  1. Trump confirms he will reinstate his travel bans if he gets relented. FIFA and the IOC should prepare for countries to be refused entry to the USA.
  2. GB will very much only send about 25 individual athletes plus relay. Even stricter than Budapest
  3. https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1142049/brisbane-gabba-pressure Could be a pretty small and dated mainstadium.
  4. The actual pot of money within the lottery is dropping as it is suffering reduced player numbers,
  5. Decent chance won’t win more than one medal in Paris which would probably cause a major funding cut (Lottery funding is rapidly falling.) and a removal of as a major gymnastics player,
  6. I have a feelings to going to be a bad games for . 40 medals total at the most and some sports doing so badly funding gets removed.
  7. I think the dooojg scandals in the Hurdles will be what could kill these champs.
  8. https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1139849/ukraine-russia-paris-2024-clarification 35 countries are planning a boycott of the Paris.
  9. https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1139729/verkhovna-rada-ukraine-russia-belarus How many countries will follow that.
  10. Are the IOC prepared in case a President at the time bans certain nations from entering the country to compete. If Trump is President I am skeptical if he would allow countries like Iran and maybe even Cuba and/or China to compete.
  11. Canada pull out of 2030 now so is suspect the end is coming for the Commonwealth Games.
  12. Seems to be quite rare that a doper fails a test in the current day and then fails a retest as well.
  13. GB are deliberately making sure ratings go down. People in the UK love watching Brits yet by having such a small team there are less to watch and interest will wain. The global field of athletics doesn’t really attract viewers at the moment so there are not many non British names who are a draw to the casual audience.
  14. Still think the games will descend into farce because of the inevitable Ukraine and its allies boycotting it.
  15. When will the Chinese swimming team be busted.
  16. Athletics won’t be around in 10 years as Doping will kill off what is left of its viewing figures.
  17. Arguably Swimming in Particular is one of the more expensive sports to host because they are few facilities that are both big enough and have enough seats to not make it seem tiny. Like London still has the Olympic pool but the seating facilities are pretty small and couldn’t really be used for an able bodied world champs or a commonwealth games. (I attended a session of the World Para there in 2019.)
  18. Doesn’t sound like the government are interested as they have urged Australia to find a solution.
  19. The BOA wouldn’t be able to sustain the pressure if the Government and media really pushed them to boycott. It’s not 1980 anymore.
