BEITOSTØLEN (adressa.no): Today, Petter and Tomas Northug for championship gold in team sprint at Beitostølen. Behind the scenes is planning the next season already in full swing.
On Thursday night announced Adresseavisen that Tomas Northug is about to be scrapped from sprint national team, after a lamentable season marked by much illness. This despite the fact that he both won a race in the World Cup and came to the World Cup finals in the sprint last year.

Løfshus: – Set of trouble
– I will certainly carry some sessions with him and then I get a little control themselves. I think it suits me well, said Tomas Northug Adresseavisen Thursday.
Vidar Løfshus confirmed Thursday to Adresseavisen that 25-year-old is among the runners who are in danger of being scrapped.
– He has ended up in the group that is thin on, along with Chris Jespersen, Simen Andreas Sveen and Paal Golberg. They have not had results this year. Tomas had a World Cup victory and came to the World Cup final last year, but it was a short impression top, to use that term, says national team.

– Blew up not sound barrier
Both Petter Northug and trainer Stig Rune Kveen stand ready to accept Northug with open arms if he should be scrapped. Simultaneously sends brother Petter a stab to the national leadership.
– If you look at the other runners, such as Simen Andreas Sveen, so he got the one year, unless he blew the sound barrier, says 30-year-old Adresseavisen.
Sveen was allowed to continue on the national team this season even if he did not deliver convincing results in last year’s World Cup season.
