Think most speedway fans are of the same opinion about Zagar by looks of it?

Can do it IF he wants to....IF he doesnt, then might as well not bother?

That's the risk/chance you take with 'has-beens' !

Need to get the track set-up right for him to do his stuff!

Hearing we may be signing a Dane who hasn't ridden in UK in recent years but comes with a decent pedigree in Poland and Sweden.

It's NOT Masden nor a GP rider.

A decent second string engine room operator

Why not just say Michael Jepsen Jensen?

I’ve got starting averages as follows: 

1. Musielak - 8.21

2. Jeppesen - 6.00 (reassessed)

3. Zagar - 7.2 (existing average from 2022)

4. Nilsson - 6.00 (reassessed)

5. Thorsell - 7.33 (existing average from 2019) 

6. Rew - 5.67

7. Edwards - RS

Total - 40.41

This means either Zagar or Thorsells existing average is going to have to be reassessed. Most likely Thorsell as his was achieved 5 years ago. If the rules remain the same as per 2024 regulations he will come in on a 6.00 also, meaning Birminghams final 1-7 would be like this:

1. Musielak - 8.21

2. Jeppesen - 6.00

3. Thorssell - 6.00

4. Nilsson - 6.00

5. Zagar - 7.2

6. Rew - 5.67

7. Edwards - RS

Total - 39.08

 

So if it is Jeppesen, then it's beginning to look like the guys over in Norfolk have a pretty good idea what the final team is going to be.

That's the name i was told at the weekend.

I'd not read this thread in full before posting earlier so it seems to back up your information.

Source was a Club Sponsor.

One rumour.

From a Club Sponsor.

They were erring on what to do for 2025 so was told a definite signing.

Jeppesen, Nilsson, Thorsell and Zagar look handy guests should teams need them early in the season.

I have no idea who that is.  Someone said he'd ridden here before, was that at Championship level?

Jonas Jeppesen was very young when he last rode in this country. He's now grown into being a very good rider and has plenty of experience in the Polish ekstraliga with Czestochowa. He'd be a solid rider over here imo.

Edit: just doing some more research on him. He last rode in the Ekstraliga in 2022, achieving a 1.359 average (5.44 in our terms)

2023: rode for Landshut in the second tier of Polish speedway with an average of 1.262 (5.05)

2024: rode for Pila in the third tier of Polish speedway with an average of 1.809 (7.24)

I'd say the Prem is somewhere similar to the second tier of Polish speedway in terms of strength, so Jonas should average 5-5.5ish. He's still only 26!!

Madsen would be nice.

[Hiworldimalive2006]

I have no source on this or anything just speculating.

 

Could it be Rasmus Jensen? He rode in the Ekstraliga in Poland and the Elitserien in Sweden last season, would probably have an assessed average of 6, and I'm pretty sure he's said in the past that he'd be open to returning to the UK.

Spelling mistake.
