Not sure how true this is

[walker]

But I've heard Tom Boonen has tested positive for Cocaine

 

[domtyler]

so I heard right

 

[mondobongo]

Yes you did. The story is everywhere even the BBC is running with it on their cycling page. The BBC are quoting the UCI as saying he will face no sanction from them as it was out of competition.

 

[walker]

Which is fair enough, it's not going to boost any perfomance if your not racing

 

[walker]

thing is will ASO now get QS to sack him?

would it be wise? would QS go the Liquigas route and tell ASO to stick up their ar$e

Does it work if you stick it up your arse?

Only if accompanied by a million quid!

Boonens crown will be slipping a little now that this news is out. It's probably not going to be an official ban but given the general anti drug feelings in cycling today it could really cause a problem for him and/or his team!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yenrod you are a complete tool and you Keith!
You two are the first to slate any rider for anything especialy Boonen. Boonen needs support in a hard time.
However if this was David "dandy" Millar we were talkin about sniffing cocaine you would be saying " how hard his life has been how he only did it beacuse he was depressed etc...." and you would be licking his arse out but beacuse Boonen is not british and a big star unlike Millar, you decide to have a go at him and accuse him of stuff. Its obvious he has got caught in the wrong crowd and the amount of pressure the belgian media place on him along with his celebrity life style it has all got a little to much a bit like a Gazza from footy if you remember.
Also what p**ses me off is that Boonen is being pushed away from races and told not to go and people calling for a ban yet Stefan Schmacher last year tested positive for cocaine yet he has no ban and is still aloud to race how can this be??????????
