@Mashjaja: I haven't read anything about it recently, but we all know that Armstrong and Bruyneel are interested, and the Schlecks get along well with Armstrong, so I still consider it as a possibility.

Farewell to the two ungrateful little bastards. Let us now look forward, Riis Cycling Team, has not peaked for the last time yet.
Rider comes and goes, but Riis is still standing strong:)
We are entering a new era, hopefully with Contador as Captain spiced with some young talent in true "Riis style".
The future is ours!
Good Weekend to all :)

I won't start insulting the Schlecks, they gave us some great wins and exciting moments and I'll probably still support them. I hope we'll have a team with Cancellara as the captain with young talents, Contador can stay away.

Well that's your choise sander, as i have explained earlier in this forum. Idont like people that lies and mislead people that has done about everything for their´s cycling career.
Idont even mine they change team, but why the lies??
People talk bad about a guy like Contador, but in my point of view he haven't done anything that make him a worse person than the Schleck brothers.
Support the guys if you like, im sure not gonna cheer for a bunch of liers, thats for sure.

OK, no problem. I had a hard time with those lies too, but what can you do about it...
About Contador, I just don't like him that much, don't ask me why, it's just a feeling I have about him.

well the one thing i can do is, not to support them further in their career that's for sure, not that it makes much of a difference.

Obviously I have missed the explanation / apology from Frank?
A text message to CN is how this got broken?
So all the statements re nothing decided were ******? |

| According to that source. Remember that nothing is for sure until there is a public anounement. (An sometimes not even then. Remember Caisse d'epargne thought they had a contract with Gustav Larsson, before he decides to prolong with Riis two years ago) |

Didn't you know the whole team is moving to Luxembourg    
http://www.tageblatt.lu/index.php/sports/43442.html
I find the whole PR situation laughable... Please can we leave... Then supposedly they steal the whole team???
I guess where there is media there is frenzy... and there is money to be made on copy. |

| Yeah.. Like last year, most of it will probably turn out to be just speculation and romours. Also about the riders going to this team. |

| So let me once again get this straight. Acording to that article Riis cannot afford Contador and Cancellara but they have no problem in believing that the new lux team can afford two Schlecks and Cancellara. Am I missing some journalistik insider mathclass somewhere. |

Has anyone considered that part of the Schlecks motivation to start another team was that Riis was negotiating with Contador.
Do you really think he just started contacting Contador a few weeks ago.
