Winter Olympics 2022
- Thread starter SPG
- Start date
Simple, strip the cheater of her medal. 15 or not the rules are clear.
The UK has/had good chances in some of the mental ski/border cross events but I think a few of those ships have sailed as well now.
Most UK ice rinks are ancient and need replacing + we do things stupidly and never make them Olympic sized when we build them.

Ahh thanks, explains the situation a little more. (I hate figure skating as its a waste of a good ice-rink which should be used for speed skating or ICE-Hockey)
Personally the right course of action for me is to remove the individual from the team and hence the points, if the rest of the team are hopefully clean, then their efforts should still stand, they have put the work in for the past 4 years to get to the Olympics and if their team effort is good enough for Bronze then bloody well done them.
The next Olympics the country should be banned from that very same competition though. Russia will never learn, they really must have some cracking chemists.

would love to play it though.The IOC are a shambles, would love to know what claws Russia have in that organisation.
In my eyes their is zero excuse, yes she is 15 and quite possibly a victim in all of this but this is sport cheating runs deeper than the individual in this situation allowing her to compete again is a serious kick in the teeth to everyone else.

Zero sympathy
Yep. Should not have been even allowed to step on the ICE, The ICO itself is killing the Olympics with its pathetic weak stance.
