Trevor Swales:
“I would refute that our team-building was wrong given the fact we will finish the season with a line-up featuring five of the riders who started it here.
“Perhaps we under-estimated the impact of injuries on several of our riders. Kenneth Bjerre, Linus Sundstrom and Patrick Hougaard were all coming back from nasty injuries while Norbert Kosciuch had also had an operation after the 2012 season.
“The fact we went into the Elite League season cold after getting no track-time due to bad weather didn’t help us either"
What nonsense, The side was crap at the start of the season with no star riders like Jepsen Jensen and it was a recipe for disaster.
Also the evening telegraph understands the Panthers made 6 figures losses.
