    Looks like AAI forgot to include the following link on their twitter page for the weekend's athletics news:

    In fairness there is not a whole lot of news in that article about AAI, that is not already known, and does not deserve the "AAI ... in the dock" headline.

    However it is reasonable to open the question as to why the ISC micro-manages certain sporting organisations.

    Actually 100% factually accurate to state AAI in the dock - the High Court case in which they are named as defendants is due to start in the first week in March. If there is no out of court settlement, word is that it could last for anything up to a month. A number of members of the AAI Executive Board have already been served papers to appear as witnesses. The implications of this case are potentially enormous - financially and otherwise. And no matter what anyone on this forum says, plenty of us will be more than a little curious to hear what is revealed in the course of the case....both about the AAI and the ISC - if there has been wrongdoing, it is good that people will be held to account and the serious nature of the High Court may give some hope that it won't happen again - or is that too much to hope for
