I firmly believe that they're very prevalent and that the only reason we've not had the type of scandal that has blighted cycling and now athletics, is the amount of money involved in the sport and the amount of vested interests in keeping it under wraps. Testing is a drop in the ocean compared to cycling. The money to be made in the game, for what is a relatively short career, will make it difficult to decide not to use them, especially if your opponents are doing it. I just don't think FIFA or UEFA are that bothered, and when the head of the IAAF is supposed to have taken bribes to keep positive tests a secret, it wouldn't surprise me if they were doing the same. Plus, the punishments for the few who have been caught have been pretty weak, which isn't gonna deter anyone.
I think it's just a question of when the story breaks and who takes the fall. What do you reckon?
