| Quote Mrs Barista="Mrs Barista"Now the dust has settled (slightly), do we think there will be sanctions against the club?
In our favour I see:
None of the convicted are at the club, and neither are others who may be involved (Hetherington, Agar, Long)
Follow-up tests in the last 6 months have all been negative
Further action would see potentially a legal case between someone who's just put a few mill into one the comp's best supported clubs and the Hetheringtons who seem beloved by the RFL - not sure they'd want a public bunfight over it.
When Keiron Cunningham got done for HCG, he escaped punishment because a Saints conditioner had administered it to him without his knowledge. IMO this is more evidence of a club's complicity in a drugs culture than what has transpired at FC, and AFAIK Saints weren't punished as a club? Maybe someone can correct me on this?
Against us:
Club CEO orchestrated cover-up
We employed an incompetent conditioner who didn't exercise the right level of control
There's been shedloads of bad PR for the game.
Thoughts?'"
Club bias aside, we should be punished IMO. The fact is that although those involved are no longer here, our CEO was involved in trying to cover up the events surrounding a failed drugs test which is a disgrace for a senior official of any sporting club. If it were any other club I'd be of the opinion they should be punished so I can't change my views just because it's my club.
If there are no sanctions, then where is the incentive for no one to do it again? |

Still don't understand what Rule thought he would gain by not letting Gleeson and Cooper take the fall. As others have said, it was hardly the greatest season ever and we were never serious challengers.
Let them get bans and walk away embarrassed but safe. Poor judgement again from Mr R

I'm sure there is much more to this than we will ever know |

Wouldn't surprise me at all. If the RFL do decide to hold a full enquiry it might turn up some very interesting stuff. |

There have been sanctions - against the people who committed the offences. All three of them have very likely had their careers terminated. What extra deterrent would it be for people who weren't even at the club at the time to be sanctioned? |

Any punishment will be for bringing the game into disrepute rather than the offences that took place. |

Plenty of deterrent at Hull and other clubs to not do anything in the future if it means a fine or points deduction. Otherwise you just get some other sap to be the fall guy next time |
