Hi All,

This is really interesting especially since £22000 of the white stuff has been found on the Island and the blokes from Merseyside and a couple from the Island are up in court this week.

We have all got to admitt that we have all heard the stories of the odd ciggy getting passed round the paddock with a drop of the brown stuff installed we all must have known someone that used it. But I think the problem here is it is a serious drug thats involved, and if it was anyone else apart from a well known person would it have even been publisied. I am not condoning it but it seems other people are voicing extreme points of view without all of the facts. We don't know what happened, we don't know if the investigation has found anything, we don't know if Christian has had a threat made, he has said he was threatened but until its investigated properly we will not know the answers. So we shouldn't jump to conclusions ... I would hate Colin to be on a Jury, before anything has happened it would be guilty until proven innocent ...... lol

As for drugs in racing.. well there is no way to test for it without taking a blood sample so thats a non starter, but drugs can still have dramatic affects ... big spiders half way down Bray Hill are not really there by the way Cargo ... just in case you have any more stash in your two week old socks lol (kidding by the way............. there really are Spiders).

But seriously what can you do apart from ban someone involved in the distribution of drugs, and if so how far do you take it? As you are obviously not getting at the real problem ...... I think that a jail term if found guilty is never an option ..... its a must.... and surely this is punishment enough?

Here is a question for you .... if Christian is found not guilty and completely innocent ... how are you going to view him next time round ... sh*t sticks even if you never did anything in the first place ........ dangerous ground there unfortunately ....
