Most MBs don’t seem to have picked it up as a story. Gaby Thomas is looking to refute one of the tests, as she thinks the testers didn’t try hard enough to contact her, as she was where she said she would be but they didn’t find her

"I have nothing to hide but it's not possible to show that if I'm not even given a chance to."
Coleman says he has been contacted by phone "literally every other time" he has been tested.
"The system must change."

There appears to be clearly now an attempt by American athletes to make a nonsense through their lawyers of the rules, which apply to all other nations but not to them. What a sh*t organisation are USADA, mouthing off against other names , but we know than the frigging Yanks truly believe that rules are not meant to apply to them , only the Russians, Kenyans and a host of other nations. coleman ought not to be allowed to get away with his lies but we know that when threatened the USA always talk tough. If World Athletics does not shape up then they are a laughing stock.
By the way you will all have noted that an American female boxer got away with an illegal susbstance in her body with the excuse about sexual transmission during sex with her partner; USADA have no interest in the rules.

Sadly the latest Coleman indiscretion isn’t that surprising. A good tweet from Lawton, The Times journalist, yesterday recalling Coleman saying in Doha ‘Testing is not something I think about everyday”. Even after coming so close to a ban he is still blasé about the whole process. His statement yesterday smacked of entitlement
I think there’s a high chance he’ll get away with it too, a 12 month ban from last December the most likely outcome.
