Mc Quaid " dumped "?

[AcademyCC]

Ha ha. McQuaid, Vino, Virenque, Ekimov and Nibali!! what a line up of honored guests.

 

[skippy]

Now reported that phat was collecting CHF450k each year , for the time he spent digging UCI into a hole !

Cookson is reported to be accepting CHF340k , as he attempts to create an environment where UCI will be respected !

Seems to be a case of being GOOD , will be cheaper ?

“I was emotional, because I love this sport,” Cookson recounted.

So what it is love or money?

plus 1 to cookson for this move, especially for providing long overdue transparency, although he couldve won me over completely had he gone down to say 200k.

Remember that is salary.

McQuaid also had a fairly healthy benefits package. Which included housing and subsistence. Be interested to know if Cookson took this with him as well.

But agree it’s a good gesture.

I wonder if Hein is still getting paid?

 

[Netserk]

lol. He is still getting paid more than the Danish prime minister...

edit: and the French (which is ~220.000 CHF)...

Obama is on 400USD. So McQuaid was earning more than the leader of the free world.

But Cookson is earning more the David Cameron. About 100k GBP more.

We all know president of cycling is much harder to do than running a entire country

Upon stepping down as Prime Minister Gordon Brown nobly took a pay cut for Cameron, with PM pay going from £194,000 to £150,000.Having set up his pre election pledge to cut ministerial salaries by 5% Cameron was then forced to take his own salary down to a humble £142,000.

Edit: I think income tax is around 20-25% in Switzerland. So he's doin' ok.

If he got no pay as PM Cameron would still not be short of a bob or two

If Cookson gets to work and executes well, that money will be seen as a solid investment.

So show us you are worth it, Cookson.

Do you type with a glass of whisky in one hand?

You make literally no sense.

Is that a reference to family and connections or corruption.
