Kolo Toure suspended for 6 months after positive drugs test

6 Months after the season starts or staring today?

back dated to March 2nd eligible on spet 2nd

not too bothered not really a big for them. the ban should be longer

I dont think it was that serious suso, I kinda feel sorry for him, he's a good respectful guy and he only took his wifes dieting pills, big deal. If it was that guy that is sipping down cocaine in fiorintna than he deserves all the bans he gets but toure's ban is just ridiclous and thankfully wasn't that harsh.

deserved

yr probably right mate, maybe harsh. but when your a pro footballer you should no everything that goes into yr body. if he was taking any drugs regardless whether its for a upset tummy or even a headache he should make sure with man city medical staff whether its safe or not. you have to admit he has to be pretty stupid taking a dieting pill without finding out about the side effects. i would understand if he was a 18yr player who just came out of africa a few years ago but he is and has been a seasonal pro for years.

whats yr take on rio ban a few years back?

footballer shouldn't take anything unless its been given to them by the club doctors

it's a bit sick on the club doctors that, imagine having to check every single product for illegal substances, could be anything illegal in anything from toothpaste/mouthwash/preservatives in food etc etc.

I don't eat much toothpaste, personally. But then, I'm not a professional sportsman.
