There was an article of Cycling Weekly about how foreign media outlets have barely mentioned the whole Sky story, citing how complicated it is, that it involves a package from six years ago, there are no positives so its a little meh to them generally.
And while its clearly not meh, its not the 'holing below the waterline' Kimmage thinks. I'm not sure about the whole sexism row, however there are women on the team that clearly flourished throughout the period, and while Cooke, Pendleton and Varnish felt hard done by, this is a wolrd class sports team, and part of me feels that to be world class you have to push everyone as hard as a you. And as I said with the Alex Ferguson analogy, you don't make an omelette without breaking dem eggs
