Support is what he needs

When Iban had decided to part ways with Euskaltel-Euskadi, he got a question from a DEIA reporter: "Are you afraid of what the Euskaltel fans will do, now that you`ve changed teams?". Iban paused, before saying: "Yes, a little bit. I don`t know how they will react to all this." Well, I`ve got one message for all you Euskaltel fans out there: Do not treat him badly, support him! Leaving a team after seven years, and after having brought them so much success, is no sin. Just spending seven years with the same team in itself is astonishing. Iban will need all the support he can get. I encourage all of you to support him just as much as you did when he was with Euskaltel. That`s what he deserves, and that`s what he needs.
