Good move from City to go ahead and immediately suspend him.

Gonna agree with zzonked on this one, he's muslim but I don't think it prohibits him from using recreation drugs anyway. Just thinking of this is making me sleepy

The World Anti-Doping Agency define a specified substance as one that is "more susceptible to a credible, non-doping explanation".
So seems it may have been accidental?

I meant like something he's taken which had trace amounts of something banned in. It says it is more susceptible to a credible explanation so that's what I assumed that meant. Or maybe it just meant it wasn't performance enhancing, which is also a good thing.

Some medicines contain illegal substances (illegal in the sense that they are not allowed for doping reasons, as opposed to being a strictly illegal drug).
Which means he likely took something with a banned substance, something that maybe a doctor prescribed.

He's probably still going to get banned for some length of time regardless of what it was from. Just hope it doesn't hurt our season.

Paddy Kenny got 9 months for taking something accidentally, but that Hamilton player a few weeks back only got a 4 game ban. So who knows.

I mean, sure.. he won't have taken any drugs test in the past 7 years.. no chance.

I've never heard anyone calling him a druggie out of context before. And I didn't say he is always on drugs, just that we'll never know if he was at that point because he missed a test.Danny wrote:Unless you've forgotten, everyone calls him a druggie...ayvee1 wrote:We don't know that because he missed the test, unless you'd forgotten.Danny wrote:Yeah, let's forget the fact Rio wasn't actually on drugs.LFCJordan wrote:Rio and Kolo been having some drug fun.

Do fuck off. You honestly believe he forgot he had a drugs test? It's his career, ke knew the implications of missing one and obviously thought they were better than the implications for testing positive.

Why would we strip Tevez of the captaincy?
His sample A came back positive, he has to take a Sample B and then the ban will be set. It's possible he took something by accident which would result in a less lengthy ban. Can't really see him being one to take something recreational, considering he is very religious. If president is anything to go by, Paddy Kenny got given a 9 month ban for failing a drugs test. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/football_league/article6825367.ece
Man, Jakub Wawrzyniak got PRESCRIBED fat burners by his club's PHYSIO TEAM and got a year and a half.

This happened in Greece. Wawrzyniak was playing at Panathniaikos at the time, and was one of their star players.luke. wrote:No-one cares about Polish football Polska, you just proved how shit it is too

Regardless of whether it was accidental, he'll still be banned. It's his duty to ensure he's not taking something he shouldn't. He didn't.

Fine, star was pushing it, but he signed in January and was a revelation to Panathinaikos got right into first team and performed. Really sad the ban happened, it ruined his career, he could've made it big.Tom wrote:polska. wrote:This happened in Greece.
