Always nice to arrive home to three new signings.
Steensen, Keinath and Sobota are now B&O riders

It's not like he's worth anything anyway. He'll be fired next season I'm just filling up the team, so I can start firing some of those ridicilious French guys. |

I was just searching for old eurosport previews that were done and it brought up all eurosport posts. And one was the list of people with release clauses, just curious but who has a release clause on eurosport. It just has question marks.

yeesh again Doddy came online but I still have a bid of 1.1 million (thats the offer plus his wage) and he still hasnt said anything in like 3 days, maybe there should be a rule about this because the standard rule is that I can not back out of the deal which I dont want to but I just wanna know whether he accepts it or not so that I can move on...

I would say that you should be able to withdraw a bid when its stood for 24 hours.
Also, I agree that at the moment its possible to abuse the rules by "ignoring" bids made on your release clause riders, thus postponing bidding...

Well dont get me wrong I really want Steegmans but im just wondering why Doddy hasnt responded these last 2/3 days while he has been online and has said that he wants to sell Steegmans...

I stumbled on this and I knew it at once, this must be Waghlon being happy after he signed Samai Samai, Kaggestad, Iman Suparman and some others...

this is just my opinion, but i feel that you should be able to withdraw bids, from for sale riders, if the seller has not accepted your bid. Because if he hasn't accepted your bid than you shouldn't be contractually obligated to maintain said bid.

What is the difference in 20 and 30 riders? Is it easier to fill in your race schedule with 30 and almost impossible with 20 or very very easy with 30 riders and fairly simple with 20? |

Well, at one point in June, theres 3 ProTour races - Tour de Suisse, Dauphine Libere, Vuelta a Colombia - you cant send full teams to all 3 with only 20 riders.
Id say the optimum number is around 25 but it can vary.
