Jamie Hughes (footballer)

Jamie Hughes is a current semi-professional and former professional English footballer who is notable for becoming the first British footballer to fail a test for a performance-enhancing drug. While a YTS player with Division One Tranmere Rovers in May 1995, he failed a drugs test and was discovered to have taken amphetamines. His punishment for the offence was a six-month ban from football (suspended for two years). [http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sport/football/29243.stm]

Hughes has since played at non-league level for clubs including Vauxhall Motors, Lancaster City [http://www.lancasterguardian.co.uk/ViewArticle.aspx?sectionid=32&articleid=747104] and Ashton United as well as Rhyl, Bangor City and Connah's Quay Nomads in the League of Wales and Derry City in the Irish league.
