Joleon Lescott drugs ban if he's not careful

[coulsonblue]

Lescott has been tweeting saying he was taking lemsip.

Then people have alerted him to the Paddy Kenny drugs ban which was caused by a lemsip.

Lescott says he's checking it out with the club doctor.

Lets hope the testers don't find out, as no doubt they'd target him at training tomorrow.

Either that, or that it goes out of your system very quickly.

I'm not sure if the loophole still exists but until recently players were only tested at training,you just ducked training if you felt you were in danger of being caught.
ps.the bad back of rio's must mean he misses a hell of a lot of training,motwyw.

i would have thoguht that whatever is contained in lemsip may also be contained in other, banned substances that may help you. But aint sure tbh

Im no chemist, but isn't the active ingredient in a lemsip just a dissolvable paracetamol with lemon flavour?

Is this why footballers are always snotting on the pitch ?

Pseudoephedrine is on WADA's list of banned substances I think.
