Lanarkshire Federation
Tom Corrie jnr
This weeks Open race was from Charnock Richard a small village and civil parish in the borough of Chorley, Lancashire, in England. Its around the 160 miles back to central Scotland.The all time low birdage of 860 young birds were liberated in a strong west wind at 7am.
What a "shocker" of a race developed, with again horrendous returns reported across the federation. One hundred miles of pure torture for the convoy.
A "disaster" is the only words you can write to describe this race.
Most clubs struggled to make a result with a large percentage of birds never to be seen again.These are youngsters that have already had it very tough in this years programme.
So its not unfit pigeons! Make your own judgement on the cause, this federation will suffer big style for this years race programme.
The true members who have supported the federation have suffered for this programme.
Taking us into the Lions den!.
Well thats most of the membership finished for the season and still two Appleby races left to finish the season.
With any race there is a winner,this weeks Open winner is Jim Wilkinson of Airdrie Dist.Jim is a big performance fancier who has won top prizes at club,federation and National level.He is a hard man to beat most weeks,usually fighting for the top prize not only at club but federation .He has received a report this year already for winning major honours within the federationThe winner is a red hen raced on the darkness .His winner is bred from a son of his good mealy stock cock,this cock is an excellent racer and had a 2nd section SNFC.The dam is from his good friend D Jamieson of East Calder. and is out of his Champion hen Rosary beads
Well done Jim on a top performance..
