We have just heard that Krassimir Ivanov has been appointed by our
Performance department...
Ivanov recently left his job with the Belgian Canoe Federation ostensibly to
spend more time with his family (so, why is he coming here???), but it seems
that his calls for the 'liberalisation' of performance-enhancing drugs might
have featured to tip the balance in the decision to let him go.

With a backdrop like this, what are the BCU doing even thinking about
interviewing such a person? With the Olympics in London just around the
corner and the claim that we need to inspire the youth of the world, how can
this man be trusted with our paddlers and our sport?
