Boycie Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Don't get me wrong I am not saying Farah has anything to answer to with regards to performance enhancing drugs , I just think its a lame excuse for missing the test.PS I live in a three story house and I can hear someone knock on my door from the attic .not if they have a limp wrist you wouldn't.

LesterRam Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 It's an interesting one, isn't it?There have been an average of 340 athletes on the national testing register over the last 5 years, and in that time, there have been 224 missed tests. That's an average of 2 missed tests for every three athletes at most, or one missed test for every six athletes at least dependent upon how volatile the list of 'testable' athletes is year-by-year.Why do you choose to single Mo Farah out?I didn't start this thread this is 2 years old !!!, I was looking through old threads..

You really need to get out more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LesterRam Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I don't get why there is one rule for another and a rule for another, do you remember Christine Ohuruogu, the cover girl for British athletics and a fine athlete, failed to provide a third test when she was out of competition !!!, result was suspension, despite her two world titles, Olympic gold and silver medals and a national record to boot, now the tests regarding Mo were 2010 but he still represented the UK at the 2012 Olympics even though the British Board of Control would have known this information !!!rough justice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he had missed 3 he would also have been suspended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridgford Ram Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 It is just a shame that he missed the tests around the time he was changing from an average European athlete to a premier World athlete, it is bound to put doubt in some peoples minds.
