Very well done to forum member Neil Andrews (NeilA)
Yesterday saw him win 1,2,3 Club and 1,2,4 Federation
Unfortunately his Federation only alllow 3 prizes per loft so other pigeons were denied their place on the Federation sheet
Neil's a good flier and often keeps his head down in terms of his results, so I thought I'd right that wrong (a little)
Hope this is ok with you Neil - very well done yesterday
As youi can see by the winning vel of 1296 it was a good working day
Blue cock (on the right) is a previous winner and is full brother to 2 other 1st Federation winners

I think it’s ridiculous that there is a limit on a federation result. A club I can just about understand but in a federation it gives a very false result. Denying some good pigeons and praising others that shouldn’t really be on the sheet.
Were yours widowhood cocks Neil?
Our Club and Fed has 6 bird limit, as you say not so bad in the club as your result could go on for days lol and we only give prizes for the first 6 anyway, but I agree that there shouldn't be a limit in Federations or Combines !! It does give a very false result and, as in our Federation, cards are given for the first 20 so isn't right. You say any true fancier would want an honest result Andy, I agree in principle, but all these rules are voted on and could be changed so the majority are obviously happy with it !! We've tried to change it several times in South Coast Federation and got out voted and the Sussex North Road is a relatively new organisation and that rule was put in from the start.
that will do me
