Yohan Blake, Lansford Spence, Marvin Anderson and Allodin Fothergill have all admitted to taking a banned stimulant prior to the Jamaican National Championships in June.

All four appeared on Wednesday before an appeals tribunal put together by Jamaica's Sports Ministry

The four athletes were forced to sit out the recent World Championships in Berlin, and while a disciplinary panel had initially cleared them, that ruling was appealed by the Jamaican Anti-Doping Commission.

The tribunal cleared Sheri-Ann Brooks on Thursday because her backup sample was tested without her knowledge

Four Jamaican sprinters face two year ban | More than the games

Good...I'm glad they've been banned and I was in support of the Jamaican Althletic Federation's decision to make them sit out Berlin..Our athletes are already under a microscope so adopting a zero tolerance stance on cheating is a the best way to clean up the image of the sport...They should have been banned for 5 years..Disgraceful. Funnily enough...all these althletes train in the US while the ones really doing well relying on yam and dumpling...

Naw, they didn't get banned they might get a 2 year ban yes. But they will walk away with a warning.

And you don't know what you're talking about, all these athletes didn't train in the US.
