Team Tactics & crazy Italians

[runninboy]

Apparently Nicholas Roche got alot of abuse from the Italians when he was is the break the other day. Unfortunately everyone was talking about CAV Thor & George.

Either the Italians have something against Nocentini, or they are pure idiots.
Apparently they thought Roche should have helped pull, WTF???

Anyway he is pretty feisty and took matters into his own hands

Good for him. Saw him interviewed on Eurosport yesterday and he came across a pretty down to earth guy.

It does seem as though the Italian riders and media have a problem with Nocentini. He's been largely ignored despite wearing yellow for the majority of the race. Odd.

Maybe because Nocentini rides for a French team instead of good ol boy italian team like leakee gas or Lam pray.

Anyway i am glad Roche stood up to them, grabbing an italian by the throat in front of the italian media is pretty ballsy.
Of course they didn't treat his dad so well either,
i imagine he skips the Giro next year
