Jonzjob Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Well, t's official, the Ruskies have been banned and a summery of that goesCas banned ROC from ROG2016 and Cas said ROC are not eligible to nominate RA for ROG under IAAF rules. The IAAF said it was pleased that Cas supported its position.

idun Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Having lived part of my life with an athlete, I can but feel for some of these competitors who have lost the right to go. I really do not believe that 'all' the competitors have been up to mischief. And for the honest ones, I do hope that there will be some way of competing. Mind you, with zika maybe in the long run, these people may have been done a favour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonzjob Posted July 21, 2016 Author Share Posted July 21, 2016 If you have a read of the link it gives them C and further down there is an explanation of how the goodie ones can compete along with how those nice sporting people in Ruskie Land cheat.The Russian Olympic Committee (ROC)Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas)Russian athletes (RA I made that one up [geek] well everyone else was doing it)International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF)Rio Olympic Games (ROG I made that one up too [8-)] but I thought the 2016 would have been a clue?))It should be a good show, starting with the police welcome at the airport welcoming people to HELL? I haven't liked the Olys for ages and this is just putting me further off them. Rio really can't afford them, but a few people will make a shed load from it while the majority will pay for it.

Chancer Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Tiredness is taking its toll on me, after the explanations of the acronyms I was left thinking what on earth does "C" mean [blink] I am not on the same page with you humour Wise at the moment! Customers leaving this morning and I am not recognising them and speaking to them in the wrong language [:'(] I dont like mornings especially when I have to get up early in case others do but of course they dont [:(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonzjob Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 I think (not very often, bad for my brain cell) that 'C' is the first letter in the word Chancer [8-)]But I could be wrong, but no, that cannot be 'cause I have never bin knowed to make a mastike init [8-)][:-))] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
