The story will allege that UKAD ignored-- or covered up-- whistlebowers implicating massive dopping in British sports.
Football? Reminds me of the discussions a few years ago when the German Telekom Team collapsed.. The head of the German Bayern Munich Football Team said "great we can now charge more for logos on our jerseys".. When confronted with the possibility that football players dopped and why they are not being tested.. the answer from the DFB (German Football League) was "we don't need to test since dopping can benefit football players".. amusing given that the 1954 German World Cup win saw the Germans all were on Pervitin (Methamphetamine):

And today.. That players like Messi have clearly admited to have been dopped since early youth.. and the DFB. http://www.welt.de/newsticker/sport-news/article138205916/DFB-Vize-Koch-Doping-Spekulationen-unserioes-und-inakzeptabel.html
Dopping unfortunately was and is common.. (and unfortunately I've even been caught surprized by people I know that have since admited to dopping)..
