few months ago we woke up one day with the suspicion that a number of elite English athletes were involved in a doping scheme. Operation Greyhound. Little by little news leaking to the press and met the suspicions that fell on Marta DomÃnguez, Bezabeh, Reyes Estevez and Nuria Fernandez. Statements in court appearances, television, radio, newspaper pages, the views of commentators usual-well unfathomable knowledge-etc.
Meanwhile, the union of English athletics cracks. The penalty for doping Jose Luis Blanco, Fernández Paquillo returning to racing after serving his ban, doubts about the cleanliness in the methods of some, a Federation weakened and unable to take control of their sport. Many doubts. Great uncertainty.
And over time.
English justice will not be characterized precisely by its speed in resolving issues. Quite the contrary. Just today
just know that the prosecution proposes a penalty for the Doctor Eufemiano Fuentes, involved in Operation Greyhound, but in this case for participation in Operation Puerto, which dates back to 2006, ie almost five years.
If justice has ruled that operation - the Port-promptly and with due forcefulness may not have given this - the Greyhound.
Will we have to wait five years to know what the prosecutor proposed to the defendants in this case? If so some athletes involved will be withdrawn because of age without the penalty imposed may affect them in their athletic career. Other athletes, innocent, clean, it will be damaged by the delay in the resolution: one will see you close the doors of the world championships, European or even the Olympic Games or relegate them secondary positions championships in Spain.
And while some suspects but clean, other suspects and tainted by doping practices, other clean and active combatants against cheaters and other clean but quiet, desgantandose in fighting off the track, outside the habitat of athletic competition.
Please solve the water soon and return to normal.
