The Kennaugh brothers had no choice but to pull out of this year's Commonwealth Games in Delhi.
That's the view of Isle of Man Newspapers Sports Editor John Watterson after both Peter and Tim pulled out of the Manx cycling squad shortly before the team left for India.
There were high medal hopes for both riders, but John Watterson believes the Kennaughs were put in a situation where they had no other alternative:-
Cycling: Bostock nominated for national champion of the year
Manxman one of six riders on British Cycling shortlist
Football: Railway Cup hopefuls all maintain pace in premier league
Castletown stay four points clear atop Division 2
Rugby: Vagabonds Ladies stay top with another victory
Vagabonds men and Douglas also take respective wins on home soil
Hockey: Harlequins A beat rivals to close in on prem leaders
Bacchas B take important victory in battle for top-flight safety
