Don't believe in it pal
Raced in Kent, London, Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridgeshire
Not been in one club where a eye sign man as been hard to beat racing.
Bill carney the eye sign expert told gil Duncan George buscheart racing partner that a bird would never win or breed a thing ,the bird in question was a buscheart cock called jaws that had won everything out to 400 miles ,gil Duncan excorted bill carney out he's garden and closed gate right behind him ,,this man was suppose to be the best eye sign expert in uk at that time.

The best way to assess pigeons we know is through the basket. Those pigeons that have as many good racer/breeders throughout their pedigree have a better chance of doing the same because you're not trying to reinvent the wheel by asking them to do something that their parents and g.parents didn't do

I'm not a big eyesign man and I'd never pick a pigeon based on its eye alone.

However, I do have a little "quirk" that I like to see, and as a rule it stands me in good stead
Phil said mike doesn't belive in eye sign and some you used to race against did and the closest they got to you was 5 mins behind you 🤣🤣 that's all mike
