Homer's Odyssey/BHW Plus - 23/07/10

Post by willie reynolds »

The opening race from Tullamore last weekend was a bit of an experience, liberation was delayed until 1.45pm due to the heavy showers, in the South West wind the birds were still well split up and a lot reported missing as well. A start has been made after the first training race from Mullingar had been cancelled a week earlier, local fanciers have complained about the big jump in miles for a first race and this is something they need to address for the future. The second liberation from the same point was at 14.15hrs and featured among others Sections D, E, F, G & Bottom A etc

The big Coleraine Premier dominated the Coleraine Triangle T & J McDonald scored a good 1st, 2nd & 3rd followed by A & R McAuley and J L Madden both lofts having a top card. T Stewart had 1st & 2nd in Windsor Soc (1518) and T McCrudden had 1st County Derry (1510).

Williamson & Calvin Transporter will be training each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday for young bird season, starting 6th July till end of the season. Birds can be hampered the night before or up to 7.50am on morning of toss at 23 Farra Road, phone Ron Williamson Mobile: 07841 762399. Collection Points as before: Annaghmore Clubrooms 8.05am, Ballyoran Hill 8.20am, Edgarstown 8.40am, Laurelvale HPS Clubrooms 9.00am, Markethill Corner 9.30am, Newry Playing Fields 9.50am. Special training each Sunday from Balbriggan, same collection times.

Many thanks to all who send birds again last week. Birds can be left with Danny Dixon (Dunloy) for collection at 8.20am then Ballymoney HPS Clubrooms at 9.00am (Ballybracks Business Park), calling on way back at Rasharkin (Main St), Cullybackey HPS, and Galgorm/Gracehill (Contact Cowan Balmer at Royal Court) approx 10.00am. Further calls will be made in Ahoghill, Randalstown and Antrim by arrangement. Tel: 07538 238364. Weather permitting we will be going Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday next week. We update weekly on http://www.pigeonnetwork.com

For the young bird racing it would be very helpful if all clubs could list their results on their own club site at http://www.pigeonnetwork.com

We have arrangements to lift all results placed here to be used in the general publicity, time is a massive factor at present and it’s getting almost impossible to deal with all calls, e-mails, fax, mobile phone etc, etc. Another problem is catching late results, they really do need to be placed by Sunday night at the latest, all the news coverage and results has to be ready by first thing Monday. Most clubs are already up and running, we can help the remainder to get started, and this is the easy way to have the result listed and be available for general publicity.
