    Aye. Let's quote The Guardian. The LOV Suite of mass journalism. Sniping left wing wankers who will find bad out of anything good

  • All I care about is finishing above Australia in the medal table.

  • I bet Bolt is kicking himself that he was not more dedicated.   He could have been the most iconic athlete in the world if he had tried

It's all Bob Geldofs fault. Back in the 80s he was asking us for money to send aid including drugs to Ethipoia.

Listen, they are not fucking mopeds right. All 4 are classic Italian scooters.

 

Fuck off yourself.

I was on about the pace setter but you crack on...

Well the first half of the race was at world record pace (from the past Chinese dopers of the 1990s), then she accelerated sharply and ran the second half of the race 15 seconds faster. I'd like to believe it, but sadly I don't.

The reality that out of competition testing is much harder to police beyond the pale of modern civilisation. UK may now stop altitude training trips to Iten in Kenya, after its dubious publicity. Then again, there are ample training facilities in France at Font Romeu and in the USA at Boulder, Colorado, so I've never seen it as necessary to go elsewhere.

Get in Max

2nd place int medal table tonight?

He's done it!

All over now

 

Get in

Just about to get a gold boating as well now

Double for Max

He's a fucking superstar this kid

Lewis Smith looks reet chuffed

There's definitely some friction between those two - I noticed it the other night in the team comp.

 

Louis looks like a sore loser.

 

Well done Max (2) and Justin!

 

Hopefully another one for Jason Kenny in the pedal faster later against Skinner, and one for Bolty's mate Andy Murray.

 

I'm lovin' these Olympics!!

Smith isn't particularly likeable IMO

 

Shitty haired wanker

 

I bet he's rude to folk in lifts too

Bit hard to have a go at Lewis Smith. Didn't look like a bad loser to me - just someone who's had his dreams shattered. Must be bitter sweet.

 

Agree there's no excuse for that haircut though!

Over a week into it and we are now 2nd in the medal table. Wouldn't imagine it will stay that way but still.... Well done lads and lasses.

 

Btw, I've been watching and listening to loads of the Olympics. Excellent coverage from all of the BBC.

Really enjoying the coverage too (they have sent 400 staff there like...) but haven't been able to stay awake past about 1

Murray on tonight as well

 

How many golds are we going to get today / tonight?

 

Be on for a 'super sunday'

Hopefully De Potro will still be knackered

Louis Smith just been on 5 live. Sounded over the moon :D

 

Said he's had loads of mental issues and shouldn't really have been in the team. Trained alone up until a few weeks ago.
