UPDATE 09/08/2021

Well, like nigh everything in the Pigeon fraternity, a Farce! Pee is squeezed from all whether they know or not!

The strangest thing, I've noticed over many years, is the 'Apathy' in acceptance via the fancier. Even a clambering to stand side by side with these vultures, who with glibbed tongues extract the pee and their money. And yet surprisingly are very often well thought of.

One thing for sure it would be hard to find a pair of balls on most fanciers. Yes no appoliges for that is for sure!

Those who stand up and question are soon called and outcasted. Restricted and name called ... Behind their backs, of course!

will agree on that david ...still no sign of 75 brothers and sisters to all our one loft entries are doing well elsewhere are we being de-selected for being out spoken i wonder who knows eh but will pose some questions to the committee when its all over as to what the heck is going on ,by the way only 4 yearlings came out of ireland hardly a mass crossing across the water eh as implied

As a matter of interest, are there independant witnesses? Ones who confirm the results straight after the birds homing? !

If not! Why not?

more likely would be an 'old Pals act' any way.
Should be 5 independant witnesses chosen fron other that they don't know... or paired with again.

no daz non at all....also i thought there was a limit of 5 entries for any individual or syndicate, i can see several with more ...one had 12 entries go figure hardly fair is it ,anyway all being documented for my one loft file

definately need to start looking at other one lofts, the rpra is a disaster ......

Exactly my thoughts Daz, through very personal experience.

Found the very top people capable of ignoring the Rules, lying and fabricating evidence, the Council Chairman of the time a useless individual who had not a clue regardig the Rules, some of the same people still at it and one in particular held in high esteem by many no doubt in the hot place he deserves.

Said countless times Apathy by those who could not be bothered are content with their little lot and could not care less about anything else are the cause of the sports demise.

The grinning goons you see in the BHW could not care less about the grass root fanciers ( not all but you can pick them out).

Apathy, Apathy.

Regards.

Just read in the Daily Mail.

Russia suspected of sonic weaponry.

Think aimed at diplomats.

If Russia are doing it China will be streets ahead.

Out poor feathered friends may not be to blame for poor performances.

Surely not etc O/S a David      conspiracy type factor     in motion against us here by Jeremy & Co I just think here somehow       our 75 as such just gave up hope I'm Being just totally bored with life now as he had been to the 23 mile stage that many times he just unfortunately decided in his wisdom to jump of a cliff maybe to somehow just try & take the pain away .

who knows what happened to our 75 yesterday but it clocked in on the ets live at 8.04 this morning

Besides your money lol

yes daz, the money too.....he`s lost £400 of our money without a care in the world

our two yb entries and our yearling entry .

Well.... Maybe helps to swell his pockets. Possibly a few others too eh!

Sad as it is, nothing in nthis so called game/sport ever changes.
it is like the stupidity of member voting in a married couple. old man Sec and wife Treasurer!
Open to temptation and theft.
 
Voting in a member they know is living on a shoe string!!!

In my clubs I wanted that to be different. So laid truths and truths of what very well happen. Yes two or three different signatures went on the cheques etc.

Some sheered away from the responcibility. Many blamed me! But truth be known. A. I'd closed a door'! then heard the lame excuse of 'He's spouting I'm dishonest. Crap, if honest, they wouldn't give a S..t what I, or anyone else thought. Indeed be only too pleased when left into place.

Known a few real good secs/ treasures etc.
one of the best was a single middle age chappie named tonuy. Never own a pigeon in his life, but hung around many who did.
great and honest fellow to boot.

Fiasco does not do it justice.

They should have had at least a weeks rest and gone straight into the first race.

Just exactly what is the manager trying to do ?.

Is he in with the raptor lovers and supplying their fodder or just incompetent.

Never known such a lash up all round.

Regards.

yeah £450 of our dosh swallowed up eh ,the yearling event was awful but lesson learnt eh ...i think the manager took to much on with yearlings and ybs but no doubt nudged in that direction by the rpra board wanting to re-coup the lost revenue from the blackpool show
