Okay. Maybe it's just me, but I'm going to bloody well point out the obvious that nobody else seems to be commenting on. The BIL and the Quidditch Commission decided on these new policies? Oh yes, lets get the organisation that seems to only give a damn about the owners' interests and the bloody Ministry together to cover their own arses. Who gives a fuck about the players who are under pressure from the owners and managers? Obviously neither the Quidditch Commission nor the BIL as they didn't think it fit to include the Players' Union to their bloody summit.

Who's watching the watchers?

I am confused. What are you saying? The players are under pressure to what? Win? Yes of course but we do not need to confuse that pressure of winning with the need to use illegal substances.

You don't think the Kestrel's owner knew? Probably the manager and medic too. The man jumped ship like a rat as soon as the story broke, taking the medic with him. It's only a matter of time until Cavallero comes under fire.

Yes I do not disagree with you at all on that about the Kestrels, but I do not understand what that has to do with what you are saying precisely.

I doubt the players willingly took the potions and instead felt increasing pressure to do what the owner/manager wanted. However, it is the players who are replaced and made scapegoats. Meanwhile the owner gets to make a shiny profit selling the team and the manager gets to keep his job.

You do not think a person is responsible for their own actions? Very - what is the word I am looking for? - cínico, sí.

I don't know what the hell Travers thinks he's saying about the PU. Of course they didn't know, it's not their bloody job. They're there to protect the rights of players. Funny how the organisations actually responsible for monitoring legalities prevented the people who protect us from joining the table.

I fault the players too, in a sense. They should have at least felt able to come to the PU in order to protect them from the owner and manager's retaliation.

The Players Union should 100% have been invited. No question whatsoever.

And yet they weren't. So people question why we're suspicious.

It's almost as if players are considered expendable cogs in the great Quidditch machine...

Let me clarify -

You think it's unfair for the Ministry to ask that all professional players that are part of the BIL to be clean and free of illicit substances?

[info]errordynamic

What I'm saying is that it's unfair that the Players' Union was excluded from whatever the Quidditch Commission and BIL dreamt up during their little conclave.

The players union failed to notice the indiscretion within their community. That is not the fault of the Ministry.

The BIL failed to police their own and yet they were instrumental in forming these new polices. What makes the BIL different from the Players' Union?
