    This time it's more serious though. My guess is that either the IWF must either be replaced by another governing body or completely and genuinely reformed if it wants to keep its place in Paris

    Are there updated lists of qualifiers now that the Colombians have been reduced?

    He's provisionally selected (fair enough, there's no one to take his place) but he faces an enquiry before he can go to Tokyo. https://www.britishathletics.org.uk/news-and-features/a-further-65-athletes-nominated-to-represent-team-gb-at-the-2020-tokyo-olympic-games/ Team of 72 so far

    The announcement of the GBR team has been delayed because the 5000m runner Andy Butchart has been accused a faking a COVID test to get back into the country

    Does anyone know whether Simon Martirosyan of Armenia has been cleared to compete at 109 kg in Tokyo?

    I'm sure he will retire from serious athletics although he'll probably run a few marathons for the money.

    By the way if you want to educate yourself on how the British conservatives were hypocrites, and just plain shits back then, google "The D'Oliveira Affair"

    The year when left wing students protested so much that the Labour Party changed their policy from tolerating South African sporting visitors to actively opposing them,
  11. Dragon
    No, you're wrong. The Labour Government in 1977 help draft the Gleneagles Agreement helping to isolate Apartheid South Africa from international sport. At the same time, the Conservative party were still taking large contributions from people involved in the South African government,
  12. Dragon
    Absolutely right. GBR were one of the worst culprits but that's the problem with having a very conservative government back then, They were too cowardly to put honest sport over dirty money.

    Back at the start of the 80s the South African Apartheid government used to squeal about keeping politics out of sport. Forty years later people on both sides of the argument now accept the sporting boycott of South Africa was very important in stopping the subjugation of black people in the country and allowing Mandela to become President,

    If you change the word "politics" to "morality", would you still agree with that statement?

    "the UK gets an average of 30-50 tornadoes a year. That’s more tornadoes per land area than anywhere else in the world (except – weirdly – the Netherlands.)" One of the strangest facts I know...

    So I decided to give this report the headline that would be most helpful to the IWF. I went for: "IWF not accused of killing cute little puppies to make fur coats for billionaires" Because they're accused of almost everything else... https://www.iwf.net/wp-content/uploads/downloads/2021/06/ITA-Final-Report-on-IWF.pdf

    Looks like it. Also Cam Norrie, who reached an ATP final last week.
