Today Toure was given a (backdated) 6 month ban, other cases seen PAddy Kenny banned for 9 months, Ferdinand banned for 8 months....Where do they pull these figures from?? Should there be a standard ban, and how long should it be? |

Don't be stupid. Banned for life for offences like Toure's and Kenny's is pathetic. |

No it's not. happens in cycling. If you take drugs that may enhance your performance you should be banned for life. Also i would like you not to call my opinion stupid, If I believe in something I will voice it and I would quite like to be able to do that without fear or being called stupid of having beliefs,cheers. |

Not all drugs enhance your performance, so yeah it is stupid. And if taken accidentally then of course they shouldn't be banned for life. |

Should depend on the situation, the drug in question etc. But there certainly needs to be more consistency. Rio got 8 months for missing one. Mutu got less for testing positive for a grade A drug. |

Read my second post again please. MAY ENHANCE I'm only speaking about enhancing drugs or Illegal drugs. |

You said life ban for doping offences. It is too grey an area to hand out life bans as standard - which was the topic. |

Could have sworn performance enhancing would have narrowed it down. |
