If Fowler and McManaman were at it, then it may cause some bad publicity for LFC.

The beeb on Saturday or some University had taken a poll and I think it was 40% of footballers polled knew someone who was on drugs.

Its bl**dy easy to sort out each club carries out compulsory testing every week, period.

They wont cos there worried what they find and then they have to deal with it and money is at stake so they wont without an initiative from somewhere else that tells them like the FA.

They wont cos they are too comfortable and they dont want to make difficult decisions probably saying its a club issue, they have already shown they are paper tigers.

There are of course much bigger issues but I won't bore you all!

the players also get tip offs when the mdical inspectors are comin round. they just lay off for a while.
the fowler mcmanaman thing, that wont cause bad publicity, its practiaclly a well known fact in Liverpool who was at it.
it doesnt shock anyone.

Then let me ask you why the clubs or the FA won't act?

could you imagine how many players would be banned or whatever, if they did it properly there would be absolute murder and the game would go down the toilet, they dont want this to happen of course.

Your right there Jim.

most of them are probably taking drugs like cocaine etc, which to my knowledge aren't performance enhancing.

while drug taking is so rife then the fans are being ripped off, players not playing to their physical capacity. :upside:

I'm shocked how ineffective the FA are.

to be honest, havin the odd line wont affect them that much.
if you're a cokehead then obviously you wont be playin as good but not if its the odd line.
its just that its illegal, all the stigma attached is what makes it bad. footballers are meant to be nice men.

the same as ciggies. loads of footballers smoke. it hasnt stopped them, gasgoigne, david james, henchoz, steve nicol ( i saw him when i was a kid!!)

in todays game i cant see many of our players being involved. Liverpool is always seen as a kind of family club, not the spice boys of years past.

And i say its not macca, thats just always in the news, or fowler. More than likely the newcastle lads and possibly some borough boys.

Just my opinion guys

could be bellamy, i hear he went right off at Souness after being subbed, he said ****** you you couldnt manage a ****** pub team or something, may be benched for rest of season.

The FA will do nothing cos they`re spineless bas.tards.Look at the pathetic way they handled Beckham.The england captain earns a deliberate ban,rings up a newspaper to boast about it,makes a public apology cos of the bad publicity,but they say they cant act because theres no proof.What,so a full confession doesnt count as proof?They wont act because they`re scared of the top clubs and the top players.

Hehehe, you got that straight from the Sunday Mail!

'Red Card: Newcastle's Craig Bellamy may be warming the bench for the rest of the season after his outburst following his substitution mid-week. "F*** you! You couldn't manage a F***ing pub team!"
