[QUOTE="An Tarbh, post: 206582"] I think his attitude has shown nothing but contempt for the system, a system whose rules he was fully aware of yet had no problem flaunting them only to cry foul when it turns against him. As for his times, at best he was barely a sub 10 second runner, his decent sub 10 second times were rightly struck from the record as he was using drugs at the time. You cite his European Championship win but again that was struck from the record. I'm certainly not naive enough to believe that all the top athletes are clean but that still never excuses the fact as far as I'm concerned. As for arm chair critics I've not heard many experts within the sport coming out to support him either Regarding Chambers being a medal chance, you're getting to the realms of fantasy there. Even if they're all on drugs he's still miles off the pace. [/QUOTE]
