  • Jose Been has now deleted her twitter account after she insinuated that because MvdP was in his boxers [he was asleep...] it was sexual assault. She inevitably got backlash for that and then quit in a huff.

    Shame, Jose Been is a sensitive soul, she takes a kicking frequently, and in many cases unfairly.
    Is it even true? What did she actually say?

    It is true, I saw the tweets. There was no direct accusation but she was focussing that an adult man had no case to answer when he was chasing teenage girls to their rooms in his underwear.
    I mean, out of context, she has a point, but she had ignored the context which is vital in the case.

    I also agree that I like her generally and do enjoy her commentary. I hope she comes back.

    At what point as a parent, when you see some random bloke in his boxers grabbing your teenage daughters, do you just go "Oi!" and beat the living daylights of the creep? Worry about "context" later.

    Full disclosure. I don't have kids. I don't like kids. I'd still like to think I'm going to smack the guy in a pair of boxers grabbing a young girl.

    That's the trouble with jumping to uninformed conclusions and assuming girls are innocent.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    The point you want to end up in court for assault ?

    I mean I'm sure it was pretty obvious that he was angry not trying to assault them sexually or otherwise (even if technically what he did may be classed as assault you know what I mean). Why not just ask why are you angry at which point it becomes a case of a stressed guy over reacting to bad behaviour rather than any kind of threat.

    It seems to me the police could and should have dealt with this by giving both MVdP and the girls and their responsible adults a stern warning to stop wasting their time.

    I thought that too, eh? A 13 year old girl vs a pro cyclist?

    My money's on the 13 year old girl!

    my money is on the bloke in boxers vs JimD tbh but I'll also lob a fiver on the 13 year old doing both of them over.

    I’ve yet to see any evidence that the parents were involved at any point prior to pulling compo faces for the media afterwards?

    Have they announced plans to sue vdP, the Dutch federation, UCI and hotel owners yet? It’s only a matter of time if not

    I'm sure they'll have asked. I think lawyers would probably tell them not to bother.
