And by "the coming days", CrueTrue means right now.
Hagen, Lovkvist, Barry and Henderson confirmed from Columbia to Sky.

Stapleton says "five or six" from Columbia to Sky. Did he make a mistake (most likely) or are there more?

On CQRanking it says Moris Possoni from Columbia also. So he might be the 5th

Great to see they signed up Downing  (The rest were more predictable - but good nonetheless)

Ekimov will be moving as DS to Radioshack as well (If that wasn't obvious).
Sorry if this is not "new" news.
Edit: Sebastien Rosseler (Quick Step) has also been linked with the Radio Shack squad, but a formal announcement has not been made.

His younger brother Tim is one of the most talented riders I've seen in ages.
Sure to join them next season.

He's just another guy who'll get on the GB Olympic program/go to Italy for a year. Literally following in his brothers footsteps. Needless to say, I think the Isle of Man are doing something amazing with their young riders, and whatever it is, it's working!

Tim Kennaugh's yet to progress into Under 23 races from Junior - give him a couple of years at Under 23 level first

And I could easily say Johan Le Bon will be the world's best cyclist one day, the way he's rides in youth categories.
As SN says, let's give youth riders some time and judge them when they're pro
As it's inevitable that about half of these great prospects will suck

Seriously? So many nutty british here and none have posted this yet? Fine, then....
A huge anti-climax is heading the press's way, such a shame, for the sake of being just not stirring the ****, oh look the Vuelta's on!

Why am I quoting this? Because Euskaltel signed him today

Seems he got some motivation. I think Fuji-Servetto is to say the least not the ideal team for a young (semi)talent. It is not the ideal team for any kind of rider actually. Feel sorry for that team though, and in particular for Matxim Fernandez.

Sky announced a trillion riders today. Possoni is there, as predicted.
Only one surprise: Kjell Carlström

Just to clarify Isso's "trillion": Edvald Boasson Hagen, Thomas Lövkvist, Kurt Asle Arvesen, Simon Gerrans, Juan Antonio Flecha, Kjell Calström, John Lee Augustyn, Greg Henderson, Lars Petter Nordhaug and Morris Possoni.

Scandinavian and English speakers. With 6 English riders announced yesterday. The full roster has yet to be confirmed, but the main British riders (the real big ones) are still under contract. Gotta sign someone ain't ya? (At least for a year). And plus, I reckon Downing's on for some results that will surprise the World.
