Still trying to get cleaned up...

Roland · October 19, 2008

Here we are now 7 years down the line, and I have to congrtulate the Belguims for striving to rectify their name.

It is of course no doubt that when these stories circulated a lot had to be done... for the sake of not just their Reputations, but 'Sales' wises and the stigma that went with it.

For those that don't remember, or wasn't into our sport, reports were rife and inestigations fierce to rebuild their' name.

Like other field, in many walks of life and sports, one wonders if more sufistication is now used or, - hopefully - the scurge is cured. Doubt if it is, personally, completely retified, but great inroads have no doubt been made.

Yes their' names were brought out over here as well as over there ... but only the 'Lesser' fall guys.

Bigger names were 'Pending' or mentioned and let drop.

It soon to become a clean up campaign to save the 'Sales' industry. Hence shutters were put into place to help the 'Good name' of Belguim to continue selling.

It is / was after all a mega buck concern.

Started with the banning of 'Cortisan' which was supposedly rife there. Yes and some here of course.

Also the 'Needle' aside of the breat bone... again rumoured stronly over here now.
