john what happened there. was the lanarkshire fed race programme was put in before the snfc had there agm as last years programme.. and the snfc brought there races a week earlier which made the difference, i would have thought the lanarkshire would have altered the race programme one week to catch the snfc races. seams silly not to. you would think common sence would prevail,

again thats pigeon men for you

The problem arose because they voted the Airdrie proposal in en bloc, including the dates of the races. Imo the proposal should have been withdrawn or as Jim Hannah pointed out a rider could have been attached to the proposal that woulda tied in with the SNFC races. But neither was done so we had to go as the proposal was presented.

 

Defo an error by the proposer and supporters on this occasion.

But neither was done so we had to go as the proposal was presented.

 

Defo an error by the proposer, compounded by the supporters of the proposal not working out the dates either. :emoticon-0127-lipssealed:

for me i would think the top table would see what happened with the dates as the snfc have altered there race dates,and just alter it for that one week at there 1st meeting, all rules are just guide lines to stop cheats surely something as simple as that can be altered, in my eyes common sense should take place here

Aye that easy

Think costs could have been lowered via joint transport. Even IF separate liberations. JMO.

RULE (noun) Meaning in the Cambridge dictionary ,

An accepted principal or instruction that states the way things are or should be done, and tells you what you are allowed and are not allowed to do.

You must not break the rules , but in SPECIAL CASES you can BEND / STRETCH the rules. ?.

Common sense does not win over democracy Davie, if it did they would throw the whole program oot and go East :emoticon-0136-giggle:

Cheat in other words ??? The rules are there tae stop cheats no encourage them. And this is Not a special case, it's incompetency plain and simple.

I remember a very similar response tae wan of oor meetings not so long ago, it raged on here for ages, just highlights the strongly held Opinions of some wanting different race routes from others, problem only arises when some people seek tae change results of a bonafide AGM Decision.

Ave never in my life saught tae alter the outcome of a vote or go start another club/organisation up because it didnae suit me, a go way the majority vote at all times and (foolishly maybe) I expect the same from everyone else. Just as I will do and expect on this occasion.

i was sick at the snfc agm, but you just have to take what happens there and deal with it,

going a lone will cost the fed plenty for the 3 longest races, but going with the snfc will save you money and they will have more cover also from the hawks,

Every thing ye say is right Davie and numbers wise it makes life easier tae duplicate, for me as much as for anyone else, but the vote was taken and carried and no matter personal benefit the vote Must stand.

The costs tae the Fed are not an issue, we are well enough funded in the first 7 races tae carry us the rest of the way without making a Loss....no sure the birdage for the first 7 will carry us through this year though !!!
