Re: Re:

Bobby was LRP's coach no?

just a good excuse for me to use the acronym LRP

He looks after Froome.

I presume you mean looked after as now he works for Olga

Is that what you read?

must be true then, no one ever puts anything apart from the complete truth in a press release.

In other news, FIFA aren't dodgy, the NSA don't illegally wiretap phones and road cycling is much cleaner than it ever was.....

 

[Dear Wiggo]

... and MIchele Ferrari no longer coaches pro cyclists...

and Julich really didn't dope again after 1998.

Really have no idea what you are on about here, Julich works for Tinkov, (or are you saying he doesnt but Tinkov just likes to put out that he does on his website) and as Tinkov pays Julich's wages Tinkov would not want Julich working for Tinkovs rivals, it is not difficult to understand.

All the other stuff about FIFA is just some red herring I guess a half-arsed attempt at ridicule or something like that

Re: Re:

fair point, del, so why not ask bobbins if he has intel suggesting Julich and Froome continue to be in a working relationship.
If so, next questions would be: does Tinkoff know and indulge? Do sky (or Froome) still pay Julich for the overhours?

All I'm saying is that Julich is the man behind Froomes transformation from donkey into derby winner, he lives close by to him and that they are still close. Tinkov hasn't bought Julich. His team pays him to do a job. non-competition clauses are non-enforcible as far as I am aware. Tinkov have approached one of the BC / Sky coaches to help Contador so they aren't that fussed about exclusivity.

interesting.
but not just any job. Head coach.
Knowing how Tinkoff is all about 'running a business', you'd expect him to not be happy if he'd find out about his head coach being 'intimate' with Froome, who after all is considered the main competitor of Tinkoff's head rider (AC).

Any idea why Julich is so sought after? Is he a good people's manager? Something else?

 

[Dear Wiggo]

I thought AC had his own coach?
