[May 6] Romanian
gymnastics team status
Questions about Andreea
Munteanu, from our Forum:
Does anyone know if she is coming back??? Or she is basically
done? joman8390
I hope she get it done and will be a part of the Beijing
team. She was so unlucky to get injured right before Athens.

The new Romanian gymnastics team head coach Nicolae
Forminte show much more
respect for fans (and media), also by answering to their questions.
(Well, it's easy to be nicer than some former coaches -you
can read dictators- which previously owned the team
and have had installed -like Ceausescu did- an iron curtain
around Deva ; only their "friends" could get updates).
Back to your question, here is an update for the whole
Romanian gymnastics team; many thanks to the head coach of
the team, which shows respect for all the Romanian gymnastics
fans.
