surely rather than destroy them they would be a perfect Damian Hurst style modern Art installation

Yep, use the blood to fill this:

well exhuming skeletons from the past is perhaps not always best for a sport so not sorry about the news

what i'd like to see happen is the other sports investigated and the full list of names published \ leaked online.

We know this went into football but it seems FIFA \ UEFA just turned a blind eye and said this can't be true. With the other sports having more money they were able to hush this all up

No sport really wants to lift up the stone. The Spanish cycling federation didn't want to act despite all the evidence in public, you can't imagine other sports wanting to do something.

Thankfully WADA has the power to act, that is what it's for*.

Not sure how much good WADA will actually be. We saw with the Vrijman report and others all they do is ask UEFA \ FIFA or the UCI etc to look into something for them then stuff just gets passed backwards and forwards or ignored

The Vrijman report was commissioned by the UCI, Hein Verbruggen literally appointed a friend to write a report into the matter.

wasn't there some dialogue with WADA over it where they said it wasn't good enough and then the UCI just did nothing. Might be thinking about another case here though.
