Probably right to be honest. Just opens the door for various other political statements (yeah, yeah I know) if they allow it. Safer to just draw a line under it.

No, I think ioc are quite right it would open the door to anyone doing the same for any conflict/politcal motivation.

I think I agree with you. But I also read that the photos are of people he knew, former fellow athletes. Also the poppy in itself is a symbol of remembrance that is positively encouraged at sporting events. So maybe not quite so cut and dry.

It's a tough one, but there's the risk that one of the "neutral" competitors chooses to do the same for fallen people they know. The IOC is then faced with having to allow that and facing likely backlash, or allow a different approach to Ukrainian and Russian competitors. They took the safe course, which on balance, I think is the right one.

The IOC were prepared to allow a black armband, so they’re not ruling out a “political statement” unitarily. Difficult to draw a line in the sand, and I wouldn’t have fancied being in the discussions with the Ukrainian slider telling him the limits of the IOC-approved levels of grief allowed on track.
badgerx16 Posted yesterday at 11:17 Posted yesterday at 11:17 Great Britain men playing Italy in the curling, first end: GB lying 1 shot up with 6 stones in the house, 2 British and 4 Italian, have the last stone of the end. The skipper could play safe and easily score 1, but gets greedy and tries to get a 2 - ends up removing all the GB stones and leaves the Italians scoring 4. 1
badgerx16 Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago (edited) Further to the banning of the Ukrainian's helmet, Italian snowboarder Roland Fischnaller displayed a Russian flag on his helmet without comment or action by the IOC. Edited 15 hours ago by badgerx16 1

You could see see exactly when the camera showed the jumper’s view at the very top of the platform. Like jumping from the away end at Newcastle (if you’ve watched Saints there you’ll know what I mean). Edited 4 hours ago by Gloucester Saint
