Rejected petition olympic medal ceremony for cheated athletes at next games

More details

Athletes who lost out on medals at London 2012 because of dope cheats should have a medal ceremony at the start of the 2016 games, giving them the chance to receive their medals with the full honours they missed out on.
Nothing can replace the feeeling of receiving a medal whilst at the games with flag raising and anthems.
