I've turned it over previously and not bothered with it, but the format is very watchable. Their own version of Cricket's 20/20 with the PDC's pissed up punters. Doubt it will reinvigorate the sport to previous glories tho.

Rictchie Porte restores the natural order on the TDU with a good win on a great stage, Gerrans overhauls Cadel, 1sec in it with a sprint stage left.

The whole game is bent, if you dont start from that premise you shouldn't be a punter imo, any bet i do (especially all-weather betting) i would try & factor in when they are likely to be even trying. From crooked trainers, bent jockies, a betting industry that doesn't even legally have to stand over a bet, regularly get horses pulled from races so they dont have to pay EW.

Well played Barney & hell slap it up the Bookies.

Went back & watched the horsey one again. Thon bridesmaid is such a roide

Sasoon after Mata? Dont panic.

Jesus, Cadel's in some nick, great stage win and looks the TDU winner. Left Richie Porte for dead on the Queen stage major climb - both targeting the Giro too.

Worth a go Olly, popular in some parts of scotland.

It's easy to criticise boys (fun too). Some red haired/headed fella has put his heart & soul into it & deserves a lot of credit.

O'Neill's always stealin Mackle's thunder, not on.

See Letterkenny? Man Philip Deignan made his debut for Sky in the TDU warm up crit.

Have read that stuff, but would gate takings, sponsorship & TV money be enough in their own right? Hardly?

Maith thu Uladh!

How do Ulster pay the big named players like Peinaar, Aofoa & the like? Are they profitable in a business sense or is there a sugar daddy picking up their wages?

Wouldn't be the first time. Could be a blessing in disguise if it does, it they publicise the shit out of it & embarass Stormont into action. New laws  eventually came from the Tony Martin / shooting intruder / standing your ground / protecting your home debacle in England years ago.
