After a poor start to the 2003 season, Chambers' performances at the 2003 World Championships were below par, except for anchoring the leg of the silver medal-winning 4x100 metres Great Britain relay team.

He was given a two-year ban from athletics by UK Athletics after a disciplinary hearing on 22 February 2004, backdated to August 2003. He was also banned for life from the Olympics and stripped of the medals he had won since 2002 after admitting that he had taken THG from that date.

Chambers' coach Korchemny was revealed as one of four men involved with a USADA investigation into BALCO lab, on charges in the United States of distributing illegal drugs to athletes.

Life during the ban

Chambers had been considering a switch to American Football prior to the ban^[5] to emulate his hero Renaldo Nehemiah.^[6] He tried out with Nehemiah's old team the San Francisco 49ers, but it came to nothing.

On May 26, 2006, the IAAF asked him to return all the money he earned in 2003 (thought to be close to £180,000) before he could return to competition. The IAAF also stripped him of his European gold medal and annulled his British record, recorded prior to his positive test but within the time during which he admitted using THG. In fact, the European record had already been broken by Francis Obikwelu of Portugal, who ran 9.86 in the Athens 2004 Olympics.

Inside Sport interview

In May 2007, as he prepared for the new NFL Europa season, Chambers gave an interview to four times Olympic Gold medal rower Sir Matthew Pinsent, for the BBC's Inside Sport programme.^[7] In the interview, Chambers claimed there will always be athletes using performance-enhancing drugs because the scientists will remain one step ahead of the testers:^[8] Year 2007 (MMVII) was a common year starting on Monday of the Gregorian calendar in the 21st century. ...

It's simple, science always moves faster than the testers. Some people take chances, some don't, and I was willing to take that chance," he said in an interview with the BBC's Inside Sport programme. "I was under the assumption that I wouldn't get caught."

When asked whether a clean athlete was likely to beat one using drugs in an Olympic final, Chambers added:

It's possible, but the person that's taken drugs has to be having a real bad day. That's what I believe.

Chambers was roundly condemned for his comments in the interview by both the press and his former colleagues in the athletics world, including Sir Steve Redgrave, Mo Farah, and Lord Coe, although former 100m world record holder Asafa Powell supported Chambers' claims.^[9][10][11] Image:Stevebook. ...

Return to athletics

2006

Chambers made his return to athletics in June 2006, competing in the Norwich Union British Grand Prix at Gateshead.

All were well below his personal and season's best. However, Chambers was part of the victorious British 4x100m team. Darren Campbell, who was angry at losing his medals from the 2003 World Championships, refused to join the team in a celebratory lap, due to Chambers' inclusion in the team. Campbell allegedly did not want Chambers to even be in the team on account of his record.^[12] Official logo The 19th European Championships in Athletics were held in Gothenburg, Sweden, between August 7 and August 13, 2006. ...

2008

Following the collapse of the NFL Europa franchise (see below), Chambers made a second return to athletics in early 2008. Competing in the 60m indoor final at the Birmingham Games on 3 February, he finished in 6.60 secs - a new meeting record - and comfortably inside the 6.90 standard for the UK trials for the 2008 IAAF World Indoor Championships event.^[15] The 2008 IAAF World Indoor Championships in Athletics will be held in Valencia, Spain in March, 2008 at the Luis Puig Palace. ...

Despite opposition from UK Athletics in which chief executive Niels de Vos initially banned Chambers from competing in the trials, the IAAF overruled the decision allowing Chambers to compete. He went on to win the UK trials in Sheffield and was selected to run in the World Indoor Championships the following month in Valencia. However UK Athletics released a statement that their permitting Chambers to run was done under duress, stating: UK Athletics is the governing body for the sport of athletics in the United Kingdom. ...

Competing for Great Britain at the World Indoor Championships on 7 March, Chambers recorded a new personal best time over 60m of 6.54 seconds and finished second behind Olusoji Fasuba from Nigeria and earned a silver medal. Despite the result, Chambers continued to encounter extensive criticism within athletics and refusals by promoters to invite him to key athletics events in the season ahead.^[17] Similarly he remained banned for life by the British Olympic Association and would be prevented from competing in the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. However, as of April 2008, the athlete continued to express his desire to appeal against his lifetime ban notwithstanding his trials that month with English rugby league side Castleford Tigers.^[18].
