  • I don’t think any employer would be able to suspend an employee for taking a slightly larger dose of asthma medicine than normal.

  • It’s relative. If an employee had a no drugs rule at their place of work and tested positive for cocaine. Even if it was small and their defence was that they kissed someone, they’d be suspended pending inquiry.

  • Suspended, with full pay.

    So it’s kind of different here. By suspending him, you’re taking away his ability to earn a living.

    Unless you’re suggesting awarding him the Giro win in absentia, and everyone can race for 2nd? :P

  • But it wasn’t a banned substance. You can use salbutamol, it’s just there is a maximum dosage permitted, and a limit on how much you have in your system. Froome has the right to show that he didn’t go over that dosage limit before any talk of suspension.

    The only reason we’re talking about this is because it was leaked. He hasn’t had the opportunity of due process so why should he be suspended?
