Some people will look to dent anyone else's bubble as opposed to addressing the issues at their own loft.

Well done again Neil, a cracking result that was.
I have to say that I've never understood this limit on birds in a result !! Where is the satisfaction of being 4th if you know that there are another 18 birds in before yours !!!
I don’t know Trev
I guess the idea was to encourage people with ETS a result is destroyed by a few top lofts
I remember as a kid dreaming of a club card I wonder if over the years how many kids we have lost through being smashed each week since ETS or even in the days of a t3 and stall traps
Possibly the most unfair hobby where pure novices are thrown in with experts without a grade / league system
I always think clubs should be marking centres and feds run a league system would have helped retain fanciers

That is a very valid point Neil, as you say for young fanciers just starting up it can be very soul destroying !!
