Can professional players smoke weed ?

[chris lee]

I know players get tested for drugs with cocaine being a major issue in the professional game, but I gather the main purpose is to stop the use of performance enhancing drugs (steroids)

Anyway while my skill level will never surpass sunday league standards, a thought did strike me. I personally enjoy a little smoke before and after a match.

Is cannabis something that is tested for at the top level, and would it result in a ban?

It is definitely performance enhancing in my experience

[Croesy Blue]

Not sure what ban/fine they'd get but I'm sure they're not allowed.

[NYCBlue]

Weed is still illegal in the UK. So yes.

What's wrong with half-time?

Weed stays in you body for up to 30 days, Spice is the way forward.

What's wrong with half-time?

Too busy munching!

[Eric the Half a Bee]

Not sure it would be the best thing to do during a game.

I too subscribe to the weed before leads idealogy. Really gives you time to pick the pass.
