    If u need some information, come to the Philospher.

    Just to set a few things straight. There have been allegations that the OM players werre doped for years. The most compelling evidence i have seen is that an ex OM player, Tony Cascarino, an ex Ireland International, has been saying that they were injected with performance enhancing drugs for years. It has not been in order to sell books, it has not been a major story. it is just one of the many stories that he mentions when he is writing in the papers or interviewed on tv. He said that they would all be cajoled into it by the club physios and Tapie himself. and he was also clear on the effects, the increased stamina and recovery rate. Now , lookng at cascarinos reasons for talking about this: there is no conceivable reason why he would lie about this, he has no gain, in fact, it could have been a major dent to his repution, Britain would probably be the worst place to be caught as a drugs cheat. It is just one of the many stories that make up his repertoire.

    BTW, there is no way that the trophy will be taken off them. if this happens we are talking about taking the wc of italy for 1934(inelgible players), maybe Germany for 54(drugs), the EC and those league title for Juve in the mid-late nineties (more drugs). basically, unfeasable in practice
