so he'll be back for the start of the season pretty much?
[Inbeforeutdfans] rio got 8 months and a 50k for not going to one let alone testing positive. Disgraceful.[/inbeforeutdfans]
Although Rio could of taken anything, Kolo was banned for a substance found in diet pills, admittedly he should of had the tablets checked, but any player could of done it.

I was just about to say what you added to your edit Cavey.
Seems a bit of a get out that most of the 6 months will be spent whilst no football is being played though.

It is a disgrace imo, he's broken the rules and he should be punished to the same extent Rio was at least.
Cavey your point is valid that Rio may have taken any substance but it is just as feasible that he had no illegal substances in his system, and it was an honest mistake, but it would be pure speculation for any of us to say whether it was or not.

Agreed JJ. How can a player be banned during a time when no football is even played? Ridiculous.

RIO DESERVED LONGER THAN KOLO DUE TO NOT GOING TO THE TEST. HE COULD HAVE BEEN TAKING SPEED OR SOMETHING
KOLO WAS FOUND TO BE TAKING DIET PILLS

Why would speed be worse than whatever was in the 'diet pills' for a footballer?
