Testimonials.
Ian Stafford – ‘Ian Gill has been one of my closest friends in the sport for nearly 20 years and in that time he has bought from
me only my very best and on many occasions these were my top breeders and Fed winners.The Staf van Reets he has are as good
as you will get anywhere and now he has the very best of my top winning Thonés. No one has had any better from my lofts than
Ian Gill.’
A & R Milligan, Hillsborough & Maze HPS – ‘We had a few young birds from Ian Gill in 2008 and already these have won 2 NIPA
Section D for us. The first Section win was with one bred by Ian and the second a cross with our own birds.’
Rab Fear, South Belfast HPS. ‘I have only had a couple of birds from Ian and both have bred winners.’
Audley & Duggan South Belfast HPS. ‘We bought SVR young birds from Ian and they have won 5 x 1sts for us along with top
Fed and Section positions.

Auctioneer’s Comment. ‘After much persuasion Ian has finally decided on Blackpool 2010. Ian is a very laid-back fancier, vastly underestimated, and a
connoisseur of quality pigeons. The stock loft is oozing with quality having sourced only the best, regardless of costs. Being a personal friend of the UNC legend
Ian Stafford, I have to say without fear of contradiction that Ian is the Irish home of the Staffy bloodlines and for certain no one has any better. The absolute
cream of the SVR & Jos Thonés. Now as regards to long-distance bloodlines – top drawer. Where else do you see two French O/B Derby winners and a INFC
Hall Of Fame winner under the one roof Also the absolute cream of Davy Black’s world-famous family. Ian also owns the crème de la crème of the John
Greenaway Iron Lady family, purchased at the clearance sale, and turning out winners galore. Many winners are reported year in year out and I have no doubt
winners will come from the purchases today. Cannot recommend enough.’
