Birds going on Friday as per weather committee

I WOULD LIKE TO ASK WHO AUTHORISED THE EMERGENCY MEETING AND FOR WHAT REASON.
As Far as I can see there is no emergency for this weekend racing and that WD,CF,DAR,CR,DV feds should all be racing from the proposed race which is BILLERICAY.
This is not a WDA CLASSIC race so is totally irellivent to what other feds race.
TD,AP,CON,NWC FEDS DECIDED where they wanted to race with no interference from the other 5 federations what so ever.
Also the programme which they set out would mean that 5 federations would have had 7 races with only 1 over 200 miles and

WHAT AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE AND SHAMBOLIC NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE.
Consists of 5 members

C BEADLE
R WADE
T COILS
MY SELF AND TONY COILS WERE NOT EVEN CONTACTED AND AS FAR AS WE ARE CONCERNED A FULL MEETING NEEDS TO BE CALLED FOR MONDAY NIGHT WITH ALL FEDS PRESENT IN OUR VIEW 3 members cannot change the Race program.
