    The three Irish journey men are doing a terrible job in the TDF at the minute. 3 top ten finishes in as many days (2 individual and 1 TTT). They really are doing a great job of making up the numbers…...:rolleyes:

    I guess you're not a cycling fan, otherwise you'd know how teams work.

    Really.......?

    Maybe you should put yourself forward....

    Did your mother never tell you "if you cant say something nice, dont say anything at all..."

    Or maybe you are bored and just sh1t-stirring.

    For those getting upset the OP is taking a stab at this.

    A bleedin reference or link would have been handy, this isn't the clairvoyant board for jaysus sake.

    Hmmm..........point taken, but we cant all read everything every day. Maybe a link to the stupid RTE article should have been referenced in the OP, or smilies used........

    Think it's safe enough to say it's sarcasm. And next time, no name-calling, inferred or otherwise. Report the post if you have a problem.

    Probably should have included this to be fair for those that didn't pick up on the sarcasm....:)

    Just for the sake of clarity, I totally get how teams work in cycling.....;)

    Ugh that article made my eyes bleed. What a bunch of muppets.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,018 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    Quick, someone ask Froome or Contador for their thoughts on the Munster championship... hurling or football you ask? Does it matter?

    I don't mind them not knowing, I do mind them making insulting remarks like calling the lads journeymen. 99% of the pro peloton won't achieve what Dan Martin has. Journeyman my eye.

    Martin is ranked in the top 10 nearly every flippin year. How hard would it have been to look that up ffs.
