A lot of attention needs to be focused on athletics in Britain, especially now the 2012 Olympics will be held there.

According to our information the Greek team leader was informed but not the athletes. To our mind this doesn't constitute a refusal.
|
Based on this position of the IAAF, we believe that the consequence should be that the medals are taken back,
|
If there is a positive test available, this is the only way the IAAF can proceed,
|
In the absence of facts, the IAAF cannot and will not do anything,
|
It certainly is a positive signal and indicates a desire and wish to show the world that they want to have a clean sport.
|
It doesn't do good to the sport unless you adopt the cynical view that all publicity is good publicity.
|
The consequences are implied. If the result is annulled, you don't get the medals for a result that doesn't stand. If someone is not eligible, that athlete cannot have a valid result.
|
We don't consider it a triumph. We consider it our moral obligation.
|
We follow the ethics of our British friends with some anxiety,
|
We have no problem with that. Whether or not they can compete in the trials, we leave it in the hands of USA Track & Field.
