GBR won't play again.

 

Great pens from Korea.

 

You don't know that, just like you don't know that LCY would have been picked.

 

I for one enjoyed seeing England and Wales play, I certainly hope they do it again in Rio.

Sturridge missed the vital pen, but so did Ramsey in normal time and Buckland was at fault for their goal.

 

He is atr times greedy and frustrating, but he's a quality player and we'd probably have been relegated without his goals 2 seasons back.

Will you ignore it again?

Back to the heptathlon - The German (Schwartzkopf) was disqualified in the 800m. I think she would have taken silver - certainly a medal - but for that. Don't know when it will get a mention.

 

REINSTATED!!

Hope Ennis stays off the booze tonight - not going for the 100m hurdles would be throwing a medal chance away.

 

but can she just decide to enter it now?

Diddles, they don't get anything for winning an Olympic medal.

 

Once you've won one though, you'll earn all sorts of money from sponsorship etc. Some of these people have traind all their lives at massive personal expense, and if they win a medal, then fair play to them if they get to milk some sponsorship deals afterwards.

 

 

In my mind, some of these people are way, way above some of the tossers who play professional football in the Barclays Premier League.

 

They're fairly well looked after in the run-up to being a great athlete too. Companies will fall over each other to provide equipment for the top athletes. Bet Jess Ennis hasn't had to buy a pair of spiked running shoes for a while. It's while the athletes are at a much more junior level that it costs them, or rather their parents, in hard cash for equipment and time to attend meetings.

You've lost me, what exactly are you asking from me and what have I ignored?

 

You said we weren't taking advantage of being at home

 

I said wait until the nearer the end
