JohnQuinn Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 John please correct me if I am wrong but wasn't an agm decision overturned last year regarding the Ypres race?how was that done can you please explain that ? The Arras race point was deemed unsafe for the birds and convoyers as other transporters had been robbed a few weeks before we were due to go Jim, that's how it was changed.

dkj Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 think most feds in scotland had there race programme sorted for 2017, and then had to change it after the snfc agm with them altering the inland nationals one week, with no trouble, dont see why some in lanarkshire are making a big deal of it, on here it said it was almost a 2/3 of the members voted at the race meeting for to go west with race programme and 3 races with the snfc, surely the top table should take on board what the members wanted at the meeting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John, that being the case the fed should just have went to another race point or Ypres on there own, but they didn't they went with the Nat to Ypres That was the SNFC Mambo not Lan Fed 😉 Well John that's the first I've heard that! thought it was something to do with the fact that if wee went ourself to Ypres the turnout would have been very poor but there ye go you learn something every day lol. Jim, it will be ok this year as right now the Fed are going to Ypres with the SNFC so they won't have to worry too much about a poor entry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Reid Posted February 15, 2017 Report Share Posted February 15, 2017 Maybe off topic . But can remember when I first got involved in pigeon racing FED racing was everybody involved in the sport and guys that wanted to test their birds to the extreme joined the SNFC. At that time it was four races over the channel. Now you have guys spouting about SNFC prizes at three hundred miles plus . Soon be two hundred mls for a good nat doo. .*expletive removed* off.

JmhoStuart, beat me to the punch but your spot on, inland Nats have also killed the good open races from the coast that most Feds used to have, it's not so long ago that Lanarkshire 2 races around 340 - 360 Mls, a duplication / pool race plus an open race with good birdage and pools to match, they have also had a detrimental effect on gold cup race entry's Agree Nat races should all be from overseas and let the Feds take us to the coast, basically the way it used to be which worked well until inland Nats were introduced IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
