That UCI has made such a mess of the sport for so long and got a way with it, what has Cookson got to worry about on that score? McQuaid was looking at another 4 years till he made a complete mess of USADA's reasoned decision and bent over backwards, frontwards, sidewards to try and protect Armstrong till it was obvious Armstrong was under the bus.
Cookson will probably not make the same mistakes, just like Sky have (more or less) not made the same mistakes as USPS.
If Cooskon doesn't make anti doping independent it would be feasible to 'dedicate' himself to Sky as the doping results arrive onto his desk before going anywhere...........
He has to make it independent, otherwise he knows thats what everyone will say. Im confident this will happen and something i will judge him on instantly if it does not.
