Finally the British press might be waking up to what's going on in the world!
There are already at least six articles on it on the Sunday Times website all posted today, so I imagine (hopefully) this might make a splash on the papers tomorrow.
Also:
Britain’s anti-doping agency first became aware of the 38-year-old in 2014 after imposing a ban on a sportsman who sought to reduce his suspension by offering to turn whistle-blower.
Well played, UKAD, well played, banning someone who was trying to help you.

From what i have gathered, they are not gonna pursue a case and get those 150 doped sportspeoples names.
A shame really, cause they deserve to be caught. |

Am I surprised? No.
Protections will always happen. It always does. Or have we forgotten what the spanish justice did to the Puerto case? Nobody got convicted but cyclists, and the rest of the evidence we're ordered to be destroyed.
In Britain, same will happen. Can't discredit the national heroes.

Doping test should be done under international organisations. So there are no conflict of interest. This is just pure bullshit. There is no doubt about what he has said, and the police and doping agencies should be right up his ass, and getting every piece of information he has. |

Cycling hasn't chased anyone? Well the big names who served bans would disagree and anyway cycling didn't chase Armstrong, I remember when Landis came out and implicated Armstrong that McQuaid and a whole heap defending Armstrong, USADA went after Armstrong (and others in that case so it wasn't all about LA) and they got him, he could of taken a ban but fought it and got a lifetime ban so it's all on him. He can laugh at this case all he wants but its a hollow laugh as no injustice was done to Armstrong

Is that not the right timeframe for it to be Jonathan Tiernan Locke, former Sky rider?

That's a very good shout. Thinking about it, there can't be that many other suspended British sportspeople, and JTL seems to fit the description pretty well.

Not really surprising is it? Football and doping go hand in hand

Allegations have been denied by those three clubs, and all the players had doped independently as opposed to with the support of clubs.
Allegedly.

On the comments about how it was, apparently it was a runner so nothing to do with cycling. As for involved British Cyclists it's a rather small number apparently. I'd be surprised at Sky, they've got their own programme Same for anyone in the Olympic system. For cyclists i'd expect it to be those at a lower level than WT or Olympics, so who gives a f*ck about them
