    Anyone else disgusted at the Sunday Times coverage of Dowsetts win in the paper today? It’s all about Wiggins, and basically slags alex off as a Armstrong lover. Talk about Sky bias. I am seething that a young Brit can do so well and be treated so poorly.

    🙁 🙁 🙁

    You see biased coverage of
    You see biased coverage of News Int/Sky’s own team and you’re surprised?

    Will Fotheringham is the cycling journalist I’d go to first for race reports, even if he doesn’t get the insider’s scoop on Wiggins. The days of the ST being a byword for gritty journalism ended years ago.

    Had never thought to check what Sky mouthpiece Orla says, I can’t imagine she’d add any great insight. I’d go for Will, Matt Rendell (@mrendell) and Richard Moore (@richardmoore73) any day.

    A revealing tweet by David Millar yesterday:

    “Congratulated 24yr old @alexdowsett this morning, was sad to see how disappointed he was about what @DavidWalshST had written about him.”

    As much as I am not a fan of Team Sky, I think the way Wiggo and Walsh are shooting their mouths off all the time is damaging the team and the other riders MUST be pissed off

    Yes, I had the same thought. I’m fairly sick of Sky Orla, too. Screechy voice and VERY limited cycling knowledge.
