How has his charity concealed his drug abuse?
What do you think about the above point on a serious note??



I have no idea why I said his charity concealed his drug abuse other than I may have been suggesting running a charity would make him 'untouchable', I was probably just trying to sound funny / provocative.I was hammered last night, didn't even remember posting. When I have black outs I check my posting history on all the forums I frequent in case I need to edit or apologise to anyoneRoll-Eyes


Erm on a serious note...I'm really not sure what to make of it all. Initially I thought it stank that he was being witch hunted but some of the stuff I've been reading recently makes me question if he deserves it or not. Ultimately I'm not well informed enough to make serious comment Grin

Perhaps he saw how Jimmy Saville used that tactic successfully

Claiming that anybody who disagrees with you is either naive, lying or stupid makes you look like a dick, especially when you're wrong. Stop it.


Ok then, Iv not had experience of testing ever in my life!

I just wonder what iv been doing since the age of 16, which just so happens to be 28 years being tested by WADA, firstly in athletics then PL. I might be a dick as you say but I certainly know how doping agencies work and if you look at the very limited funding WL has I think its safe to say a member of WADA banging on someones window at 6am just isnt happening.

No you don't and Yes it is. WL doesn't fund testing. UKS does.

This is common knowledge.

WADA was formed in 1999, 13 years ago next month. Oops.

Haha! But Jimmy wasn't that bad, when I was 8 he fixed it for me to milk a cow whilst blindfolded. Can't see what the fuss is all about. Ahem. Sorry. I'll get my coat.

You take the joke too far now big pete. Ha ha ha.

Sorry Dr and pete. It was a poor attempt of humour, and yes, the stories are true.

I have little interest of the argument of the morality of drugs in sport. In itself it will rumble on forever without absolute resolution, but just curious as to what peoples opinions are on when is enough circumstantial evidence enough to ban someone? The USADA report was enough to ban Lance, but not enough for the FBI to prosecute apparently. Seems odd.

As already mentioned, you can't have had 28 years of WADA testing, you clearly haven't looked through the tests conducted per year per sport numbers UKS used to routinely make available or you'd know just how much testing used to happen in WL, you apparently don't know - as evidenced - how doping agencies work, and in fact you're just plain wrong about what elite weightlifters in this country were routinely being put through just a few years ago. As you've been told already. Sigh.

I didn't say you were a dick, incidentally. I said the way you were posting made you look like a dick. You have the power to change that. Do try. I prefer not to ban people, on the whole.

Yeh and UKS only have a certain amount of funding to put foward for testing on WL, this is probably why tests are only carried at random and probably just at national level competitions.

Next your be telling me tests only cost £9.99 from Tesco's.

I know WADA hasnt been running for 28 years it was set up in 99, I mearly used WADA as it is the prefered anti doping agency used today and hadnt realised how the years had past, If I remember it was sometime aroung 99 when UKS formed to take over from BAF which if I remember had money problems, so seing my backgroung in abit of sport and now still competing plus owning a gym that has a very active field athlete, powelifters and weightlifters one thats been european champion I do know a little more than you think I do.

As your into your weightlifting Im taking it your be at Lemington Spa on the 10th Nov ? Id like to shake you hand.

Happy
