I am 100% behind the guys but I really fail to see the effects of the ‘chipping away’. They gain a bit but lose it again straight away. Last time I looked they were 190 miles behind Groupama??

It looks like the last 24hrs have not been particularly good to us.. so much for the ‘west is best’.. I am sure I am sharing the frustration of everyone involved.. but as Mickel says, chipping away just ain’t cutting it.
