    Funny how Father Vaughters was quite happy to try to get into bed with Big Mat up to a few weeks ago. But for some contractual cocking around, this would have been have been a Garmin Slipstream problem, not just a Team Big Mat one- JV has dodged a bullet on this one and should keep schtum. It just draws attention to the type of company he was prepared to keep in order to get funding.

    There's none so pure as a reformed hoor.

    It wouldn't be his problem at all. a) he was only dealing with the sponsor, not trying to merge teams and b) the doctor left the BigMat team a year ago.

    You will keep getting facts in the way of a baseless accusation of an event that never took place.
