I was going to say, witch hunts are probably a pretty good idea in a world where witches are actually real.

Cram is the ultimate hypocrite. Disgusting human being.

How many doping tests has Taoufik Makhloufi missed?

I have got no problem with a witch hunt on Farah although it is a tad disconcerting the way the whole Radcliffe thing was covered up in comparison. Seems the media are happy to go after the Somalian born Muslim whilst doing everything to protect lovely Paula.

Cram is the ultimate hypocrite. Disgusting human being.

that's rather harsh............cram always seems 'ok' to myself..........

although clearly he knows where his bread is buttered

....... i do wonder if his own past would stand close scrutiny?

and yes! time for an in depth expose of paula's 'magical' performances

Since when did journalists asking legitimate questions become a 'witch hunt'? They are doing their journalistic job. Farah's coach has been outed as doping athletes. Farah has some serious questions to answer about it. Where is the 'witch hunt' in that?

Yes the media are picking on an athlete who is not Brit born, but he still has serious questions to answer.

I think the BBC do have more evidence about Salazar doping Mo. I Think if the BBC had footage of Mo being given injections by Salazar they would not show it unless it benefited themselves i.e. they break the story first before someone else.
When you look back at the Beebs coverage of the jubilympics its was some of the most queen/Great Briton sycophantic elitist self righteous TV Bullsh%% I have ever seen.
Busting Mo makes the BEEB look a Buch of Tw%ts and will change the whole history of that event for the worse " good IMO"
The whole fuc%%ng Olympics thing did nothing for anyone but the rich......
Sorry for going a bit off topic at the end.

“I have never taken performance enhancing drugs in my life and I never will. Over the course of my career I have taken hundreds of drugs tests and every single one has been negative.

Hundreds? That's a hell of a lot, but I think Armstrong still holds the record with 500 clean tests.

You do get the impression that Mo/Freuds are working from the Armstrong playbook. However it might have been better if they had read all the way to the end first.

 

[The Hitch]

Well everyone plays from the Armstrong playbook. It probably isn't even the "Armstrong" playbook. All dopers always say exactly the same - never tested positive, so many tests, train really really hard.

Agreed Ray J. I recon they know something that'll have him 'bang to rights'. They know it'll come out eventually anyway so they might as well lead on it. Of course they'll make themselves out to be holier than though when the real story breaks and emphasize how anti doping they are. I can't see any other reason why the BBC have turned on one of their chosen ones.

If you read the posts you will see that it was Cram who called it a 'witch hunt'. Nobody on here has criticised it. Farah is a blatant doper and deserves all he gets.

In the survey the muppetarium at letsrun did, 55% said farah is clean.

known supplier, but his charges didn't take any? And Bill Clinton "didn't inhale" either...

Just hope Monaco have shipped in Big Ben for the Diamond League meeting so he knows when the last lap is.

After weeks of thorough preparation, Salazar is now responding to the doping allegations! He's basically saying it's all wrong. He's opposed to doping. He'll never dope athletes. Galen Rupp is medically diagnosed with a million different conditions (so far, no mention of Badzilla however) that allows him to take everything he's been allegedly taking.

Its such a shame all these amazing athletes are so ill all the time.

Imagine how fast he would be, if he wasn't on a gazillion medications for illnesses.

It's pretty common for middle and long distance runners to train in East Africa so the first badzilla transformations can't be too far away.

She does look quite fetching in that little black number.

I'd also like to offer support to her 'Big Up Your Chest' campaign...

...for my own reasons!

 

[fenns]

Remember when Neymar joined Barcelona they announced they had to boost his red blood cell count as they had discovered he was anaemic. Fancy that! They obviously don't have doctors in Brazil.

 

[Pies&Booze]

Galen has the same terrible affliction as Kara Goucher, Hashimoto's disease. An average of 1 to 1.5 in 1000 people have this disease. It occurs between eight and fifteen times more often in women than in men. Though it may occur at any age, including in children, it is most often observed in women between 30 and 60 years of age.

The most common symptoms include the following: fatigue, weight gain, pale or puffy face, feeling cold, joint and muscle pain, constipation, dry and thinning hair, heavy menstrual flow or irregular periods, depression, panic disorder, a slowed heart rate, and problems getting pregnant and maintaining pregnancy. (As per Wiki).

I can see why this might be a problem trying to run fast.........

This is a good article about their dodgy doctor - might have been posted before because I remember reading about this a while ago.

And Sally slates Steve Magness as unprofessional / sh*gging one of the female athletes at NOP etc. as expected.

I think this story has more to give.
