[QUOTE=Lord Didsbury;1193828]should we really pass too much of a harsh judgement on him anyway? He took some drugs like loads of people do
I'm not passing any judgement, just (as Davo would say) looking at the one fact that we know for sure.
If you employed him, Didders, maybe it wouldn't be a big deal to you if your employees used drugs. But athletes and sportsmen and women risk losing their jobs and reputation if they get caught taking drugs. They know that, and they know they get tested. His employer has a clear standard. He failed to meet it. He was sacked. No judgement on the rights and wrongs of drug taking.
.... (unless Dav knows better)
