    Indeed. Lukes margin of victory 20-11 was also better than the Irish lads. Whatever happens though Lukes done great.

    BBC just done an after match interview with Amir Khan and he thinks that Luke is the better fighter and will win. Hope so Amir.

    Ogogo gets outclassed by Falcao, the Brazilian in his semi final bout. Came back into it but was put down twice and was probably lucky the match was not stopped. Still it's a Bronze medal for GB.

    Reade wins 1st semi final of women's BMX.

    Reade finished 6th in the bmx , shame as she was the best rider in 2008 and a good bet for gold this time around -
    the young US lass Alsie Post screwed up in the 2nd semis heat and never recovered the points needed to make the final .

    Muhammed the controversial pick for mens taekwondo lost his bout today -Aaron Cook wont be impressed i dont imagine

    Strange, I used to get more Rodney comparisons when I was younger, though that was more of a physical thing than anything else (I was 6'3" and weighed about 10st7lb, I'm now 3 stone heavier and still one of the thinnest people I know)

    Below is the final medal count for the 1996 Olympics where we achieved 1 gold.
    Interesting that our current haul of 26 Golds is more than the combined golds of Russia and Germany (25) who came 2nd and 3rd that year.

    It's got to be said. Choosing a Sports Personality of the year just got far easier.
