No they won't.
In the yesterday newspapers I read an interview with Madam President (Albenka) and she said that the Federation will hold them responsible for that act, because it's absolutely irresponsibly to split 3 weeks before the Euros. Well, maybe Albena didn't say exactly "irresponsibly" but that was the sense.

So, Bulgaria will have only Albena and Max!

And is there anybody else in dances in Bulgaria?

Yes. Albena's sister - Ina Demireva and Yuri Kurakin, but they're still Juniors, and Lora Semova & Dimitar Lichev who are Novices or Juniors, I'm not sure.
Maybe we'll have 1 competitor in women competition. As for men - I don't know.

Sonia Radeva, no?

I think so. She competed in Grand Prix series, so maybe she'll go at the Euros, if everything's OK with her.

Well, girls,

this is a complicated story
I really can't understand what made their coach convince them or rather the boy to do this!

Hope, Stanimir will be able to find a "paying" partner, but I'm afraid, his level of skating is not that good as all those Russians had or have (I mean, Petukhov, Chernushev)

Well, no, of course not, but there are American girls who are desperate, absolutely desperate, and they can't find an American partner because there just aren't enough boys. So they are sometimes willing to take someone who is not as good, and hope they improve.

Also, sometimes these girls are not so good either.

Oooh, Madame President, laying down the law. But she's absolutely right of course, the federation can't be pouring money into these skaters only to have them quit right before big events. You make a commitment, and you follow it through. Otherwise... maybe there'll be consequences. The federation cannot build itself successfully if the skaters that it commits to, don't commit to them in return.

Patinage artistique Joubert blessé au pied

ven 16 fév, 16h45

Petit coup de frein dans la préparation des Championnats du monde, qui se dérouleront du 19 au 25 mars à Tokyo, pour Brian Joubert . Le champion d'Europe en titre s'est en effet blessé au pied droit jeudi soir à l'entraînement.
«Au départ d'un saut (un triple Lutz), la lame de son patin gauche a décroché et a traversé la chaussure droite», a indiqué son entraîneur Jean-Christophe Simond. Brian Joubert a été transporté à l'hôpital de Poitiers, où il a reçu plusieurs points de suture sur le tarse du pied droit. Le Français, qui peut marcher avec une chaussure non lacée, s'est vu prescrire un arrête maladie de dix jours, mais il attend de voir son état de santé lundi pour prendre une décision.

Is he??? What a pity.. I hope he makes it to Japan, because it's more interesting than Steph to compete alone...not alone...but without his rival

Yes, Brian has a foot injury. I think his left blade pierced through his right skate and cut Brian's foot when he was attempting a triple lutz. I hope he recovers soon!!!

Quoting Lana!

YESSS!!! YOU ARE SO RIGHT!!! I hope sooo...

The fact that Lambiel has a new SP is a reason for his fans to be optimistic about his presence in Japan. I admit it´s going to be rather interesting Lambiel , Joubert and Lysashek .
