For once I'd love it if one of these 'famous' people just said 'so fuck I had a bit sniff and yes I had the time of my life'

 

[Lammi]

No surprise really
He's always been a party animal - out on the piss the night before matches and such.
Gifted player but no commitment

Ideally, not a sportsman.

Shame for British tennis and his career (obviously) but really stupid.

For me like if they want to do a bit coke etc in their spare time then let them, it's not like it's PED's where it's going to give them an advantage over their opponents.

My thoughts exactly. At 27, world's top 50 and on his best surface, he should be moving upward. As it is. he may be 31 or 32 when he's back, depending on the authorities.

Won his first game on clay the day he got tested, good shit.

There's a fair bit of stuff on the banned list that isn't performance enhancing. The drug that Sharapova was banned for hasn't even been proved to be performance enhancing.

Something to do with certain drugs harming the health of whoever takes it.

Some drugs are used as masking agents for PED.

Have you seen the price of the fucker now, £100 a gram, £50 when I was a lad

Can't believe you get done for gak the same way as for steroids. The doping laws are meant to be about gaining an unfair advantage - what advantage does an athlete get from talking non stop about Tarantino for an hour then getting into a fight?

Aye but that's my point, if the only person it's harming is the person taking it then they shouldn't face bans for it, it's not giving them an advantage in any way.

Aye but that's my point, if the only person it's harming is the person taking it then they shouldn't face bans for it, it's not giving them an advantage in any way.

On the other hand, it's illegal in most countries in which top notch tennis is played.

Totally agree, go on like its crime of the century, who cares. Well the anti-doping obviously, but shouldn't pretend he has killed anyone.

Christ, I'd be in trouble other wise.

Is it? Or is it to have enough to sell etc. If you caught having one line in a toilet and no more, would you get locked up?

 

[MarcoG]

Aye but that's my point, if the only person it's harming is the person taking it then they shouldn't face bans for it, it's not giving them an advantage in any way.

It's a stimulant though isn't it? Always been rumoured that players used to have a quick sniff in between points/games back in the 70's and 80's to give them an edge during the match.
