Everyone wants the war to end says Thomas Bach the International Olympic Committee President, as the IOC decides to wait to see what happens with international sport before deciding whether Russia and Belarus athletes can compete at Paris 2024 and Milano Cortino 2026.

They would have to be neutral athletes, no teams, and no affiliation or support for Putin or the army. So what are the Olympic waiting for? To see whether like tennis, this stance can work in sport across the world during this summer.

Anything but Footy rounds up a hectic and difficult week for the Olympic movement and we hear from Bach too.

In our news from the games there's athletics, judo, para swimming and tennis and will Olympic champion Adam Peaty be back in the pool for Paris? As he admits he's not loving swimming at the moment.

The great debate on whether athletes from Russia and Belarus could compete at next year's Paris Olympics continues, with the International Olympic Committee committing to a 'pathway' to include them as neutral competitors. It's happening in tennis, and likely to at Wimbledon this year too. But does that really work? Katherine Grainger told us recently she's unsure. And where does that leave Ukrainian athletes?

Michael and John are back together for the latest episode of Anything but Footy - the Olympic and Paralympic podcast - in a pub near the Thames in London to discuss all.

In their 'News of the Games' they round up some of the sporting headlines you may have missed, and look ahead to another busy summer of 'Anything but Footy'!

Anything but Footy runs a series called Great British Bosses where we interview men and women involved in the running of sport in this country. It's the behind the scenes conversation of British Sport.

We have had Chairs, CEOs, MDs, PDs, Head Coaches and this season guests have included Katherine Grainger (UK Sport), Greg Baker (Boccia UK), Helen Nicholls (British Equestrian) and Paul Buxton (GB Taekwondo).

In this last episode of the current season, we discuss one of the biggest Olympic sports that we know nothing about, hear how a small and passionate team is creating exciting opportunities and whether we'll ever see Team GB in the Olympic Handball tournament in the future!

Welcome to Great British Bosses, Scottish Handball CEO Ewan Hunter and Operations Manager Julia Stenhouse!

This is Great British Bosses - the behind the scenes conversation of British sport - and a real frank discussion in this episode about how this country's second most played sport among the young, gets hardly any professional attention and support.

It's something Steve Bucknall, the Head of Talent & Performance at Basketball England, has always wanted to change, and after guiding Team England to gold and silver success at last year's Commonwealth Games in Birmingham in 3x3, and further changes behind the scenes in Britain, he's already noticing the progress being made.

But as Steve says "we're focusing on football way too much". Hell yeah! Fortunately, not on this podcast or series, as we discuss Paris 2024, the wasted 2012 legacy and the not so small matter of this 6ft6 South London star, being the first English NBA player!!! A definite three pointer!
