    That's fine, at least you can admit it, but a lot of people do have the mentality I just said.

    I agree 100%. Every foreigner is suspect, all the Brits are the epitome of fair play. Linford was a hero and not dodgy at all oh no, Diane Modahl was falsely accused and bravely fought her innocence etc etc.

    Been watching the geezers on the road-race...Geez, by the way they were diving into the fence on that bend I am surprised anyone finished...

    Neil Hudgell missed a trick there. He could have had his 'had an accident' no-win, no-fee free phone number plastered on the road.

    Pity Geraint Thomas looked on for at least a medal before crashing out on the final decent, and ended up in hospital, but not before he finished the race in 11th place with Froome 12th. Greg van Avermaet won the gold.

    Been loads of cheats over the years including a fair few Brits, doesn't stop me enjoying the spectacle. Britains greatest sprinter always seemed a bit suspect to me the way he suddenly improved at a late age

    A supreme athlete in what has to be the hardest event, and a real character.

    Can you imagine the modern outcry to this?

    Who was the t shirt referring to? I remember the outcry when he whistled to the national anthem from the podium.

    That swimmer was fast as **** yesterday, Peaty or something.

    Nonchalant little nod with extended lower lip as he realises he's broken the WR. Good work.

    Must be on summut...
