Well, that's not going to work as from what I can see, she seems to do it - website etc. She'll be taking over as his agent soon, no doubt :?0 -
I reckon Uran's girlfriend should be taking to Twitter. He has looked stronger than Froome at several points in the Vuelta and has had to give up his chances to help his leader. To add insult to injury Froome had his team push on when Uran crashed a few kms from the finish costing him loads of places. I mean, it's not like that's what a domestique is supposed to do or anything is it?
I still reckon if Froome had persisted in those couple of attacks where he gapped Wiggins all that would have happened was he would have exploded like he did on Saturday and earlier in the race. He seems to have rushes of blood and pushes himself too hard - he should be thanking Wiggins for holding him back as he might have lost 2nd place otherwise. He needs to lose the GF - it's even worse than her being a Saffa, she's half Welsh!! If she carries on I wonder if it might put some other teams off signing Froome that would otherwise be interested, no matter what goes on inside a team (and there's bound to be the odd issue) it should be left there and not aired in public.0 -

Don't think I can ever tell someone who to see, but she has nothing to do with the direction of the team.+++++++++++++++++++++

So something like Wigan then?"In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"

No, not like Wigan - that has never been rescued!0

Yeah, you didn't dedicate a year of your life to deconstructing comments like that and seeing what damage such discourse creates :P.
Anyway.

It's like some car crash reality TV programme. She's fairly hateful, but mildly entertaining."I have a lovely photo of a Camargue horse but will not post it now" (Frenchfighter - July 2013)0 -

It's a good insight into what Froome is discussing behind closed doors.
Can't see why as fans we mind this!0 -

The whole point is that you can discuss these things behind closed doors. I regularly bitch and moan about friends and work contatcs to my Mrs, but she doesn't repeat them verbatim on twitter. She's complaining about Wiggins poor conduct (apparently not thanking team mates), but by putting that out on twitter she's behaving just as badly herself.
I would hope that Chris Froome cringes at some of the things she says, considering how hard he tries to be diplomatic in his interviews.
it's all a bit OK magazine/Loose women for my liking. I'm interested in a bit of racing gossip, but personal sniping is'nt really of interest to me. I appreciate that we are all different, if it floats your boat then that's fine."I have a lovely photo of a Camargue horse but will not post it now" (Frenchfighter - July 2013)0 -
I have to admit, I enjoy the insight.
Having said that, I'm sure we've all said things to loved ones in confidence and would feel massively betrayed if they decided to then broadcast it on social networks... She doesn't seem like the worlds best girlfriend.You live and learn. At any rate, you live0 -
she could have been talking about Brailsford, non?0
-
According to Richard Moore's book "The Sky's the limit", Froome's salary went from £100k and about to go out the door to " a rumoured £1.2m". Maybe a couple of shopping trips are in order when he is finished work.0

Rumours Wiggins is yet to thank any team mates or staff regarding his Tour victory, and that things behind the scenes are not rosey and that they could implode at anytime.
Any truth in it?
Sack the useless idiot now. :roll: - rolleyes aimed at twitter losers and not the OP.You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.0 -

Not from following that Twitter timeline that was posted, no.
She's a bit of a cracker though to be fair but I suspect if you had a relationship with her you'd be worrying what she would put on Twitter about you when you broke up.0 -
