CJ Ujah - doping

[Knittingupastorm]

I’ve just seen that CJ Ujah, the British sprinter, has been suspended for testing positive for doping and they’ll be looking in to taking away the team’s 4x100m relay silver medal. I think there’ll be a hearing once they’ve tested a second sample.

Obviously doping is always bad, but urgh when you’re in a team like that and it’s not just your medal you’re losing it’s so much worse!

I was so sad to hear this.

I'm fucking annoyed with him as he's one of dds favourite athletes. Arse.

I'm so annoyed about this too. The US reportedly warned about this substance appearing where it shouldn't in 2017!

These athletes are top flight - and "accidents" simply should not happen - I don't have much sympathy with missing tests either. If course, if it was deliberate he's even more of a tw*t.

I really feel for the others in the team.

such a disappointment, particularly since it is the Relay team, so not just him.
hope he gets the all clear

If you want to bugger up your own chances, go right ahead, but really poor to do it as part of the relay team.

Oh I do hope it is a mistake.

is it food stuffs or something that claims to help with energy and contained a hormone unbeknownst to CJ Ujah?

@AbsolutelyPatsy well that sounds like something he will claim , but honestly these athletes know the rules and they should understand how crucial it is that they don’t eat or otherwise intake any unknown foods/ drinks/otc remedies.
I hope for the rest of the team, that it’s a testing error and he’s clean. It’s so unfair for them.
