Don't see much of Linford these days either.

Did he not have a drink driving charge a few years ago too, which wouldn't have helped him

The other question is how hard have they been looking? There is a whiff about Farah alright but I have also read people say that with Salazar's reputation Farah would be mad to be on the juice with the spotlight on their relationship.

Michelle Smyth, Lance Armstrong and the Dali Lama would be mad to be on the juice.

Modahl got cleared eventuallyi think.

Also i think limford is a uka coach somewhere so hasn't been shunned at all.

I think it is probably more due to the fact that he is absolutely rubbish on TV and has no charisma or personality when interviewed.

So Ireland finished 62 in the medal table then.

How does that rank against previous Olympics. I can't imagine that those who did win a medal get much in the way of funding.

You get what you pay for.

Ireland have only 31 medals in the history of the Olympics, 4 of which are tainted so I'd say 2 medals is a par to good total. Our expectations were probably set so high because of our boxing team..
