[Other Sport] Russia facing a ban from major international sporting events (maybe)

[Taybha]

So after decades of blatant government sponsored cheating, it looks like time may at last have caught up with Russia as a sporting nation.

In a recent study it seems good old mother Russia had deleted thousands of dodgy specimen results from the compiled database.

Will the rest of the world actually have the bottle to finally stick together and lob the ruskies out or will it be a 2 grand fine and a telling off?

The story is on the BBC sport site can't copy it in atm.

Interesting stuff and surely they will finnaly cop it

They will blatantly deny everything, even when the evidence is waved under their noses - and it'll all go away. Same as usual...

As is customary, for this thread (of which there has been many) I urge anybody who is interested to watch Oscar winning documentary:-





Keep with it through the first half an hour, it's not the film it thought it would be.

^^^ Great documentary. Grigory Rodchenko is a likeable character.

I'll believe it when I see it.
