A thought for Rio Ferdinand

[Mendoza]

2 greek atheletes have MISSED mandatory drugs tests
what will their ban from the sport be. 8 months.........?

Kentaris - the current olympic mens 200m champion
and another female sprinter

have they made an example of rio or will these 2 runners just miss the olympics. who knows. there needs to be consistency across the world for all sports

they did not refuse the tests, they just missed them

It is unlikely to be consistant as two different bodies administer the punishment.

IOC / FA

Unfortunately, once all the cheats have been banned, I could probably win the 100 metres .

Modern day athletics is f***ed.

I have to say I am fast losing interest in the Olympics and it has not even started bar the odd footie match.

I remember feeling absolutely cheated after watching Ben John son win in Seol '98 only to be found out a day later - the only good news was it seemed a one off.

Now days it would appear everyone is at it

I think around September 20th - live on Sky whenever it is.

they need to have one set of rules for all sports and stick to them

News reports say to complicate things they have beeninvolved in a motorbike accident. Is this the reason why they missed it or a convenient excuse to hide their deliberate abscence?
