are you saying birds can leave and go to the race point no matter what

Just the opposite George if the pigeons were a threat, changing race points would not solve the threat.

The point is there is no evidence that they are.

Regards.

i thought it had all to do with the area birds were leaving and going into

David what do you make of the post on chat there would no racing if your in a  infected  area

ive not read it george, not been on there for a week or so .......ill take a look

a lot seem to think there will be no racing this year george, defra has certainly blown avian flu up this time compared to other years, they seem to have the same approach as they did with covid, scare and manipulate people into complying ......the more fanciers comply the worse its going to get.

that's why  i think olr ay turn out best if they can leave the area they can go north or south

rpra still advertising for one loft entries, it seems there are places still available .

£125 per bird

it is a lot of money at this time

yes it is george, and uncertain what will happen regards racing, but im sure they will sort some type of racing out......they will have to do .

Change of plan now, no tent at Blackpool, apparently too expensive so no pigeons on show

its a farce isnt it colin, do you think the rpra knew all along it was going to be like this ...?

looks like the blackpool show is ruined

can see Blackpool becoming a one day show

if things keep going like they are i think it will be the end of the blackpool show ....everything people go to do/ see will not be happening.

I think for whatever reasons they were too sure that the restrictions would be lifted in time so hadn't a plan B in place. So now it's too late in the day and end up with egg on their faces.

Anyone thinking of going to Blackpool and looking on some RPRA information sites could still think everything is alright by some sites.

Sureley they should take them down.

i think the rpra are still trying to make money misty ......

of course they are could all close down soon

i think the whole country is going to shut down if this government have their way .....but what alternative do we have labour ........

Labour 

liebour would be a total disaster ,but i can see it happening

This was their advert promoting the show just last week: painting everything was rosy when they knew there were problems round the corner: madness

more deceiving than madness for me ,they know the score they have all the bird-flu rules and are aware more than anyone else having the facts/up-dates to hand ...as regions come under restriction they will be e-mailed immediately i just hope fanciers get a discount on the door for a depleted show ? i wonder if theres a new manager in place yet or is old blakey running the show

with all these restrictions in place over avian flu, and pigeon men having restrictions place on them, farmers and other bird / poultry keeps have restrictions placed on them ........i wonder what restrictions have been placed on the rsbp and their man made nesting sites for hawks / bops etc within restricted areas ...?

good point david i never thought of that but of course as we know when it comes to rspb favorites like birds of prey they have special treatment and are allowed to litter their nest site with dead bird debris and poop etc...which may be contaminated of course ...i remember an article a while back stating they can spread the disease

exactly darren, they could be spreading it by killing/eating infected birds etc .........questions need to be asked.

come on rpra lets start asking a few questions
