You didn't KNOW anything - there have been jokes and rumours flying about Hardaker's cocaine use for years. But please don't act like you had facts in your hand.

Cas have a good track record of standing by their guns - if they knew, why wait until 48 hours before the biggest game in their history?

home brewing of beer can be classed as illegal, I had that conversation with the C&E

Yes, there are no 'crims' involved in the trading of legal substances. Tobacco for example. https://www.ashscotland.org.uk/media/66 ... obacco.pdf www.bat.com/theman www.stop-illegal-tobacco.co.uk

and yet there were no 'crims' involved in tobacco say 15 years ago. Before the Briitish governemnt started taxing the hell out of it. People go on holiday and see how cheap cigs are and then come back home and must think wtf is going on. Sure we've always paid more in Britain because basiscally it's seen as you're paying extra to the NHS in case of Cancer and other smoking related ilnesses. But then at the same time Alcholol in supermakets seems to get cheaper and cheaper.

the more you brew the cheaper it gets so for someone like me find it hard when you have to compete with the big boys, also the abv is rated so a reducing in abv also reduces taxation so can be passed to the consumer

Indeed - look to prohibition in the US for a real life example.
