Story here. Now I know West Yorkshire police aren't the sharpest of plods, but its not looking promising for Morris.
Chambers found to have used that THG also. This "doping" seems to be a hot topic in Finlands news broadcasts.
I hope my fellow Mancunian. The 100m World Championship bronse medalist
Darren Campbell doesn't test positive too.
Chambers could have already cost three of his fellow athletes in the WC 4*400 meters medals (providing they don't test positive as well).
If I was a betting man i'd say it was worth putting a few quid on Marion Jones testing positive. If not then she has to be one of the greatest athletes of all time

Jody Morris arrested again/Chambers THG sample positive

I think that's what Olly means, Kemars. The Finnish media are running with the USTAF THG story quite hard. Nobody has yet had time to react to the Chambers incident. In fact I heard about it first on here about 30 seconds ago...
But if they scoop up 30-40 athletes and sportsmen in one fell swoop over there, then the SIGTHTF with a vengeance. (think bodily wastes impacting upon a ventilator)

Ker-rist! Just read the Jody Blue-Shirt stuff... He's in deep doo-doo now. And anyone else who's had a dalliance in the past that went a bit outside of Queensberry Rules will be biting their nails and waiting for the phone to ring, too.

They've been tipped off now though haven't they. I dont think doping is such a big issue in football. Take players like Maradona or Puskas for example, hardly the epitomy of fitness fanatics but two of the greatest players of all time. No drug on earth could make you play like them.

Puskas was doing intravenous meta-oxy-goulashadine throughout his career, and washing it down with Egri Bikaver. Didn't you know?
