i was not at the snfc with it,

over the years our fed had coast races, and i never went with them, everyone of my pigeons went with the snfc, but again thats me,

still every one tae there own david the snfc was a big club but not noo in my eyes to many scandles in the last few years but the wee lanarkshire is doing ok in my eyes :emoticon-0136-giggle:

[gulkie]

best of luck tommy anyway

[stevie]

Snfc races should be for over the water

[tommy bhoys]

best of luck tommy anyway

aye same tae you david hope yer second

[Cooheed]

nationals should be across water some fed races are more doos than nationals as hotrod said if you dont support the fed it would soon fold then whos transport would the national use , they would need to spend money then best of luck to everyone no matter where or who they send with

[dms5686]

Snfc races should be for over the water

Agree totally

[moscow master]

how many you got goin Ricky?

I'll muster up 4 Baz scraping the barrel but I'll get yin wither it walks it or no is a different story 😂😂

[blucock]

Properly disagree Nationals should be over the water only - every major pigeon racing country in the world has short and middle distance nationals for me you can have a national regardless almost of distance - why no have it with shortest lofts doing 200 mile? In the end we are a declining membership and in the current climate with returns especially to the west side of the country if nationals were only over the water you'd be lucky to scrape a decent sized fed birdage at some of them

 

The inland nationals were a step forward in Scottish racing - that's just my opinion I think it helps the future of the sport. I think there is as much kudos beating 4-5000 doos at 300 mile than 1800 at 450

 

There will always be a thrill at the proper "distance" especially the blue riband and channel - the future is including more folk to encourage national racing and the inland races help that

[VMS]

First race for me should be Ypres and leave the inland races to the Federations.

[andy]

How many are u sending Andy do u put some in fed as well

All mine duplicated into Fed Open Race kiddo.

I know what your saying m8 but statistically your wrong.The inland nats were introduced to encourage more members to have a go at THE GOLD CUP and channel races but it hasn't achieved this. Its still the same fanciers that go to these races and the inland races hasn't helped in any way imo, ps.I still enjoy them and will not miss them but the channel races is what the SNFC was founded on and should probably try and go back to that.

[blucock]

If nothing else Derek it gives National racing to lofts that wouldn't normally have a chance of winning a national. Alot of people especially nowadays don't or can't find the time to prepare and then physically wait for channel doos and on a hard race can be fully two days out of your time. I massively prefer the channel to any other type of racing but for busy people having to work weekends and having many other interests, family time etc the modern world isn't helping the channel send either

 

Like you say the theory above hasn't seemed to help the likes of the GC birdage, that I think was the idea as you say and I would still think that being able to duplicate fed birds into inland Nats helps feds (it does ours we had only 410 doos at Buckingham) balance the books

 

Each to their own, mind. Our senior partner dictates where we send and a channel race is a rarity for us sadly - best of luck this week and for the upcoming "big yins"!!
