ID request. Possible Liberty Caps found in Irish Horse field.

I was out with a friend today enjoying the sunshine with her and her horse and when we were done and putting her horse back in the field I noticed a familiar looking shroom growing outta a pile of Horse poop in the damper areas so I grabbed a sample to check out to see if they were magic 
I've taken plenty of shrooms but always of the bought variety so never hunted before. SO any help is greatly appreciated.
 The whole messy lot.
 The caps.
 The stalks.
 Gills.
 Opened a stalk up to make sure was solid.
Habitat: Found in an untended field horses are kept in growing from manure or beside in the dampest part of field and were mostly in areas which would recieve shade for part of day.
Gills: Younger specimens are dark brown and free and light at edges, older appear almost black. Have a spore print on go from a bit of the big one aa medium one and a little baby one, will update tmoz with pics.
Stem: WHite/very light cream, turning to a lightess brown as they dry. They appear snapped in pics cause they were in my pocket XD as I had no bag for them but were not brittle at all, i.e. could wrap stalk round finger without breakage.
Cap: Small specimens are light cream and darken a little toward tip, larger lightish brown and little darker toward tip, all darkening a little with drying.
Spore Print: On way.
Bruising: no colour visible
Location: Donegal, the north of Ireland.
Maybe worth noting the younger specimens have an obvious slimy coating on cap which you can sorta peel off if you rub at it and is like a memebrane or something, like the stuff you get inside onions a bit.
Thanks in advance, There are more I'm sure so if they're legit I should be able to fill a bag I think :O

arite m8, definitely not lib caps, maybe ink caps..have the gills gone mushy yet? think you got one panaeolus in there but don't eat any, they no good...search panaeolus cinctulus, I think that's the only active growing in the uk until autumn comes..

Hey man, thanks for taking a look . You think the big boy that's mangled is a Panaeolus? It was in a patch with another one and at picking looked more like teh little ones but kinda fell apart in pocket unfortunately. Only real difference in it was darker looking gills.
The gills arn't mushy at all on little ones, big ones a little
