MTN Team to Fire Riders.


Banji

Recommended Posts

Seems like the Mal and Nic Golden era is coming to an end.

 

Douglas will exercise his right to remove Malcolm, Nic and Neil from the team on the basis aof a breach of contract. The employment contract between MTN and its riders specificaly states no negotiations between the riders and other teams may take place before October each year.

 

Douglas has confronted all the riders mentioned above and they have admitted to trying to setup a new team.

 

It looks as though the three may leave without causing a stir. If not, Douglas may exercise his right to dismiss them on grounds of breach of contract. 

 

Word is that their new team may be ready to go sooner than next year.

Oooookay. More teams = better racing. A lot of MTN's results this year came from other riders - Thomson, Taylor, Van der Merwe, Evans, George, Nhlapo, Van Heerden (although, in case of the men's road team, the three mentioned above certainly must've played their part in getting the others in a winning postition). As long as this whole fiasco doesn't scare away MTN as a sponsor.

 

Imagine SA Championships next year... No squad with 11 strong riders dominating teams with 3 or 4 strong guys. Maybe the road race will be more interesting than the TT (unlike this year).

Banji is part of the MTN clan hence he knows the inside stuff and rides the EtE in the mornings as well.

The question is what is Banji trying to achieve by starting rumours or leaking sensitive information. Sounds like a jilted lover to me
