Alain won his bronze medal with sheer talent and years of hard work. The argument against him was desperately weak and the decision to take the medal away was an absolute disgrace.

Natural justice should see Baxter reinstated and given his medal back.

Now that all attention is on Sochi it's time to remember that Alain was cleared of cheating. His medal should be reinstated to him.

I am a medical doctor and I have every sympathy with Alain Baxter. He did not know the Vicks spray in the USA contains a banned substance, and he is innocent of any intention to cheat. It in no way assisted him. Please reinstate him.
