He should be careful what he wishes for.
Fine, going the Qatar or Bahrain route of picking out single top athletes.
But here in Britain we have a Mo Farah, but we also have over a quarter of a million fellow Somali’s, plus more living here with EU passports, who have a 70% unemployment rate, most on welfare and benefits and their main occupation is criminal activity - just like back home.
I’d willingly forego a couple of Olympic and world championships medals to boot the whole lot back to that piss-hole from whence they came.

B grade Kenyans aren't getting world medals. Unless the Russians are willing to bribe top athletes they will only get runners capable of winning tier two and three road races and marathons. Also no world class sprinter is going to live in that country unless they get seriously bribed as the cost of living in Moscow is the highest in the world.

Is "black athletes" a euphemism for PEDs? That's Russia's normal strategy, no?
-
Hahaha, yeah beanies are blacks....

Just think of how weak American track, boxing, and B-ball would be without black athletes.

Black Russians.
LOL, not the ones in a glass, either.
ROFL. -
What's the point of having European Champs if Africans compete? It should be kept for Europeans. Those federations/managers that are flooding the races with foreigners are ruining the sport.
Is it entertaining to watch 4-5 Kenyan runners competing at the EUROPEAN championships? Will it save European track and field? I don't think so. -
No black athlete in their right mind would want to compete for the racist hellhole Russia.

yeah really...the thought of it is hilarious...

Russian women win over 90% of their medals in T&F. Look at tennis and
all the Russian women.I can't remember a Russian man winning anything. -
Russian men still do quite well in the high jump and triple jump
-
Male athletics are much more competitive. i also soccer grabs the best athletes. Similar to football in America or baseball for White people.
-
are there ANY black russian citizens? i agree you need blacks to be good in any sport. that is just a fact.

What total bollocks.
