It was not a personal attack. It was a response to a comment.

Good luck.

Good luck.

To be called "elitist, narrow minded and needlessly hateful"

is not personal ?

" about a guy just doing a job" whom i "have also rounded on for no sound reason."

..I see only one attack on this thread and its not towards the others who have expressed strong opinions on broadcasters but only toward me


You keep your luck ...you need it

All right pal calm down. There's no bias against you. Read your post again and then read mine again.

Having said this, Kelly seems to genuinely enjoy working with him so he can't be all bad.

So any action on the road yet?

No TV until the last 30km or so, fécking tennis.

Tinkoff seem to be trying to get riders up the road to attempt a "Nibali" according to the cycling new ticker.

Hopefully, we might get the last two climbs on TV and the GC guys will have kept their powder dry until then but... Contador might have a crack on the Madeleine and the thing blown apart by the time we see live coverage.

Starting very early!!!

12:56:58 GMT
It will now be up to Sky and BMC to chase to protect the GC positions of Froome and Porte.

12:55:51 GMT
Also in the move is Fabio Aru, plus Jesper Hansen (Tinkoff), Joaquim Rodriguez (Katusha), Dayer Quintana (Movistar) and Bjorn Thurau (Wanty).

12:55:11 GMT
As we suspected the Col de la Madeleine has inspired an attack from Contador!

12:54:07 GMT
Here we go, the break hits the Col de la Madeleine!

Vuelta 2012 all over again. Its up to ASO to dictate when the race goes live and its locked in with schedulers some weeks out but jaysus you think they would have some sense that this would kick off early in the stage.

Only one hour to go til live coverage. Frown.

Andre 3000

Contador who's joined by Aru, J-Rod and baby Quintana have 30 secs on Froome and the main group.

i can never understand why they cant just put up the feed from the race on eurosport palyer. they can show any number of poxy tennis matches over 8 or 9 channels but can never show the cycling till their broadcast goes live. surely the tv cameras on the road are broadcasting and relaying pics from the start of the race and not plodding around the peleton till someone in a tv control room tells em to turn their cameras on

at1withmyself

Contador caught by Sky before the summit of the madeline, wonder will he go again. I think he was hoping froome would chase and that would break the sky train but didn't work this time

neris

its not quite carling the CDD but the end of the tour de suisse TT is on the uci channel on eurosport player
