Paddy Barnes hits out at officials for drugs testing procedure

Paddy Barnes has revealed his fury at being asked to take a drugs test just hours after a previous meeting with officials was cancelled.

The Northern Irishman's initial test on Monday night was aborted as the 27-year-old was dehydrated after a training session, but the anti-doping team returned early on Tuesday morning for a second test.

#antidoping let me home at 2am last night, wake me up at 7.30am for another test! This is some preparation for the games, fucking joke!

Barnes, who picked up his second Olympic bronze medal two years ago, arrived in Glasgow on the weekend.
