Mr Blobby

Rob shuttleworth was the rider as far as I'm led to believe. Seems like we are struggling to get a reserve if we are going for NL 6 pointers.

Seems we've had another west invasion on the Edinburgh thread, not surprise really as who wouldn't want to be a monarch.

Keep telling yourself that.

You just can't keep away.

Cause we are going to sign two 3 pointers and be 3 points under the limit right enough.

Somewhere between now and the start of the season.

Nope.

lets be honest both sets of fans are as obsessed as each other. All part of the rivalry.

Yet glasgow fans post more on this thread than the Edinburgh fans. Then you wonder why we call you obsessed.

You don't half like coming on this thread and try and stir it. http://www.edinburghmonarchs.co/news/article.asp?id=2276 Good positive interview with the fish.

Quit stirring. its set up like a wolves nice and grippy but with slightly smaller straights. It's a track that you need attack to ride well if you don't well your struggle. If you go in the Edinburgh website there are plenty of races on it for you to watch to get a rough idea what it's like.

We have won the league without Cook before i'm pretty sure we are more than capable of doing it again. Our promotion aren't stupid they no how to build winning teams. They will only sign riders that fit into the way we do things and riders that they feel will increase their average over the season. Yes we are losing Cook and Sedgmen but just because we are replacing them like for like as such doesn't mean we aren't going to make them points up in other places of the team. I fully expect Erik and Max to put at least a point on their starting averages at least, the Fish back at his rightful home were he is happy can only mean good things and I think he will be finish the season with a average of just over 8.

Can score all the points he wants in Aus. It's what he scores and does over here that counts.

After your first season in the PL coming from the NL you get a 2.5% reduction for the next 3 seasons.

We have 6.21 remaining as max gets a reduction.

So the fish returns.

I would be very very surprised if we haven't got the final two signed up or at least In negotiations.

Be interesting to see what route we go down for the last 2 riders with 13.73 remaining. Do we go for a 8 and 5 point rider or do we go more solid and go for a 6 and a 7. I'm sure we will find out a but more come Friday.

Clegg is a Cradley asset and we got priority last year and I don't think that changed for this year either. So I still think PL gets priority over NL.

2.5% so should have a average of 3.39 for next season.

So i take it the rule on Aussies has changed back to a 5.00 then if so what was the point in putting up to a 7.00 last year just to change it back the following year. Or does Allen have a British great great Uncle or something nobody has told us about.

Allen was going to be 7.00 with berwick last year so that should leave 6.87. But if you use that dodgy calculator they have down there that would leave 8.87 for the last rider.

Problem?

He probably would have been at Leicester but they were taking far to long about getting him signed. He might of even became a lions asset but once it was clear that Leicester weren't to clear on what they were doing that was never going to happen. Sam should put a point at least on his starting average he was performing very well at PL level even taking the number 1 spot away from cook for part of the season and performing well for the lions also until he got injured. when he came back he was struggling a bit with his hand witch didn't really fully recover until the last few weeks of the season.

Boxall has decent ability. Equipment always seems to be a problem and if he can get that sorted then he should do a decent job at reserve
