That's a nonsense ban for using a recreational drug. |  |

Josh “the gaffer loves me” Yorwerth
Got released 2 weeks later.
I’m not surprised one bit by this, the guy was a tool. |  |

Probably a longer ban due to him missing avoiding the test etc. | |

So he would have only got a three month ban for doing the test and remained anonymous in the process but because he panicked and skipped it it’s now going to be 4 years?!
Crazy decision |  |

Maybe he'd been on the marching powder to think the gaffer loved him?
"The gaffer loves me, the lads, the fans, fcking everyone- god I'm sexy. Where'd I leave that wrap..?" |  |

The ban would have been 3 months and he would have remained anonymous.
He basically 'dodged' the test - which is a big, big no no.
Hard to have sympathy for him, not only did he knowingly take cocaine (his choice), he then knowingly avoided being tested. Two bad decisions don't make a right. |  |

Spot on - he was utterly crazy when making those 2 decisions. | |

Hang on. If I read the article right, he would have remained anonymous even with a positive test, but also received a three month ban.
How does that work? Does the club have to pretend he's injured? |  |

Unless there are aggravating circumstances. Had he been caught before, but allowed to remain anonymous? | |

Didn't Rio Ferdinand only get like 6 months for the same thing? |  |

It is exactly that, but the difference in punishments are so vast - it's mad. Almost a career ender.
I imagine Ched Evans would have been back in the game quicker even without having his sentence overturned |  |

It’s possible, but doesn’t seem to give any indication of that in the article.
Yorwerth was stupid and obviously deserves punishment but a 4 year ban seems incredibly harsh when players who have done similar have gotten away with significantly less. It would effectively end his career | |

The article says the 4 year ban is now mandatory for a missed test so I'm guessing things have changed to clamp down hard on missed tests. | |

Not sure Ferdinand ever tested positive for cocaine. | |

No, he missed a test which is what Yowerth has been banned for. | |

That little sequence was a question on Only Connect last night. And the lovely Victoria Coren-Mitchell said that the Dutch composer who wrote the music used in it had to sue the makers to get the money he was owed for it being used. |  | | |

I've read it, it provides a bit of context but I don't think it fully accounts for the differential in bans given that both were ultimately banned for missing tests as opposed to what they had or hadn't taken. | |

I think Rio 'forgot' to go to the test, and never admitted taking anything. Wasn't he supposedly shopping for trousers in Leeds?
In other words, Rio behaved like somebody with a very good lawyer, and Yorwerth has behaved like somebody with no lawyer at all. |  |
