If another team buys Froome out of his contract at Sky [just like Sky did with Wiggins when he was at Garmin] then it will be Game-On and we will have a really special 100th edition of Le Tour in 2013. Guaranteed to have lots of mountain top finishes and we'll get some top & proper racing.

Contador and Schleck will be back in next year's TDF - Froome will become a moot issue.


So tired hearing about this clown now.

Hard work and determination don't pay off results unless you ride for sky. I don't see Froome jumping ship.

Contador will make 2013 intresting; we don't need Froome.

Not that I don't like Froome though, but this thread is a joke.

Yeah, actually having Froome there to pull Wiggins up the mountains might make the Tour more interesting versus Contador. Although he would deserve his own shot.

Vuelta was exciting with Froome and he was still on Sky back then. More MTF and Contador present is enough, a team switch is unnecessary.

Next year TDF will probably be very mountainous, so Sky should probably go for Froome, even though Wiggins will defend his title.

the question is does he really want to leave the SKY?
Did you even consider the possibility that he might be nobody once left the SKY?
