    I'd argue I wasn't. I merely pointing out that Yates failed a test but wasn't sanctioned, the reason for which I don't know. You say the B sample didn't come back positive but I haven't seen this, not arguing it isn't true here btw, and it does appear to go against received knowledge on drug tests, i.e. 99% of the time the B sample confirms the positive test from the A sample.

    well, even thought I remember it well I don't expect you'd take my word for it, that A was + and B was not. But in any case.. it is clear the B sample must have come back negative as they test the B sample after the A sample, no?..how else could he have been "non sanctioned"? Are you suggesting his A sample was negative and the testers had a go at the B sample +???? :lol: cause that is the only logical conclusion that can be drawn from your posting? How else do you suggest he was "non sanctioned" and kept his win??

    re Sky, ANC had 6 foreign riders, 19 Brits in the 1987 ANC team, with all British managers of the team...think Brailsford should really live up to the promise of it being a British Team and sign British riders over other foreign imports otherwise it is PR spin??
