    In a odd way it has raised his profile big time.

    May in a bizzare way increase his pulling

    I personally think he’s guilty. Especially with the alleged drugs that were in his system and not to our knowledge requesting his B sample being opened.

    But I must admit that VADA announcement gave me a slight bit of doubt but to counter that if he was innocent how the hell has dianabol turned up in a sample? Would it mean UKAD have mixed up his sample with someone else’s? Has someone tainted his sample? It’s a bit far fetched isn’t it?

    I find Dullian PED Pudding Whyte guilty of all offences and already having previous form for being a PED user - a life ban for me together with repayment of all PPV money to the Mugths.

    His Vada tests being all clear and considering his UKAD test had trace amounts I certainly am far more open to accepting this isn't as clear cut as it seemed a week ago.

    Maybe it was cross contimination that caused it.

    There's a chance but it is incredibly far fetched. The way drug testing works is that you fail one test and you're guilty, irrespective of other passed tests around the same time.

    Got to wonder if VADA is testing for STDs as it looks like their noses would not detect a smelly fart.

    If BBBOC/UKAD had been more forthcoming and Dillian/Matchroom had made actual statements then I think I could see him being innocent.

    But the passing the buck by all parties just makes it look worse and worse.

    "Look lads I have already said to much, I will get in trouble, Dillian is making a statement tomorrow that will clear things up"

    24hours later

    Dillian - "I am really upset"

    I do see a possibility that there is a rational reason. But the antics around it suggest they are massively on the cover up

    Also last person to accuse AJ before Whyte was Miller.

    Which makes the how deflection thing seem plausible

    Even if Whyte is cleared I hope he then reigns it in with his accusations towards AJ. He doesn't like how people have turned on him when his not been found guilty yet so maybe he can now stop throwing mud at AJ.

    Do we know the frequency and dates when VADA conducted their tests? Means nothing. I don’t know enough about dianabol but I’m assuming it can be masked in tests. The fact that it was trace amounts means nothing for that reason.

    Passing the VADA tests means nothing IMO this is a UKAD test and that’s all that matters.

    Of course there is a chance but sadly I think he probably has taken something.

    There are also lots of inconsistencies in the accounts from Hearn, Tibbs etc. I found it very farfetched that Tibbs said he didn't know.

    I also think Matchroom cleverly using the VADA results (which lots of the more casual audience would've heard of before) to try and muddy the waters and imply he's totally clear to be interesting too. Why all the PR spin if he genuinely is clean?

    It worked though. I have a friend who's a very casual fan, but likes Whyte. He tweeted about that VADA news as if it cleared Dillian. I had to point out to him the failed test was from another organisation and he hadn't realised that.

    Sky and Matchroom coordinating that release was clever, but makes me more suspicious.

    They'll both be testing for the same sort of things but at the same time different things etc and levels, passing one and failing another, just means only one caught you not both or more
