If I was Putin I'd want my money back. He's got all the judges in his pocket and Rossiya are still only fourth.
We're now level with China on total medals. And that's not including the 3 medals to still be made official. Our most successful away games with 5 days to go. What the **** is going on?
Over in the diving, Laugher in prime position to nail a silver too! I love how good we are at the olympics!!!
Jack Laugher is going to get a medal. He is only 15 points off gold in the 3 meter spring board diving with 1 dive to go.
Kenny's medal already confirms it as our most successful away games. With 5 days to go too. It also put us level with China in total medals, and that isn't including the medals to be confirmed in the coming days.
Its the desire to win plus we dont have **** loads of drug cheating twats like when we had East Germany, CCCP etc
money makes a massive difference, and a hat tip deserved for John Major as it was under his PMship that the call was made to direct lottery funds to sport, were it not for that we'd perhaps be slumming it like Atlanta again, which was ****
we're ahead of the bloody London tally at the moment! It'd be beyond all expectations to beat that but we've got a chance, there are still medals in this!
ha, as excited as Balding just got, defo the most successful British couple, but Phelps and his missus are still miles ahead globally!
The eventual total in London was 29 golds and 65 total medals - I don't think we'll beat it personally, but we don't need to. This is our greatest away games, that is all it needed to be. As long as it was better than Beijing, it would be fantastic, and we've smashed that.
