Transfers and Rumours 2012 > 2013

[Parrulo]

Wow never knew. What did he phd in?

like roundabout said, economics, but he also studies the weather (as in weather prediction) and some other stuff.

you can see from his interviews that he is extremely intelligent

 

[will10]

iirc one of the reason why he stayed in colnago all this time was so he could focus on his PhD ( which he finally finished last year) so it wouldn't surprise me to see him finally make the jump to a WT team.

Well there's also the fact that at Colnago he can ride the Giro and the whole Italian calendar, and be a leader wherever it suits him. Would that be the case at AG2r, Vacansoleil, Saxo Bank or Gamin? Not sure.

 

[Samson]

In Ag2r and probably in Vacansoleil he probably would.

 

[ElChingon]

Its the formula from UCI so,

takes forever to do

So any new team is automatically left out till they race for a year according to that equation unless they hire the top riders out there and can still barely qualify to get enough points as their 2011 Points = 0 (or previous years points).

 

[Ferminal]

That's just the "team" points which make up minor fraction of overall points. Rider score is much more important.

It's quite easy to get in with the right signings (not necessarily big/expensive ones) a la GEC.

 

[Forunculo]

Probably Dani Navarro will be in a different team next year. He did an interview and about his future he told that he was only focused to help Alberto now.

Unlike our friend Noval, he has renewed one year more

That suggests the rumours about him going to Euskatel could very well be true

Unlike our friend Noval, he has renewed one year more

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

No he won't. He'll go to a team where he can actually compete in quality races. (Unlike Coldeportes)

you understand nothing of it

 

[Kokoso]

What will Kreuziger say now? If this is true no way he will be captain in the giro for saxo next year,

Kreuziger > Pozzovivo

 

[Cimber]

There are rumours on a Danish forum and the SBTB forum that Arroyo will join SBTB.

 

[User Guide]

Another day another 15 saxo-tinko rumours
Whos rumoured to get the axe at saxo?

Well, I would have said Noval but I'm not quite sure if he would just eat the axe.

Domenico POZZOVIVO (Colnago CSF) -----> AG2r La Mondiale, Vacansoleil, SaxoBank, Gamin

as alwasy he will stay with colnago I imagine

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

kreuziger > pozzovivo

lol



.......

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Kreuziger > Pozzovivo

Are you serious?

 

[Netserk]

Are you serious?

No he isn't. He is a Kreuziger fanboy with a big F

 

[Cimber]

According to Tour of Utah commentators Dombrowski have signed with Sky.

So Liquigas are losing most of their climbers? They might as well become the new HTC now and focus on Sagan, Viviani, and Moser. They really should have signed Aru or Dombrowski to replace Nibali. Oh well...

velo-club does infact link Dombrowski with Liquigas

Cannondale link could be key there, if we're going to see more Americans at Liquigas then Dombrowski seems as good a place to start as any.

I hope that's true. He's a great talent and at Liquigas he'd certainly be given a lot of freedom.

Rumours are easily created.

Does that mean this whole rumour thread should be deleted or reduced to a "confirmed transfers only thread" in your opinion?

No, but the fact that Velo Club links Dombrowski with Liquigas as a rumour doesn't make it more true. I'd rather see some foundation (i.e. real source) for a rumour.

 

[Cimber]

The nature of the word "rumour" means that its something that is unsure, not a fact. Velo-club is imo one of the more credible sites (regarding not making up stuff), but ofcourse there is no guarantees, cos, well, its a rumour

But feel fere to browse the internet or contact velo-club for more info. But dont ask me to stop posting rumours from that or similar sites.

But u are absolutely right, rumours are easily created, and ofcourse we would all prefer managers to confirm deals or negotiations, but we just have to live with less. Thats how "silly season" works in most sports, and its one of the things that makes "silly season" fun tbh.

I did not ask you to stop posting rumours. In fact, I think rumours can be interesting. I just wanted to say it is a very weak rumour. Velo Club is a credible website, but unless it is French info, they don't know more than you and I do.

They probably do know more than me and you. I didnt know of that rumour before I read it at veloclub after all (0; And am sure they got more sources than me and you.

But ye its a weak rumour, alot of rumours are, and ye weak rumours is a part of the silly season fun
