    Politics does through.

    Would it be the a lot of the European games that need moving. Not just Fencinf that might be letting the Russians back.

    They will ultimately lose because the Olympics will either get cancelled or boycotted to the extent that it is discredited.
  5. Orangehair43
    It’s a risky strategy. It relies on the pressure of their absence causing federations and countries then ban Russians and Belarusians. Could well work.

    I can’t see them backing them for long once Putin demands they do not.
  8. Orangehair43
    Considering the IOC are in the pocket of Putin I suspect they will do it.

    It’s probably to stop a legal challenge. Russia love taking things to sport courts.

    Who do so few countries want to host indoor events. Poland, Serbia and the UK seem always be hosting them.

    Going to be interesting to see if the new DSD rules get through the inevitable CAS court case.

    Women’s biathlon is not in a great shape really with so many retiring and not many younger names coming through.
  13. Orangehair43
    Still got the big issue of Russia and Belarus and if they will be banned or not.
  14. Orangehair43
    Apparently the poll said they would support that.
  15. Orangehair43
    It be popular among the public of many countries. A poll the ither showed the majority of Americans wanted a ban on Russian players at American tournaments.

    I think Wimbledon will be cancelled going by the ATP statement
  17. Orangehair43
    What’s the betting CAS makes a rapid decision if Russian and Belarusian tennis players go to court.
  18. Orangehair43
    Then accept you can’t play sport for a while because.
  19. Orangehair43
    All Russians who refuse to outright condemn Putin are scum. Refusing to ban scum is the disgrace.
  20. Orangehair43
    It’s not only that. Many countries won’t allow Russians into compete anyway.
  21. Orangehair43
    Oh sorry. hard to see many of the luge hosting countries letting Russian and Belarusian competitors in it will be a moot point anyway.
  22. Orangehair43
    It see sporting bodies simply withdrawing from CAS jurisdiction. I feel like CAS has decided to show it’s not biased by choosing a sport with no real activity until November instead of deciding on the many sports ongoing at the moment. But CAS knows it’s funding and backing would be gone if it made decisions many national governments would simply overturn at the border.

    Athletics suffers further reputation damage eveytime someone competes after returning from a doping ban
  24. Orangehair43
    I think the lack of medals will see athletes ordered to focus on the commonwealth instead of the worlds. In an attempt to be seen to be justifying the lottery money in a home event.
  25. Orangehair43
    Really our only realsltic medal hopeful. I don’t think there has been a world indoor with no British medalist in years but I am not sure we even in the relay with Keely out? Is there a reserve.
