In court he'll say: what Fabio Aru? My post was directed at fabaro1. Who sad anything about Aru?
Good thing he got that twitter account wrong
That would be absolutely hillarious.
But i fear nothing like that would be possible with a good lawyer on the other side...
I am sick of the world, where you cant say something without danger of being eventually sued. They say it is for freedom, but actually that is quite fascist.
There is absolutely nothing fascist about that. He isnt just saying 'anything', he is accusing Aru of being a doper (without any evidence of course, but you would assume he better be 110% correct after posting something like that on fucking twitter) and basically putting his career in jeopardy by saying that
Lol what sort of evidence do you think he has? I mean, it's not like I doubt his secret private investigating skills, but I don't think he has used them this time.
The only evidence he has is he's been around for a while and knows when things are blatant enough to presume something like this. Also a pair of huge balls to speak out in this fashion.
I dont have any clue what so ever and don't have any insight in this case, my point just being, if you are bold enough to post shit like that on Twitter, it gotta be true, or else I would hope Greggy is in for some Italian justice.

The fact that henderson rode for SKY for two years.
Anyway, you dont speak against your employee, that would need much much bigger balls then saying that about other teams rider. But i see your point Spilak...

Point: Henderson wasn't tweeting accusations at Froome when he called in sick for Tirreno

I'm pretty sure he just pointed out that's Hendo on the picture, not that the picture itself is shocking or smth.

I'm not sure I would want to live in your ideal world. So anyone should be able to spout unsubstantiated nonsense and destroy people's reputations without repercussions?

In so far as Aru rides for Astana, probably the dirtiest team in the WT, so is about as open a target to speculation as anyone. Yes in an ideal world speculation about such a rider (same could apply to someone like Landa as well as loooong list of other riders) and banned practices would be possible. Guys like Aru may very well want to portray themselves as the clean future but he has a lot of work to do to prove that image. Equally i'm trying not to generalise and bash on Italy but his 'mentor' in Nabil and the rest of the Italian contingent at Astana quite a distance from beacons of cleanliness.

They are portrayed as the dirtiest team.

False accusations by another rider won't help.

No false accusations don't help and Henderson wasn't smart with that and baseless comments shouldn't be made. Perhaps i made my point badly so let me clarify:
Henderson made a boo-boo but only because he specifically tagged/mentioned Aru.
Imo the best way for Aru/Astana to combat the comment would be to release his clean Bio passport data, not to sue Henderson (let's be honest, Astana doesn't need help keeping it's bad image and Aru can portay a clean one in better ways than suing).
Don't particularly care if Greg is being hypocritical, hard to find riders without connections so i guess we should just discount all of them unless they hold a bag of said riders doped blood.

One thing for sure is that going out on twitter with that is a fucking stupid idea by Henderson and it doesnt even matter how strong is your evidence you dont go to social media with that. It doesnt help anyone. |

I'm sure Greg, who left Sky at the end of 2011, was involved in that But yes Aru isn't the first rider to be dropping out of races to sickness late on, and neither are Sky, and both will be far from last

Froome isn't a classic contender, did he even race?
Nibali went up the road in Amstel because he doesn't have as much punch on the short climbs as other riders, so he went from further out (plus, Nibali doesn't train much during the winter, he isn't quite in form yet).
It's just that these races don't suit them. |
