Tom Turner Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Darcy Ward fails pre match alcohol breath test at Daugavpils Grand Prix. Darcy has been withdrawn from the meeting. Darcy Ward: "I received some bad family news yesterday." "I had a few drinks too and guess I had a few too many." "I was only marginally over the limit" "I guess I was not hydrated enough" "It's been the worst day of my life" The 22-year-old is due to attend a jury meeting following this afternoon's event in Riga at which he will give his version of events. Based on that meeting, a decision will then be made on what punishment, if any, will be handed out. A suspension and/or fine are possible penalties that Ward could face. His team manager at Poole, Neil Middleditch, politely declined to comment on the matter in detail. However, Middleditch told the Daily Echo: "I do not condone Darcy's actions but there are some mitigating circumstances which will come to light." As others have said there is unfortunately no excuse and a ban should be expected. Edited August 17, 2014 by Charizard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TheReturn Posted August 17, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Without knowing the full story I will reserve judgement, but based off his past problems I can't help feeling if this, is as reported, he had a load of drinks then shame on him. Equally, I think all those Poole sycophants, including Middlo who used to defend his past misdemeanours should ask themselves if they had come down harder on a younger Ward, would he still be making this silly stupid mistakes? 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
