Is Ullrich actually trying to claim that he wasn't on EPO in 1996/7? Surely not.
I certainly consider it credible that he was 'only' on blood doping in 2003-6. He was naive enough to perhaps believe that EPO was of the past.
I see the relationship between him and Armstrong a little like Blair/Brown--both the junior partners hopelessly compromised by association with the main guilty party (but, of course, still guilty in their own right).
