Hanshithispantz Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Did anyone miss 6 month and get snapped up in a multi million quid deal though? I think they would have added "England Star" instead of "Premiership Ace" however if it was Andy Carroll. It'll probably be a mid table player nobody gives a shit about.

Anderson Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 If the silhouette is the player in question it's definitely not Carroll. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 If the silhouette is the player in question it's definitely not Carroll. I love those silhouettes, wish they were real. I bet the likes of Peter Crouch and Andy Reid would hope they were never implicated in some scandal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf, if the FA deemed it to be in their best interests to try and cover this up, it would possibly suggest someone seen as a future England star? Either that or he plays for Man Utd. Also The Sun probably won't know exactly who it is atm, otherwise they'd no doubt try to break it before C4 do tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 The Sun says that 'the identity of a top Premier League footballer who tested positive for cocaine will be revealed tonight'. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/3808119/Top-Premier-footie-ace-is-on-cocaine.html s*** just got serious. If it did turn out to be Carroll (nee chance imo) then this story is the last thing he needs atm. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sun must know something if they are reporting that he has since moved clubs (although they could just be talking shite). I think if it was a genuine top player we'd have found out by now tbh, ala Giggs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sifu Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Once the player is named, then surely a ban would be coming his way and the FA will have to face the repercussions for covering it up? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that the FA know about this is the biggest point for me, would the FA really be willing to risk their already battered reputation for the sake of a mid-table plodder?

Anderson Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Saying that, like you've said, the article reckons there are dozens of players involved who's identities will also be revealed... although again it's strange for them to highlight one specific player if this one player was a relative nobody. Sounds like it could be massive though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Surprised more footballers haven't been busted for cocaine to be honest. I thought it'd be much more prevalent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Sounds like the other players are retired/not playing in England anymore. Kind of pissed off this is at the same time as the QPR game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 The whole things even stranger when you consider how hard they were with Toure recently for diet pills, and the fact they came down hard on Ferdinand for a missed test just before a major international tournament, yet they're willing to try and cover this up...

Anderson Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 It'll be a load of nothing man. Quite possibly, I was barely interested in it before tonight, but now I dunno, like I said it seems ridiculously strange that the FA would go to such lengths for a mid-table plodder. Saying that, this article could be massively wide of the mark... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Haris Vuckic Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 When I was at Uni a mate of mine would insist that Daniel Agger had a cocaine addiction & that he infact wasn't injured, just addicted to crack & put into rehab. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Cocaine and cannabis in cycling would only get a three month and so is considered a lesser drug to other stuff. Think its worse that a player is Fucking over their club by doing that though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
