Manchester City confirm that the FA has informed Kolo Toure that an ‘A-sample’ provided by him has tested positive for a specified substance.

As result of this, he has been suspended from participating in all first team and non-first team matches pending the outcome of the legal process.

There will be no further comment from the football club at this stage.

Holy shit didn't expect this. Kolos sample failed a dope test.

EDIT:

Oops. I see its got another thread.

This can be deleted/ignored

just getting my Reading ticket and saw this.....oh dear

At least I am glad that this has come out from the club and not some tabloid

what's a "specified substance"

Sand? Blood? Egg white?

Fuck me, what happens now? will he get banned like Ferdinand did a few years ago.

ooooh dear, not the best news with our current injury probs

Glad Joleon has been finding some form lately!

I'm surely at fault here btw.

I was just thinking the other day that "surely footballers are using doping, somehow they just don't get caught!"

SSN Now

*** please delete mods

Kolarov could do with a bit of speed.

Well he alredy got suspended.
Next I would imagine a second sample will be taken and let's see what is the result of that. Then of course, we do not know what is the "specified substance". That has a huge impact on the ultimate outcome.

ffs that's all we need, if footballers had a brain cell they would be dangerous

No difficult defensive decisions to be made then! Lescott and Kompany for the rest of the season

maybe thats why boyata got a few minutes against villa

Yes if the B sample proves positive.

Just to clarify, he has been banned by the club until a B sample is taken and that it is City who have opted to bring it in to the public domain.

Interesting way to handle it. Much better than it getting leaked I'd say.

When they made this announcement, did the OS have the mandatory 6*'s to clearly delineate that it was an official drugs test?

Its gonna be recreational.

What a dick.



NEVER QUIET SUPPORTING THIS CLUB EH?

Coke-o-Kolo?








Didn't bother taking me coat off
