Are you really telling me that Kurt Asle Arvesen and Servais Knaven haven't been clean for their entire career!?! :mad:

I only really know of one DS and he must have a poor memory if he did sign the magic letter

Well Bobbins you are the first to come forward with proper evidence of Team Sky doping!

But maybe I am mistaken and you are only alleging something anonymously on the internet and are not prepared to back up what you have said.

If I am not mistaken the good news is you can still call UK Anti Doping 0800 32 23 32 to get it sorted. I see you may be in Spain in which case it may be a toll call.

Let us know how it goes.

Cheers

Uhhhh no. He simply believes one of the DS's doped during his career, despite signing the magical letter. Nothing to do with evidence of Team Sky doping.

You're welcome.

Well Wiggo I wasn't talking to you and lets wait for Bobbins to reply before we put words into his mouth.

But given your history this is unlikely.

Trust me, it's plain English comprehension. Noone's putting anything in anyone's mouth.

Nice try with the personal attack, though.

Bradley Wiggins has gone with a beard. I always get the feeling with Wiggins that everything he says or does is intended to mock the observer.

If I had a weak chin like Wigans then I would have beard too.

I'm pretty sure but if you think any call to UK anti doping is worthwhile then you are mistaken. I just like observing the hypocrisy of Brailsfraud.

Check who Cioni rode for in his career. Some major teams with major dopers.

Only if you were willing to ride ten years on the road without distinction then juice yourself to the eyeballs.

Can't have it both ways, that Cioni was a doper and that doping didn't stop after 2004, or something like that.

Well, while he didn't go Pecharroman on us, I did expect him him to have better results after 2004.

But probably because people forgot to dope in May-June 2004.

I did like this exchange from the Cycling news interview with Tinkov

CN: So for you, it's zero-tolerance from now on, going forward?

OT: We'll have zero tolerance going forward. I can’t investigate the past, what Bjarne used to do, what others used to do. If Sky is really doing that with their zero-tolerance for the past, it’s a bit strange. How can you make sure that their riders and sports directors have never been involved in doping?

CN: They make people sign an agreement saying they were never involved in doping.

OT: That's bull****. Katusha pushed their riders to sign such a letter and then they had two doping cases. Anyone can sign anything for money. For me there was 100 per cent of doping in cycling 15 years so how can zero-tolerance for in the past work? If Sky want real zero-tolerance they should sign riders who were juniors now and have sports directeurs who are 20 years old, otherwise it's a joke.


I have said before I think the Garmin clean model is more realistic for the current teams, True ZTP should become the norm in maybe 10 years.

Sky has made a rod for people to beat them with, I don't think the financial people who insisted on it, really had a clue just how prevalent doping was.

It is just another sign that Sky are full of sh!t and lying.
