| Also wondering why the previous board were so quick to sell when Adam came a-knocking, when they'd been so reluctant in the past.
And, whether our former chief exec has perjured himself? Is evidence before this tribunal under oath?

Neither was their official club conditioner involved, not their CEO complicit in a cover-up though. Nigel Wood has said we're guilty of bringing the game into disrepute. Not clear-cut one way or the other IMO.

Again I'll ask what evidence do you have other than hearsay and rumour to support Gleeson's alleged depression. People seem to be accepting this as a fact. Surely we should have learnt by now that many alleged facts on here and elsewhere turn out to be nothing of the sort.

I think it’s entirely possible that Rule used Gleeson’s existing condition to cover up the drugs thing. Given Gleeson’s history it’s not hard to believe that he had problems and has suffered from mental illness. Depression can make you do stupid and irrational things.

| Very embarrassing for the club, despite the 3 guilty individuals no longer anything to do with us.
Just another example of what a complete shower of s**te the previous ownwers were. They continually tried to do things on the cheap, and and this instance, as in so many others, their cheap options (cheif exec and conditioner) just wernet up to the task.
Glad none of them are no longer with us, although I am dissapointed that Rule was allowed to take the easy option and resign, I would have much rather that he had been sacked for his part in this sorry affair.

As said already, given Rules's generous self-love, I'm surprised he'd risk it all for what amounted to a knackered player trying to lose some weight, hardly a cup final riding on it.
Next you'll be suggesting he never really intended to go after Paul Cooke for compensation despite declaring this intention at a public fans forum.

Just read the tribunal findings, tbh its Rule I'm most hacked off with.
Cooper seems to have been a prat that didn't check things properly, Long trusted his advice and told Gleeson the pills were Ok to take.
Gleeson was a prat and took them without checking with cooper (but would most likely have been told the same as Long).
But just what Rule hoped to achieve by messing about and trying to cover things up to a degree I really can't get my head round.

Did you deal with him on a day to day basic to know if it was true or fault If I had that contract with him I might have known one way or another ..I have been through depression with somebody but I was with them every day to see it also I took in what the Doctor said

I get your point, but sts staff weren't involved in the betting. As for the team resting, maybe it was investigated and not proven.
I just hope that the new broom will protect the club

Yeah, can't see why someone might come down with depression soon after finding out that he's tested positive for a banned substance and his career is probably over. I mean it's not as if he'd only recently had to deal with some other extremely stressful personal issues or anything.

And again I'll ask you what evidence you have that he wasn't/isn't dealing with depression.
People are accepting that on the balance of probability it's likely that he had/has depression. That's not the same as accepting it as fact.

The point being that McManus AFAIK did not try to cover up the betting scandal. The players were individually punished, but there was no suggestion that their board knew about it and lied about it and that the club was therefore complicit in the individual transgressions. This is a bit different IMO. There may be broader consequences - it's possible.
