Not exactly the same thing - Contador claimed to have eaten tainted meat brought, especially for him, from Spain where Clenbuterol contamination is not known to be the widespread problem it is in China. His story lacked credibility in general.
Though I agree the Roger's decision does go against the principal that riders are responsible for what they consume and a team like Saxo, *especially *a Team like Saxo after Contador's experience, might have been expected to be more careful about what they let their riders eat in Beijing.
