The cheats is what has kept athletics interesting - when the GDR and Ben Johnson were at it in the lab was when it was most watchable.
It would be like formula 1 if it was clean.

I fear I take the opposite view Bongo. Great athletes who should still be feted like for example Kathy Smallwood are forgotten by history and all because of the Eastern European Drugs programme. Other great athletes like Paula Radcliffe have suffered people speaking behind their hands about her as well.

You're just been patriotic and sexist to boot as well EO. You probably know blokes who have run the 400m faster than Smallwood and are completely anonymous.

I'm trying to remember her best time off the top of my head Bongo but at 20 coming off one of my few injury free winters training I think I'd have beaten her over 400 and definitely 800. There aren't many women even now who would be able to say that though.

I know Vlad. I was making the assertion that in my view she was. I was heavily involved in the game at that time and people knew what was going on as they did with Armstrong. I don't recall there ever being any whiff of anythig with Kathy and there was a lot of strong views on how she was being denied what was rightfully hers. People thought whether rightly or wrongly that a light slowly went out in her due to the Eastern Europeans.
