    Took them long enough to get it right. The bbc website said he was a bin dipper and Lineker said he was a scot, or one of those places.

    It's a shame that he has been scheduled for his gold dual on the same night that Tom Daley was diving, and the Jamaican relay team ran.

    Although it deserves to be, his coverage is not proportionate to theirs.

    I also found it cringeworthy, and I'm the kind of posh Beverley boy who's supposed to find comments like that amusing.

    PS. I can't believe The Man let you have kids.

    Daley steals the headlines all the time because he is a bit of middleclass mummy porn -im not slighting Daley or his achievements its just the syrupy way the BBC do it.

    I agree. Fair enough, the kid's 18, performed brilliantly (may even have got the gold at another Olympics) and he's done well to overcome his dad's death to win a medal, but does he really deserve to take the headlines over Campbell? I wouldn't say so.

    Fair enough when it comes to Mo Farah, who also took gold and has now won both the 5k and 10k, but not Daley...

    Have to agree with the comments about Daley deserving his medal but the overhyped and prioritised coverage of it embodies everything bad about southern media celebrity based bull**** culture, am glad most of the online papers such as the Guardian are ranking Campbell above Daley now in the coverage.

    The deal with Daley was that the media have followed him for 4 years now - he'll be someone they follow until he retires

    Boxing has always been a minor Olympic sport on TV - even when some of the later greats won it was hardly highlighted.

    I am right made up for Luke...Majestic performance. Never really looked in trouble. But why does a standing count only receive one point. Don't undertstand that. Nevertheless the judges got it right. The whole of the city will be proud tonight. Brilliant.
