They won't see the season out imo. Throwing around top money for a cba Zagar when they were already struggling financially in the Championship spells disaster.

If Zagar is signed, he’ll be eagerly awaiting for the away fixture/s at Leicester to be announced…..so that he has time for excuses for being unavailable. Unless you follow Belle Vue, I don’t see why anyone else would want this guy as your No.1. That said, if he sees the season out and averages over 8.5 I’ll take my hat off to him. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Really…. ? so, you didn’t believe my earlier post about Laurence Rogers then!!!! Thought you’d been around the Brummies long enough to be able to read the signs by now. has all the signs of being yet another disastrous team , destined for abject failure yet again. Will Nigel Tolley never learn ? Seems not Edited November 23, 2023 by the hobbit 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zagar signed for brummies In a league with riders such as Holder x 2, Tai, Fricke, Bewley, Emil, Doyle, Kurtz, Tarasenko, Lidsey, Tobi, (Janowski?) et al, Matej would find it difficult as a No1.. Similar to when the Aces went with Simon Stead in that position I would suggest.. And that didnt end well... Edited November 23, 2023 by mikebv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will Nigel Tolley never learn ? Seems not I was/am giving Nigel the benefit of doubt (well, at least until there's an Official announcement/signing..)he went up in my estimation last season when he replaced LR as Team Manager Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProudtobeaBrummie 646 Posted November 23, 2023 If we start the season with Zagar as number 1 we are finished before we even start . This has the LR stamp all over it . Stefan Neilson will no doubt be our number 6 . I have no problem with Zagar been in the team . What average would he come in on ? surely he is no where near his last average ability ? Which means we would be chucking a couple of points away straight off . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Up to five races a night involving the two big hitters from the likes of Sheffield, Ipswich and Belle Vue (with several heats having both of them in), would take a fair old toll on that figure I would suggest..
