Spas: Soft Launch of "Galacticos"

Written by Team Formand United at 17:25 20/8-2023

  The Moon Sports Newspaper is a critical organ at all times. This day we interview the criticised Team Manager of Team Formand United, Ebbe Spas.
  
  "Your season start was going to be Galacticos cool, but almost 1/3 in, it seems a little vague to me. Was it your explanation, Ebbe?"
  
  - Well, injuries. A classic, I know.. But some of the explanation. Also, the bio rhytms of the riders have been a little bad. I don't want to shoot anyone really, but on the positive side, some riders seem to improve last weeks.
  
  "You also added a young downhiller for your squad, but not really a captain more. What about your star Oddvar, does he deliver or not?"
  
  - This season he has made lots of results, almost in every race. So not bad at all, but disappointed a lot last season, which was ... ermm... disappointing..
  
  "And your record buy, 30 year old Stubbs - worth the money???"
  
  - He has been upping his prepping enough, but I am sure he will improve very soon. I added some personal changes to his medical regime by Dr. Ferrari.
  
  "You need more sponsors, it seems. Economy must be problematic with the Galacticos wages?"
  
  - Yes, we need a sponsor or two more. I actually fired the sponsor seller to save money.....
  
  "Bad idea, eh?"
  
  - Let's see. . I bet we will have a couple of Galactic results coming up next week and a sponsor too! Chris Boardman has done some nice networking!
