spt82 86 Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) suprised, you dont usually post deluded sh!te like this Scotsman. I think Erik and Max could easily add 1.5 points to their averages next season, not overly deluded. Edited November 17, 2015 by spt82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,484 Posted November 18, 2015 suprised, you dont usually post deluded sh!te like this Scotsman. Not deluded at all. I would certainly expect Erik to add 1 to 1.5 points on his average. He was world long track champion last year so has a pedigree. He has now been to all the tracks. And he was making heat 14 his own home and away last season. Max was going well at the end of last season. He too has seen all the tracks. But most significantly he will be riding against wobblers (including his reserve partner) in 2 or 3 races which he wasn't last season. So I would expect an increase of 2 points at least.

Pob 545 Posted November 18, 2015 Has Cameron Heeps got a team? He's done well round Armadale in the past. As yet no team has signed him up from what i have read on here. Will do him good to get away from Foxhall this season providing he gets picked up by another team and has for once an injury free season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,484 Posted November 18, 2015 wobblers !! hows that then ? max is no6 he will only meet no 7's in heat 2,and the no6's in2 and 14.the other 2 programed rides are again heat leaders and second stringers.. As SCB has said re Castagna at Ippo.................. He'll meet the NL riders 3 or 4 times a meeting giving him 3 or 4 points, plus the opposition reserve so assume he beats them half the time thats another 2 giving him 4-6 points a meeting. max didn't look too clever around the E.O. E. S this last season wobblers would have stood a very good chance. I agree - Showground not a great track for him - yet. Mind you Grondal wasn't much cop at Armadale - 6. Emil Grondal 1¹,1¹,0 = 2+2 but 6. Max Clegg 3,1,0,2¹ = 6+1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DavyH 164 Posted November 19, 2015 wobblers !! hows that then ? max is no6 he will only meet no 7's in heat 2,and the no6's in2 and 14.the other 2 programed rides are again heat leaders and second stringers.. I am sure there be reserve changes in every meeting in every heat apart from ht 2 to ensure the senior reserve gets the points. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Endeavour 689 Posted November 22, 2015 Cameron Heeps signed for Rye House. Wouldn't have minded seeing him at Edinburgh in 2016. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dekker 239 Posted November 22, 2015 Why ppl keep mentioning southern based riders like Heeps all the time just makes me laugh, few will make the run north on a Friday. Look for more foreign riders if anything. Although i think Edinburgh wont move until the Masters situation is resolved. But we probably wont get any signing info till the video night in Dec.

stewmac 486 Posted November 22, 2015 i think Edinburgh wont move until the Masters situation is resolved. What is the situation with Sam anyway? You say it as if there is a problem... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KevH 257 Posted November 22, 2015 I've not seen him mentioned in this thread, but surely Mark Riss must be a possibility at Armadale next season? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Blobby 2,698 Posted November 22, 2015 (edited) I've not seen him mentioned in this thread, but surely Mark Riss must be a possibility at Armadale next season? From what i have seen of him i wasn't really that impressed with him and think he would struggle to maintain his average IMO. Would rather try and get some else, someone like Hartel would be a decent signing. Edited November 22, 2015 by Mr Blobby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

damosuzuki 696 Posted November 22, 2015 wants to go EL/Poland route a la Cook it's rumoured. I would have thought the sensible thing for him would be to have a proper bash at being number 1 at Edinburgh. Right decision for Cook but Masters isn't there imo. Can definately see Josh ending up at Edinburgh the way the teams have gone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spt82 86 Posted November 22, 2015 I don't really get the Grajczonek to Edinburgh rumours, is there any reason for him to be leaving Somerset? And he's been inconsistent at best round Armadale over the years. That said I would be reasonably pleased if he did come, especially if Sam does comes back also would be happy with that as a top two.
