    Brilliant from Pidcock. The French rider tried taking him out.

    ****in hell. The diver gets all emotional during an interview and says he can't talk about his former coach that passed away.

    Next question the interviewer pushes it and asks what his dead coach would be thinking. Twat. They never listen and react to answers anymore. Just have a list of questions and work down them, even if it's already been answered.

    40 odd seconds for a wheel change, slow feckers, McClaren can change all four wheels on their cars in 1.8 seconds. :emoticon-0125-mmm:

    Pidcock was incredible earlier. Thoroughly deserved his win.

    Canoe Slalom was excellent too, some amazing strength on show

    Really looking forward to the swimming finals tonight.

    Piddock got a puncture...Tarling during Saturday's time trial got a puncture...If not he'd have got a medal...I haven't seen a French geezer have a puncture....
    You know where this is heading.

    All the frog fans booing him as he crossed the line just shows what an absolute bunch of ****ers the French really are.

    Some of these boxing decisions are utter bollocks.

    Though day for refs, few mins ago, last point of fencing men final repeated 3 times.

    Earlier, France put a lot of pressure on refs of mountain bike, you know why.

    And again on archery, one of the arrows of Turkey counted as 9 points, although it was 10 to be fair and by that decision Turkey lost against France in semi final, that one point made the difference while game was 4-2 Turkey leading.

    Got to say the lad from Wolverhampton took the decision well....I'd have been a tad nonplussed. Even think the BBC commentators thought he'd just edged it.

    In 2012, other countries' media outlets and some trainers accused/hinted that judges were swayed towards home athletes. Probably similar going on here. But the final decision on the British super heavyweight against the Armenian, was extremely strange.

    Gold medal for GB, Nathan Hales, men’s traps shooting. Hard to watch because you can’t see what they’re shooting at.

    Some of the 'female' boxers fit that description too.
