Without a doubt there will be players heading to court. I think (and hope) that it will be so murky as to who did what to who and who is responsible for it that it wont be successful.
The players have admitted guilt the substances were banned but they were by all reports never forced to take it.
They were definitely aware that the substances were not normal - one even queried (to the laughter of teammates) what "equine" meant.
The club (as in the Ltd company) never purchased any of these supplements (that has been reported).
I think (and again hope) there will more then enough doubt as the responsibility for the cases to not be successful.
Every player had the right to say no, or to ask the status bla bla bla, aswell as they are obliged too aswell. Its not like elkin tied em up while Dank ran along jabbing them.
The players may have brokered a deal but they cant walk away having held no responsibility either. an honest man would take the 3 game ban, thank their lucky stars and get on with life.
