Kristensen out, Juul returns.

The Newcastle Diamonds have made thier first team change of the 2005 season seeing Dane Claus Kristensen leave and fellow Dane and old Newcastle favourite Richard Juul come in in his place.

Team Manager George English said: "Claus was having major confidence problems and we tried all we could to hilp him out but he was on that downward spiral and going further and further down but only he could help himself."

"Glasgow have stepped into sign Claus and we wish him all the best for the future and hope he sorts himself out and enjoys the rest of the year."

"Bringing Richard in is a plus side for the club, he's always their to help out the other members of the team where he can and he's got a wealth of experience behind him."

Claus's departure is with immediate effect and will make his Glasgow debut against Somerset at the weekend whilst Richard is keen ton continue his influential career on the Diamonds and makes his home debut against Workington, Sunday 6pm start with the fans looking forward to his never say die attitude returning to the track, fighting for every point he can until the chequered flag is dropped.
