    Lads, get over Szabo, she was cleared.

    And so were so many other cheats.

    You are being illogical here. Slating athletes who weren't even
    convicted or tried, yet exonerating those who were 'cleared.'?

    Christine, the 400 m British girl. What's your view on her?
    Do you accept the red herrings she gave?

    Theres nothing outragous about Szabo's times or progression. The Chinese on the otherhand came from nowhere, ran impossible times (nobody has got close to) and dissappeared straight after.

    You cant accuse Szabo here. The drugs in her car were undeclared drugs, not performance enhancing drugs. That can happen to anyone.

    And I'm merely mentioning the drug cheats to show you and others who called Sonia a bottler, that she was beaten by many people who were not playing fair.

    Sonia won an insane amount and if all her competitors were playing fairly she would have won even more.

    P.S. Christine its hard to know, i'd give her the benefit of the doubt, as it can be extremely easy to miss those drug tests, you need to be around all the time for them. I believe she was doing coaching for kids for UK athletics for one of her missed tests. Jerry Kiernan, who is so skeptical on RTE, even said he believed she was clean.

    RTE.ie are interviewing Katie Taylor later this week and have appealed for questions from members of the public including from sports forums like this. So here is an opportunity for KT fans and indeed for any 'Boards.ie fans with an interest in women's boxing - or Soccer - to put their questions forward.


    So what would you like to know about Katie Taylor? Her own views on women's boxing? Her hopes for a successful 2012 London Olympics? How hard does she have to train to achieve such success as has come her way? Who does she fear most in 2012? Will she retire if she strikes Gold in London?

    E-mail your questions to sportonline@rte.ie before Thursday 8 October, with the subject line: Katie Taylor Question.
