Not true Flying Panther is correct and we couldn't get a top NO1 at the time because there wasn't anybody available at the time. It wasn't the pre season team building that was wrong it was all the team changes that followed during the season
True , but they were only short term deals in the case of Bjerre and Thomsen and as far as I am aware Cook didn't demand exceptional money and was happy to be offered a team place , . and all riders wages were paid promptly nobody was left being owed money.
