our footballerists can be on truckloads of drugs and they stillhave been largely s**t when it comes to representing our country. makes you wonder how in athletics, cycling, tennis etc we've gone from habitual sporting nonentities to monstering the top of the meddle table in the space of a decade or so. can't just be lottery funding shirley?
