Quote: Chris28 "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'"

I think that the RFL would be hard pressed to justify any penalty against the club given that not a single one of the people responsible are still here - not even the BOD. It would be exceptionally easy to challenge any such ruling and win.

What I cant understand is why Rule tried to cover it all up. A rumour was doing the rounds about Gleeson and slimming pills being the reason Cooper was so abruptly sacked at the time.
Ah well just another bat for our enemies to hit us over the head with.

It's certainly a concern for me that there may be additional punishments from the RFL which may include a fine or worse for the club - regardless of the fact that the three individuals are no longer employed by the club.

HAS long taken them same pills? If he admits to it then surely he could be looking at a ban,or did he just get them for gleeson after speaking to cooper?

The whole thing just screams incompetence.

Why did a professional sportsman accept someone else's word that a supplement was ok?
Why did a professional conditioning coach clear a supplement that wasn't permitted under WADA rules?
Why did a Chief Executive get involved in a ludicrously incompetent attempt at a cover up?
Why did everyone think lying about it all was going to make it all go away?

Martin Gleeson would always have got a ban for taking the substance regardless of whether Cooper cleared it or not. He was on a short(ish)-term contract and was hardly setting the world on fire in a mediocre team. What was the point of it all?

Utter stupidity. All of it.

It doesn't matter. You can only perjure yourself in a legal sense if you lie in a court of law or otherwise use an untruth to affect the outcome of court proceedings. The UKDA hearings are not a court of law.

It seems that Long had used the supplement at some point. If he did it before 2010 then he wasn't committing an offence.

I appear before the Asylum & Immigration Tribunal and am sure there are rules about lying there. Maybe not a criminal offence, but viewed pretty seriously

Lying in front of the UKDA is also an offence - that's effectively what Cooper and Rule have been banned for. icon_smile.gif

The Asylum & Immigration Tribunal may not be a court of law but it's still an official part of the UK 'system'. And I imagine that there are specific offences in law governing evidence presented to it. The UKDA is entirely extra-Governmental and will not have any such protection in law.

Quote: Kosh "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.'"


Not on the on-line edition, but a two-page spread in todays "paper" Mail stresses the illness was real

They do also go on to ask the questions of how much of the stress was induced by the drug test failing, and, if so, if the support and advice following this was sufficient by the club.

Feeling a bit sorry for Gleeson who's main failing seems to have been gross stupidity. Also surprised at Long's negligence, especially after his verbose descriptions of horror in his book about Cunningham's failed drugs test when unwittingly given them by the Saints conditioner, and the possible consequences for other team-mates.
