THE INTERNATIONAL PARALYMPIC COMMITTEE has banned all Russian athletes from the 2016 Paralympic Games that take place later this month.
It represents a complete contrast to the International Olympic Committee’s decision to allow 70% of Russian athletes compete in Rio despite Richard McLaren’s remarkable Wada-commissioned report into the country’s state-sponsored doping practices
The Guardian reported yesterday that the IPC board had met with Russian officials during the week to hear their arguments after initially issuing a provisional suspension.
The move to go ahead and ban the nation serves to keep an unrelenting spotlight on the IOC after they chose to allow international federations decide if Russian athletes should compete in Rio.

Jake o Brien came from the french league as well but maybe that was Dyche.
He needs to adapt fast to pl for Wolves sake.
Wolves need to get in another centre half and hold on to Cunha and they should be ok.
