    Due to bad results apparently ha ha

    Not the forthcoming doping report from Denmark of course, interesting timing as Contador started off poorly.

    There is another very plausible reason, personality clash, falling out. etc. Oleg appears to have a strong personality and i can easily see him rubbing people the wrong way sometimes.

    Just look at Abramavich at Chelsea, he’s binned many managers for not getting results. These Russian millionaires just use sport as a play thing imho.

    Is there any allegedly in it? I was under the impression that Riis has stated he doped?

    Do we really want cycling to go the same way as Soccer where team managers are fired on a whim by the owners???

    The simple explanation is
    The simple explanation is that he is being sacked for a lack of results by a team owner who is impatient and who has spent rather a lot of money on some highly regarded riders.

    Was the contador comment
    Was the contador comment really needed….. there are loads of riders not yet in form, he has a long and difficult season ahead so is biding his time. There is literally no point in slinging poo at people with no actual decent backing.
    don’t get me wrong, if he is doping then throw the book at him, but with no even slight suspicion about it….is there are any point :W
