That includes the shocking manager who you only have to listen too years of incoherent commentary to know he's not up to the task I disagree tbh. I think Zach Cook has done well and has gone some what under the radar. I also think Pavlicki will do well given a few more meetings. The issue we have is that we really need a big hitter but who is available that will ride for us? Zagar? Will do a reasonable job... Double figs (including bonus), most nights off five rides I would say.. One win and maybe one last per night, with the rest in scoring positions.. He would keep the score at least closer than maybe some.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iainb 5,196 Posted April 28 (edited) Personally, I don't think Zagar is the answer for Brum, Milik needs replacing for me, he's not even one for the future. Tolley needs to approach one of the other half a dozen riders that were "on offer" "Laurence (Rogers - Director of Speedway) and Chris (Adams - Assistant Team Manager), as well as myself, are extremely busy in the background to make sure we pick the best two from around half a dozen riders we have on offer.” - Nigel Tolley Edited April 28 by iainb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teromaafan 593 Posted April 28 Put assessed and rolling averages to one side. Their top two in the averages for this season so far are Brennan and Worrall. Enough said! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Birmingham replace Lampart, so Milik is reserve, then he's worth keeping imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One win and maybe one last per night, with the rest in scoring positions.. He would keep the score at least closer than maybe some.. As Wolfe said, he is a one track pony in the UK these days. Huge difference between his BV average and his away average. Would struggle for double figures imho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a reason that for a couple of years at least Zagar has started the season without a Premiership and Polish club - purely because he asks for too much money vs his scoring ability.
