on The Astana team organisation chart. just looked. What is the difference between a general manager, a DS, an assistant DS and also soigneur?
When you read Bruyneel's twittering...looks semi retired from work to me
How many hours per week outwith actual races do any of them need to do , esp out of season? Do they have anything at all to do in the winter?
It's not a real job IMO ...being a DS I mean, whereas mechanics, bus drivers are

considering how little there is to be done outwith races it's a wonder sponsors cough up big salaries for 12 months of the year. I see Yates does his own landcsape gardening, or gardening service in winter...which is probably what Bruyneel has time for too. Just shows how quiet they are in winter. From what I see, the book a few plane tickets and drive along at 25mph barking orders and handing up bottles...little else

Don't forget they make calls to Pat McQuiad when dodgy looking french testers turn up at a drop of a hat asking for all manner of samples, this is a very important duty that cannot be handled by any old numpty0 -

I'd love to be a DS...piss easy, fly everywhere...and not have to race, see the world...ok slow drives behind races. Check up on riders now and then, make sure they're not slacking. What else? Call Thomas cook now and again to make sure the tickets are ok0
