What he did was wrong, got punished and did his time, so I think he should be allowed.

****ing hell, he's our most realistic chance of winning a medal at 100m, that's how ****ing **** we are.

He cheated. He admitted he cheated, he knew the consequences, he shouldn't be allowed to compete.

It sets a bad example for t'kids so it does.

We have plenty of contenders for medals in other events.

He clearly stated in an interview on inside sport before that he thought no Olympian could win a gold without using some drugs.

I think that's disgraceful and disrespectful to every athlete and therefore he should never compete again.

He should be allowed to compete, the guy has done the drugs, done his time, lost out on money and sponsorship and was turned into public enemy number 1 when he was tested positive for THG. Despite all that he's got himself clean worked hard, and proven to himself and to the public that he's the best we've got for 100m success, and at the age of what 34?!!!

He ain't too far off with his comments either about needing drugs to win gold. How many of these ****in yanks have you seen admit after years of glory coming out and saying they used drugs, Marion Jones et al.

If anything I'd say he's a good example to this country, he could've quit athletics after all that, but he's stuck with his guns trained hard, and clean, he's had 13 drug tests in 6 months, he's been banned from various athletics meets all round Europe, he's had a lot of stick but fair play to him for sticking with it. Everyone deserves a 2nd chance to a certain extent, Chambers should be given one too.

I think they should let him, he did wrong and paid the price. Loads of people do it and get given another chance.

So Should He

I voted no as it sets bad precedent. After his comments about no one winning gold without being on drugs just puts the icing on the cake.

The cheating cunt should not be allowed to compete in Peking, he knows the rules and they clearly state that if you’re a cheating twat than you have to piss off.
For starters he never helped the BOC investigate the coaches and other people involved in the drug taking, never said sorry to his team mates who lost their medals thanks to him.
He should be put in chains and made to pick cotton for the rest of his life.

Of course he should. He has proven that he is the best in the Uk without drugs. The BEST sportsmen in each catogory go to the olympics. You don't just go there because you're a nice guy for ****s sake.

People are idiots.

I've never done drugs but I'm **** at running, I should go to the olympics!

People say he has done his time and should be allowed to compete but the BOA have clear rules on this. Once you are caught drug taking you are banned for however long from all competitions and then when you get back you can compete at world or European level.

BUT NOT AT THE OLYMPICS.

The rules were written before Chambers committed his offence and they should stand. I stuck up for him when people didn't like him competing full stop. He had done his time and he can compete in every competition other than the Olympics. I don't see how you can change the rules just for one person.

Saying that, the whole medals vs morals issue comes up. He is obviously Team GB's best sprinter and he could probably push for a time just shading 10secs, but he did the crime and he has to pay the price.

This is the thing though, the rules for the Olympics allow him to compete. It's only a british bye-law.

It's the right decision.

Chambers wouldn't have won a medal anyway. If he pushes as hard as he can go he could probably shade 10 seconds but I don't think that will be enough for a medal with Bolt, Gay and Powell around.

agreed, you have to run 9.8's consistently to stand a chance of getting a medal. British sprinting is pretty crap right now.

Ha Ha Chambers not going to the olympics serves him right cheating bastard

people said he made a mistake no he made a conscious decision to cheat he weighed up the risk and reward and decided to take the chance ,nuff said

also people claiming he done his time let him go he did not serve his time he got a life time ban ,people should be glad Britain take such a strong stance on these type of incidents it sets the standard that cheats won't prosper or be tollerated

You never know. Linford got lucky and same could have happened to Chambers if one or two of the others messed up. Remember how dominant world record holder Jackson finished fourth? Nobody gave a **** about the other guys who got medals it was all about Colin.
