This is what Froome's girlfriend said today



It seems she's scared ;)

Wow, she said that? I love it! It's like watching the prelude to a boxing match or an UFC fight.

It would be great fun to get a response from Oleg. Perhaps from one of the girlfriends on the Tinkov team. Let's see what they have to say about that.

She's really going crazy. I think a bit blinded by love or the shine she was able to get due to Froome. Whatever.

However, some posts of Conti Fans here and on Twitter since he's back on form are also borderline idiotic and disrespectful. And I say that as a huge fan of Alberto. The excitement to see him back on top seems to make it hard to keep calm :D

And better yet, she tweeted it to Tinkov. I cant wait for a twitter fight between those two nut cases :D

I think the most important stage for AC from now until the tour, must be the tt in Dauphine. He can't be far of his 09 tt form if he is going to really take on Froome for the yellow jersey, thats for sure

A 10km TT won't tell us much at all though.

Dauphine without a longish tt this year? ouch. I guess we'll have to wait for the tour then :eek:

Right at the end of the Tour, which means that whoever is fresher between Contador and Froome will almost certainly win, irrespective of TT form.

Freshness is very important indeed, But ac could still loose a couple of minutes to Froome if he doesn't gets a grip on his tt (Personally I think he will do a very good tt, which he does every time in the gts when he is in top shape eg. tour 09, giro 11)

Maybe an "ex" doper can win the tour this year, at least he would be qualified to answer all the doping questions

That's un-classy of her. You can tell what type of person she is by how she acts. I can understand the love for Froome but to use this kind of language to your opponent, we shouldn't even bring her tweet to this thread. She isn't not worthy and deserve to be in this thread. Poor Froome to stuck with un-classy, uneducated woman for the rest of his life. I don't what is worst for froome to get his *** kicked by Contador to marry this b-itch :D

"Ex"-doper".. I see what she did there. :D She implies that he is still on drugs. Can we get a response from Tinkov?

To be fair what she is saying isn't terribly unfair (he is an "ex" doper). It's an unprovoked and unnecessarily provocative statement that doesn't cover her, and indirectly Froome, in much glory. But it's her twitter feed/timeline and she can do with it as she pleases :p

I do get the sense that even if Froome isn't "worried" she is definitely on edge about the Tour :D

I agree that it doesn't need to be in this thread. It's already in a bunch of other threads anyway. Breaking news: attention-hungry person needs attention. Film at 11.

The tweet was about Alberto,and these news are from girlfriend of Alberto's biggest rival.I dont see a reason why this shouldnt be in this thread.
;)
Anyway you have to admit that the twitter fight between Michele and Oleg would be mighty awesome:D
I know they are crazy,they have very rude behaviour and are stupid(in couple of aspects) but I like it just for fun:D

They're just feeding off each other's need for attention. It's a match made in twitter heaven. :(

Sometimes you can choose a highroad you know. That's what a classy person would do. Nuff sayin'.. no more about her from me

I don't think Froome is afraid of anything (other than BILHARZIA). Didn't the wattages indicate not even 2009 Contador would have beat him last year?

How do you know Froome's wattage last year was higher than Contador's 2009? Do you have any link to the comparison article?

No way third week Froomster would match AC 09 in the mountains. AX-3 and Ventoux were impressive though. But atleast Ventoux Andy and AC has gone up the mountain just as fast (I know there is a differnce in the lenght of the stage etc. etc...)
