Agree and Tero would do a brilliant job or what about Nikolaj Busk Jakobsen as another who would fit Regards THJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob Lyons becomes manager and deal done in days. My theory, having listened to what he has said (previously) and what I have read a few times over the winter, is that the logistics of riding in the British, Swedish, Polish and Danish leagues coupled with the GP’s meant it took a bit of sorting out. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
