        It's a shame that my first thought when it comes to unbelievable performances in this event is "If it's too good to be true, it usually is".
        Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

          Really suffered last night and cheated as well for the second time taking drinks and food when he shouldn't have. How good is the Columbian kid Quintana on the mountains.

            Stuart O'Grady admits(only after being outed) that he took EPO in the tour, but only once

              Disappointing. I really respected him.

              His whole career is a lie, and he's a cheat who's made millions off being a cheat. I wish I didn't feel like this, but I've taken a hard line stance with Contador, who only ate "tainted meat (yeah right)", so I have to be consistent.

              And my God, what a weak story he has concocted that is in no way designed to try to divert attention away from his teams and team mates.

              I hope he's stripped of any and all awards. Cheat.

                Before?

                But it was only in 1998 when everyone was on it... Surely that means it's ok??

                  Before to get benefits during the race, plus if the Festina Affair didn't happen he wouldn't have smashed his supply and probably would have kept using it.

                  And that's if you believe he only took it once, which I don't.
