Alan Baxter was literally robbed of a medal and what was one of the great british sporting achievements.

So unfair, .u.s. meds. different from ours, how was he to know, also it wasn't performance-enhancing. Give him his medal now.

A really decent guy who deserves that medal. According to the recent BBC article about him, it was 20 millionths of a gram...that's nothing! And come on a Vick's stick! He was an incredibly good slalom skier, a committed athlete and an inspiration. Go Alain!

performance enhancing drugs are banned, this did not improve his performance

I think he was hard done by then and he's still being hard done by now!

Allan is a great guy who I have met and skied with on many occations.He could probably get it now as he still skies out of this world.

It seems very harsh to deny some one over a nose inhaler having different ingrediants once side of the atlantic compared to the other side. Surely some common sense should have prevailed!!

I think it is disgusting that he was penalised for a nasal inhaler.........
