Bloodgate is big news - and it’s about to get even bigger…
Dean Richards’ resignation has thrust Bloodgate onto the front and back pages - but details of the cover-ups remain outside the public domain.
That’s until Paul Kelso, sports news correspondent for the Daily Telegraph, arrives on the scene.
While Kelso, now a Sky news correspondent, starts to release details of the murky aftermath to the cheating plot, Tom Williams prepares to reveal all.
Everything comes to a head at a hearing in Glasgow, with life-changing consequences for some of the key figures in the Bloodgate plot.
