Wasn’t there also a loud rendition of ‘happy birthday’ for Doull? Sounds like a proper angry mob (as was reported) :lol:

Yet at the start line in Doncaster on Thursday, Chris Froome, the team’s star rider, was greeted by boos.
The four-time Tour de France winner was trying to give an interview on stage while a small but vocal group of protesters shouted “Shame on you” and “Change your sponsor” while waving placards reading “Frack off Ineos, tha’s not welcome in Yorkshire” and “On your bike, Ineos”. They refused to shut up, despite being told to button it by fans keen for the race not to be overshadowed by the demonstration.
I was there and yes some people were protesting but it was not that vocal, more cheers than boos but thats the press for you
