[CT] Netia - Norske Skog

i1380.photobucket.com/albums/ah164/trekbmc1/Banner%20-%20News_1.png

Major developments have been happening since the tour of Polonge, where Andrey Zeits triumphed in front of our home crowd.

We have been in deep negotiations with our sponsors and they have both declared they are staying with the team for another season.

Netia were very happy with the team composition and were pleased with results, particularly the tour de Polonge win, discussions were to be had but the end result was a similar agreement to last year, at least a 40% Polish and at least 50% Eastern European squad and goals and rider targets that will be disclosed closer to the transfer season, also promises were made for a higher budget if we reach the PCT next season.

Norske Skog were a more delicate issue, they were happy with Adam Stachowiak finishing 4th in the tour of Norway and Kristian Sobota's general performances but were unhappy with the lack of Norweigen riders, especially as Krister Hagen has not been very active during the season. They eventually agreed on the terms that we have at least 4 Norweigen riders next season and that we keep Adam Stachowiak signed for the team.

Guerciotti also signed again as the teams equipment sponsor, although with the request that should the team reach the Pro continental tour, it would help to see an Italian rider in the squad. ProAction, Elite, Shimano and Przewozy Regionalne were all content to sign for another season while Elko is pulling out of sponsorship, leaving a space open on the jersey for sponsors to put their name. Which we are currently looking for a sponsor to fill the position of, while Sandvik have expressed interest in a Swedish cyclist in the squad.

We are still searching for a sponsor to replace Elko but ultimately we have had a very good time resigning sponsors for next season.

Tatranska Klasika


pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2015/profiles/c2hc/takl.png


Tatranska Klassika is mountainous, not the team's forte, but all promotion points matter at the moment so we were hoping Domagalski could do well.

Zsolt Der joined the morning break.

Sancor's Roman ended up the front with Der, who was the last one left in the break.

Krisa from Sportful again designed our jersey this season, our sponsor's remained similar, so the jersey was not going to change too much, although krisa still produced a beautiful jersey for Netia - Norske Skog 2016.

Very nice win for Netia. Great push ahead of the final few races!

Nice jersey. Although I had to check that there are indeed some minor changes on the jersey as it look so similar to the old one Wink
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters!

We are currently in 9th and promotion spots are currently expected to be given to up to 8th place which we are 17 points behind In-N-Our for with just one race left on the CT calendar, Zuri - Metzgete:

pcmdaily.com/images/mg/2015/profiles/c2hc/zum.png


Our Squad:

Andrey Zeits (77Hl)
Patrik Sinkewitz (76Hl)
Zsolt Der (75Hl)
Adam Stachowiak (75Hl)
Michael Mørkøv (74Hl)
Markus Fahnert (74Hl)
Tomasz Marczynski (73Hl)
Jaroslaw Dabrowski (71Hl)


We come to this race with a top 5 goal from the sponsors, although our real goal is 17 points, which is the equivalent of a top 11. We will make an update following the results.

This is one hell of a CT hilly squad. Almost reminds on the Gazelle PCT squad.
17 points should really be possible.
 
jph27
I'd be surprised if promotion spots didn't cover the top 10, but roturn is right - you should easily get 17 points with that squad Wink

We finished 9th in the season rankings, despite failing our goal in Zuri Metgete we still had a great season and the sponsors are happy with our achievements and in the end promotion spots were extended to at least ninth place meaning we will compete in the Pro Continental Tour next season!

We achieved two of our 5 season goals this season, Andrey Zeits had a great performance in Poland to take our most important goal, although aside from that we had some of our worst performances in goal race (*Cough*Zuri-Metzgete*Cough*) and unfortunately didn't complete any of our other race goals.

The 2015 season was accompanied by some great photographers and some stunning photographs, still we have to thank tsmoha for the beautiful image of Adam Pierzga attacking his breakaway companions on the way to the teams first win on stage 9 of the Tour de Langwaki:

The riders are rated by how much they earned there wage this season, despite this not being a definitive ranking, however it gives a good idea of how the top riders earned their wage, which is key to 2016 rider renewal choices. Still the award of best rider of the season came down to three riders, Zsolt Der (Giro del Capo and Tatranska Klasika wins), Adam Stachowiak (Amazing Tour of Norway performance and topping the Point per Wage rankings) and Kristian Sobota (Amazing Consistency in sprints).

The Netia Rider of the year is:

The Serbian champion dropped from the Pro Tour team Wikipedia to the Continental division this season and enjoyed amazing success highlighted by winning the Giro Del Capo and Tatranska Klasika. Making Zsolt Der the first ever Netia Rider of the Year.

Here are some photos of him in action:

We thank all the organisers of the MGUCI and the other team managers for the enjoyable and great season.

Andrey Zeits to leave Netia
Rumours are beginning that Andrey Zeits could leave Netia - Norske Skog this season, the team manage quote "He [Zeits] was amazing for us this season but the sponsors aren't interested in having a Kazakh or non-European rider on the team." The news doesn't come as a surprise, despite winning the Tour de Polonge, the team isn't likely to need him it PCT and it seems the continental division is best for Zeits. None of this information has been confirmed, but it's likely another continental team will have a great hills leader next season.

Hahahhah totally won the polish duel Cool

Seriously though I've decided it's good to see you getting a spot in PCT, so we together can develop polish cycling into a new era! Good luck with your transfer season.

Last transfer season we shared the polish market, doubt that will come to show this year and we're gonna step each other on our toes Smile Good luck!

We choose to ignore 'unimportant' pieces of information. Pfft Congrats though, we'll beat you next year. Grin Pfft

Thanks, we just need to get two Polish PT teams and eventually become the greatest nation in the MG Grin Pfft

Yeah, we'll probably have some problems this season, but then again there aren't that many good Polish free agents in the db pre-reneweals (Niemiec, 72Mo, 72TT has the highest overall) so hopefully won't be too bad, still who knows what will happen in transfers Pfft. Good luck in the transfer season! Grin
