    So, meat is SO bad in France it requires someone to bring some from the neighboring country.

    Reads like the meat was just for Contador, did no-one else have it? no one at all? Did the chef cook it just for Contador? Or have I missed something?

    The whole thing about finding the receipt is strange too. You'd have thought that would the first thing they would have done right after Contador tested positive so they could back up their claims and wave the receipt at the media.

    Doesn't look convincing to me right now.

    the whole story is preoposterous... put it this way if is true!


    what a weirdo he has to personally import meat... why so much red meat in the first place


    fish white meat and all that


    I thought these guys are hyper on dietary issues... its not the 1970's steak for breakfast still is it?

    The one bit about the whole story I can buy is that Contador thought French meat rubbish and Spanish meat far superior.

    My wife was enaged to a Spaniard many years ago and still goes on about how narrow minded most of them were. Especially regarding their food. They view Spanish food as far superior to all other nation's food. Even if, or especially if, they have never eaten any non Spanish food!

    He doesn't say the meat in France is not as good, he says it is not the same. Does this mean Spanish beef is more likely to be full of clen and therefore more likely to back up the story? :wink:

    Yeah, well you could substitute English and Englishmen in here
    Its the same in lots of countries, not just Spain. I'm sure the French would say the same for instance.
    Which is why they will be p*ss*d by Bertie refusing their fillet steak.
    Can I upgrade???

    As much as Vino, Kreuziger and Menchov might like to see Contador thwarted by "losing" the receipt, the team couldn't afford another dodgy positive. The team has been under watch for some time and this could be the final straw for ASO and even the UCI.

    Adds a new meaning to "ave calves", eh? :wink:

    Sorry, if this has already been said:

    If the animal was killed in an abattoir that sells to local butchers then I would imagine that all of it would have been sold and eaten within a few days of this particular steak being bought. So it might not be possible to test other pieces of meat from that animal.

    And while records will identify which animal provided that steak, if a farmer is illegally giving clen to his animals he's hardly going to record it, though I guess tests on his other animals would reveal if he is systematically dosing them. But that testing would have to be done under the equivalent of a search warrant, I'd presume.

    As for the meat being different - different countries have historically used different breeds for beef and if France and Spain do so, then French meat would seem different to anyone used to Spanish - the texture, consistency and taste would all be different. Not worse, just different.

    This receipt is probably going to be worth a fair bit by now. It's probably sitting on some gaudy Kazakh desk watched closely by some fat bloke with a white cat on his lap.

    The main thing is that Contador is a "really friendly person", all else is fluff.

    If a failed test leads to a roasting for AC, it's essential the authorities fry to take their time to a-braise the results correctly, so that an innocent man isn't unnecessarily em-broiled in scandal and a merciless grilling by the world's media.

    think there could be a bit of poor translation here from CN as the chef and Contador are saying the exact same sentences word for word.

    I wonder if the butcher even knows where the meat came from. Does he source from the same farm all the time or just go to a market and bid on the best ones etc.
