Why Always Ste
Well-Known Member
So much is consistently discussed on football forums all over the Internet such as Transfer rumours, Player performances and Refereeing decisions yet one issue that, for me, is somewhat conveniently overlooked not just by the fans but also by the sports governing bodies and that is Performance Enhancing Drug use.
Yes it has been discussed before, but when you consider there's more discussion on another Messi rumour than something that's quite serious, shows the sports ignorance to its usage.
It's as of its simply brushed under the carpet.
At least %39 of EFL players were not tested in the 15/16 season (hopefully this has improved this season?)

In the above article it states of 550 players to play in the Premier League, 799 samples were taken.... But testing One player Five times equates to Five samples.
And also, players who may not of even played for their clubs in the Prem' could've been tested.
From being an active gym rat and involved in competitive sports myself to am extent, I've noticed a big increase on the wider acceptance of PED usage and this is on a amateur level.
So many lads living on a basic wage, not earning any money from a sport, are at the gym Juicing.
This has always gone on but the level it's at now is far more noticeable....and I put this down to culturally us as a society accepting PED use.
For me, it's somewhat endorsed by The FA/UEFA/FIFA as their procedures for testing are a complete joke and when you compare Footballs testing with other sports, it's a shambles.
Have a different view?
I notice many athletes in the English Premier League who, on my judgement of being around people who juice, clearly take PED's.
This is my opinion and I could be wrong.
Oh and you don't have to look like a WWE star to be taking PED's.
Look at the sport which goes on just around the corner from the Etihad Campus as an example of skinny guys who have been found guilty of this.
So, do you condone this cheating?
Seems it is condoned by those at the top and it's brushed under the carpet.
I technically condone it as I watch it.
