Criminality apart I struggle to understand why anyone with half a brain uses coke. For obvious reasons it is not within the scope of ‘normal’ medical research but the damage cocaine does to heart muscle is not in serious doubt.....think John Entwistle, Bowie, Rick Parfitt etc., etc. Plenty of euphemistic ‘heart disease’ disguising a secret habit or youthful use....
I hate any forms of drugs with a vengeance, anyone who needs drugs to improve their lives should get a new life, apart from medical drugs I must add. My younger sister used to smoke cannabis regularly, she always insisted that it did no harm, she died a few years ago of an aggressive brain tumour, I will never be convinced that smoking cannabis didn’t contribute to her death.
Sadly some people get sucked into drugs but then don't want to get out. Not sure if he's one of these or out for the monetary gain.
Rumours around for years about him involved in drug smuggling. Running a Moto GP from the profits of a chicken farm ???
Noooo I’ve always thought of him as one of the good guys, he stood by Stuart Easton through all his injuries ( I always rated him as a rider) and he always seemed a straight talking team boss . Am I now going to have to change my opinion of Figwold after getting Paul Bird so wrong? Please tell me I’ve e got mr Figwold right, please,please please
Yeah, your pretty poor judge of character, figwold is a nice chap, sorry. Go read about how Bird treated James Ellison when he rode the Moto GP bike. Sometimes he couldn't afford to pay for his own flights to get to the races cos Bird hadn't paid him. Total and utter shitbag.
