Snfc Gold Cup

reims.. ancenis.. ypres.. roye

 

lets stick too a programme instead of chopping n changing every year there is a bad race, it could benefit the pigeons long term more so at reims and ancenis when the majority of the convoy have probably been there before...

Imo Alencon has consistently been a bad race point with bad returns year after year

[Andrew suckle]

if the solway boys win from anywhere why are u wanting it back to alencon u should not care where it's from and I'm for Reims

[Dmurray]

Imo The gold Cup should be reims so it's at least 500 miles to every loft in Scotland

Tougher than it should for me. As said before a 450 to the central belt might get more interested

2009 2011 2012 where all bad races and if less than 50% of the convey making it home is a good race am in the wrong game

I think you'll find the % returns from this years Reims race is far less than the returns from the years you mentioned from Alencon. BTW 2011 gold cup was from Messac which was without doubt a bad race.

Your correct it's far far less but that was human error this year and nothing else, what am getting at is its time for a change and I think we should stick with Reims and give it a chance as it's a good race point

I've not got a problem with Reims, the SNRPC have had good racing from there, but I don't think Alencon has been as bad as you stated in your first post.

As you know Derek I travel lots between fechan and Kirkintilloch but have never felt the urge to go via Biggar........the traditional route for me

If ye were a doo ye would think differently lol

Totally agree

One of the reasons for coming out of Clermont -"transporters are parked under a motorway bridge where the birds are exposed to traffic noise and fumes and therefore may not be properly rested "

Reims -"large Lorry/truck stop and very busy" obviously with the same problems as above I guess ????
