That is a nice diplomatic way to say it. Maybe i will switch to some focus next year, for example Antarctica, and will look forward to dozen 75-76+ talents nobody else cares about, so they go for 50k.

I hear North Korea are developing some super talents as far as i'm aware super leader Kim Jung-Un has won the Tour de France the last 22 years |

I was thinking North Korea for my team but Kim Jung- Un wanted to be title sponsor and ride on my team

Do agree that too many good Sri Lankans were added to the db this year. For once, I'm not to blame though

Are we sure these are even in the DB or is this just an Illusion |

After the decent offers during the last 36 hours or so, I'm currently struggling to fill the squad with some cheap riders. I don't find anything interesting of the free agents market

I was really too kind to Sri Lanka though, agree.
No decent riders for Sri Lanka for the next 5231031 years it is then!

I only looked through the DB yesterday and seen some good riders but we are nearly finished I think now just waiting on a few more deasl to be done but I would like to bring in some loaned riders to take my team up to 17 or 18 riders.

At the moment I've successfully negotiated for 11 riders, but budget/sallary strains may force me out of the transfer market. At the moment 4 free agents are linked with the team and I need them cheap. However around 14-15 riders could be a good deal

There is crowd of useful eastern europeans (now or for the future) for CT still without single bid, so you just need to browse and do some calculations. There are even good guys for PCT and PT still...

If you look well you are able to put together a good team with riders who have not yet received any proposal
Edit:
Two more riders enter the team this way begins to be almost ready
Is far from being a top team but I am still satisfied with what was possible to do so far

Very versatile team, doesn't look like you'll be dropping points anywhere.

Pretty nice mid-table team I would say. Also hopefully Kupfernagel will overperform like last year, he was fun to have in reports especially from a reporters pov
