Most certainly report it to the licensing authority, they may (rather than 'will) take it more seriously than the Police.

Either that or they are respecting other teams and not trying to unsettle their riders ?
He's still under contract, the others they are signing aren't, think that tells you something, they are not going to fork out for riders
Should go for Taaramae, probably one of the best up and coming kids on the block IMHO.
Well i expect these five to be signed up just shortly
Gabriel Rasch
Matt Goss
Mark Cavendish
Kanstantsin Sivtsov
Bernhard Eisel
with 2 other being followed from the junior ranks
Jacopo Guarnieri (liquigas)
Bob Jungels
Those are the names on the grapevine being chucked about
If as expected they sign Cav, I wonder what the timing of that might be? Day after the TOB ends? On the plus side, everyone is in London, on the minus side, it could distract from the Worlds. So after Copenhagen, then? Come to think of it, would make sense from Cav's point of view not to sign anything till after that, and if he's won the rainbow jersey, slap on another x% to his salary
Still no Svitsov as of yet
So they have
Richie Porte
Sergio Henao
Luke Rowe
Salvatore Puccio
thats the signing so far, as far as i know, there are 4 more signing in the offing to be announced soon
I want to see Jens Voigt
he's outta contract at the end of the season and this new Radioschleck team it looking very full
Mentioned a few days ago about Sky training with a Saxo bloke and people thought it was Johnny Bellis - now i look at his face it was Porte...heard nowt about Svitsov but Sky are getting rid of 11 and only signed 4 so far.
Good news. Sistov from HTC tomorrow
