There was another problem with coast. The boss of the company coast wanted
to do everything himself, but had no experience in cycling and in the end
the team was destroyed.

But don't forget Once won't be there next year and some other sponsors
said that they won't engage in cycling sports anymore. If you wan't to set
up your own time, there is a good chande in 2004

Yeah Banesto are reportedly also calling it quits. It's worrying that so
many sponsors are deciding not to continue there connection with
cycling.
