I think your misinterpreting what Cami has said......Nobody, not even the Edinburgh promoters would have predicted Victor would be scoring 19/20 points a meeting and beating heat leaders. It was a shrewd signing and all credit to them. But surely you can see that a reserve rarely scores double figures and beats the opposing heat leaders. The Tarasenko comparison isn't quite the same though, still a shrewd signing which obvs helped us win the league but he wasn't at reserve...... What i'd like to know is why didn't Glasgow sign Victor ? Just imagine if they had done so instead of signing Brougen....

I'd like us all to just try and remember what age he is and not be too hard on him. If you've played sport at any level you'll know that what's going on in your head can massively effect your performance. Usually talented teens just rise through the ranks maybe with a few bumps but i can't remember seeing someone with so much promise suddenly fall off like Ashton has. I genuinely wish him all the best and hope he gets back to his best.

Just looking down the field and the fact it was at Ashfield Dan Thompson would have won this easily if he hadn't crashed. Ashton Boughen though ...i think we all forget what age he is, so i do feel kinda bad being critical about him but surely i'm not alone thinking that at the very least he would've....won a race, outscored Max or Freddy. I just so perplexed by him.

It reminds of what Dimitri Berge was like when he came back from the injury he suffered (can't remember what it was) when he was with us. So maybe......it could be coached out of him, but from what i've seen so far, and also going back to watch him riding for Oxford on YT everything everyone is saying is on the mark, gates and flies off into the distance, or misses it and then just can't/won't/or unable to mix it when the chance arises

Lol very true that and and he would of taken a look at your track and done a 'Leon Madsen'

Maybe Jose could talk him into it, but I'm guessing the Facenna's deep pockets are more appealing lol

I can't see him packing it in for a good few years yet, Rides in both leagues and does Longtrack and Grasstrack meetings so he obvs loves it and the constant travelling isn't getting to him yet

It's lovely to see you.

I'll hold my hands up and say i didn't want him back.

You must be sick of Chris Harris in 2nd legs at Wimborne Rd.

Track did look amazing that's for sure

Shovlar hasn't been seen since Page 13 of this thread.

You do know Edinburgh could've signed him ?

Live by the sword die by the sword

If the track wasn't such a gaters paradise maybe the home riders could of made more of a fight of it, but you pick your poison.
