IF YOU DONT LIVE IN THE UK,YOU WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND BRITISH MEDIA. THE MAKE THE MOST OF STORIES. THEY HYPE GOOD STORIES AND ALSO HYPE BAD ONES TOO. THAT GUY COULD BE SICK AND TOOK PAIN KILLER, IT COULD BE OTHER FORM OF PRESCRIBE DRUGS AND MAYBE HE HAD OVERDOSE. IT COULD BE WEED, IT COULD BE SISHA. THOUGH NOT ANYFORM OF DRUG IS ALLOWED IN FOOTBALL EXCEPT ALCOHOL AND CIGERATE EVEN THESE ARE NOT ALLOWED BY EMPLOYER(MCFC) ITS NOT A BIG ISSUE FOR HIM TO BE CONDEMNED. IF HE GETS A LIFE BAN. HIS WAGES ALONE FOR ALMOST 2SEASONS THAT HE'S BEEN WITH MCFC IS ENOUGH TO CATER FOR HIM AND HIS FAMILY. I DONT THINK HE HAS OTHER RESPONSIBILITY EXCEPT MAYBE ACADEMY IN HIS HOME TOWN. ALL HIS BROTHERS ARE FOOTBALLERS. I'M SURE HE WILL PASS THE INVESTIGATION. COS TOURE DONT EVEN DRINK ALCOHOL SO I'M SURE HE MUST HAVE HAD OVER DOSE MEDICINAL DRUG.
THIS IS WHAT DROGBA SAID ABOUT THE CASE SO U CAN IMAGINE IF IS TRUE OR NOT
Chelsea's Didier Drogba has defended Ivory Coast team-mate Kolo Toure and said his failed drugs test was "a stupid mistake" rather than an act of cheating.

Kolo Toure and Didier Drogba are international teammates for the Ivory Coast.
It was revealed on March 3 the 29-year-old Manchester City defender Toure had tested positive for "a specified substance'' and he was hit with an immediate suspension.
He has received the backing of Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, his former boss, who also claimed that Toure believes the failed test happened after he took one of his wife's slimming tablet.
His brother and Manchester City team-mate Yaya has also defended his sibling and now Chelsea striker Drogba has stood in his friend's corner.
"It would be a difficult situation for us if he is banned because he is one of the most important players, one of the oldest, most experienced players," Drogba said.
"It would be very difficult for us if something like this happens. I think we all know how stupid it was, the mistake, and I don't think he did it to improve his performance. I think it was just a mistake and we feel sorry for him and he has all our support, and that's the maximum we can do.
"I spoke to him and he was down, but that is normal. He said it was just a mistake. There's not a big difference between what is said by Arsene Wenger and what he said (to me)."
Jesus replied, "What is impossible with men is possible with God." Luke 18:27
