O dear was thinking the tomorrow may not come arguement,is just whats got us here Yes/No

David, You entrence into our sport has help lift many on this site.Your thread and the way it has unfolded,has been inspiring to many. In addition to this we all love a happy ending Well done ma man Cheers Rab Smith

Bluepiedcock sad story in more ways than one. I have just return to the sport and find it hard that we have allowed things to get so bad. There are many reasons we find ourselfs here but weak leadership,with little mind for change has played a big part in our demise. Enjoy your birds Good luck

Use to race pigeons short distances a mile.in years goonby the had clubs and raced many times in the one day,sometimes on an knockout basis. Been away for years

Yes this was discussed at length last night.Some going a bit over the top. Where you go with you pigeons is your buisness Wish you all the best for the rest of your racing Cheers Rab Smith

Well done driver still time to get more yet,though not a nice morning up here in Cumbernauld Cheers Rab Smith

Your right mate forgot about the milers

You count just as much as anyone. But not enogh has changed Unsure about mid week clubs now

You right it will never work cause to many will look for problems with it.Two many scared or radical change. One thing for sure, save on fuel bill for the year and fill the transporter up the way it should be. You can be sure that the y/b will be home first 9 times out of 10. The financial implications of this make it at least worthy of further consideration. As would the increase in numbers of birds on the same flight path

Start the y/b season early June national in July. We start racing to early with o/b. We could do any age racing together, seperate baskets from the end of May start of June.y/b National taking place within this system when the 250 mile stage comes around mid July.

I Duncan, and you'l also get one who eats all the Pies. Cheers Rab

Well done mate.you will learn as you go

Our y/b national should be something any new start should like to take part, we are not making it easy.

Funny story, Many moons ago say 20/25 years.A young fancuier joined our club he was a boy of around 14. In his first year he won 4 out of the 6 y/b races. After his third win both myself and another local fancier visited his loft (Hut) no windows in complete darkness,like the old hands we were we advised the lad to open up his loft let some light on his birds. Can not recall him winning again.So this darkness has been around for sometime in one form or another

Good to here about your good season Bart,well done mate. One of the reasons for this as explained by youself is that Lanarkshire is one of the few progresive feds around, and of that you should be proud. Would like to here your thoughts on as discussed why are wee keeping our birds in the dark for a race in September (National), when it could take place much earlier in the year. As suggested above. Cheers
