A Hibs fan, too? That must be painful. Seriously.

Hilarious only word to describe it that is two s*it teams he supports poor lad must be in turmoil.

its not concern its called observation and an opinion and most people think Edinburgh are poor this season yet some of you bury your heads and cant actually hold a debate

 

Your observation about Edinburgh being weaker this season is correct, even the promotion have gone on record several times saying that during the off season. However where you will get pushback is making out the team is unlikely to make the play-offs based on 1 match at one one the favoured teams. The Monarchs have a far better track record at unearthing talent than most so may surprise you yet.

I get that.

 

But i can only base predictions, same as everyone else, on the starting 1-7 and if it stays the same then no i cant see Edinburgh making the play offs.

 

Im not basing it on one match as i said before a wheel was turned the 1-7 isnt good enough. Team changes, injuries, these can play a factor of course

People said the 2014 team wasn't that great on paper either and look what happened. Obviously Etheridge is no Darcy Ward in terms of his reputation before a wheel is turned in the UK but you never know what happens down the line.

Obviously Edinburgh are weaker this season. What I don't see though, is in previous years you could see several riders with the potential to really increase their average.

 

I just don't see that now.

BTW Blobby I'd like to wish you best off luck in the play off's but I can't as you will get pumped by Falkirk .(should make Lioness happy)

 

Stubbs should have kept is mouth shut - not intellegent

 

 

You might just have alienated half of Kirkcaldy as I think they might get a crack at hibs first lol

 

I've amended your last sentence - you seemed to start typing another post ;)

Max and Erik should increase a bit George ..and I don't think Sam is done at 8.98

However Jye and Bewley will fall Wolbert is static and Fisher an enigma !

Forgive me FB but I'm hardly getting a semi at the prospect.

 

BTW just fed the lesser talented Monarch(s) a great line there.

Went to the Stand for a change on Sunday and found it to have a great atmosphere and very comfortable.

Small part of the 1st bend obstructed but nothing too bad.

After seeing some folk covered in shale im glad I did.

Don't think I have ever seen anyone stay on a bike the way young Bewley did going round bends 3 & 4, it was frightening stuff to watch so I don't know how he felt afterwards.

 

tell you what, the kids all love that mascot !!

Bewley didn't look big enough for the bike. I've never ridden a speedway bike, but I don't think I could have finished any further behind than he did. I know I would have finished more heats than Etheridge.

Was nick morris as little? I think nick was slightly taller give a inch or two the young lad Bewley will come good but it might take a while to get used to wrestling with a 500cc

Similarities with Katajisto who was tentative when he first rode for Edinburgh but came good up to a certain level. Even managed an extra month at reserve when he really got going! EDI might be worth persevering with Bewley for longer than the 4 meetings to gain his registration then bank him for future use.

give dan a chance , he is young and keen as f@@k. it will be your loss . remember neil collins @ workington ? way behind and then all hell breaks loose after a trip to weymouth .

Ah Weymouth.

The memories come flooding back.

The downfall of many a poor boy.

not intellegent enough for mind games.

He's not the only one Gaz.

Not the only one.

Bewley is on loan from Belle Vue so you wont be banking him.
