Germany is hell-bent on exposing the sins of her past (which is curious given the recent comments of Merkel, Sarrazin et al on 'multikulti').

Is this bad news for Voight? Will Ulrich come under the spotlight again? Or does everybody just assume the bike riders are a bunch of obsessive-compulsives doped beyond salvation?

It seems the 'leave it all in the past' argument doesn't cut it when we're talking about something important like football.

i'm all for it. Time to unlock the flood gates to all sports and look at the shíte that has built up, admit is was allowed to go on and it has got to stop.

it is enriching a small minority at the end of the day and these people are taking little or no risk because the athletes take the fall in nearly all the case
