Im hoping for Max as its his swansong too (although not sure if he will do any comps post Olympics). But yes it could well be Andy again! Out of those 2 i think, or maybe Carl Hester - at this point ive lost count of what Olympics it is for him!

Expand  

7 for Hester, equalling Skelton, and Hestor might not be a bad shout - Dressage's sudden rise needs recognised and Hester is the wellspring of the whole thing, plus he's one of the few openly LGB male Olympians from GB and it's his 7th go

 

My 'fear' is Tom Daley because...and i'm not proud of this...I can't abide him. Pure nails on a blackboard stuff.

Wonder what's gonna happen in 2028 when Eurosport turns into TNT, will everyone then have to pay TNT prices to gain access to every sport?

As I understand it Eurosport and TNT are being kept separate.

if its like last time then BBC is almost obsolete in terms of games viewing now. As i understand it, they are only allowed to show any two sports at one time. one on bbc1 and second on bbc3/red button. 

discovery+ you will be able to watch EVERY session of EVERY sport whenever it is on, like you used to do with bbc for 2012 and 2016 games. 

The cube/presenters on discovery+ are usually much better than BBC, i will probably only watch BBC for Athletics and Swimming, everything else ESPECIALLY cycling (carlton kirby ) i will have on eurosport/discovery, it is honestly worth the sub, and then just cancel it

THe basic discovery+/Eurosport sub that includes the Games is not expensive - its on offer at the minute for about 4£ a month. The TNT premium sub is about 30£ pm and, imho, wildly overpriced.

I will be surprised if many of these are successful. There is not the money. Birmingham European Athletics 2026 still could be  cancelled for example.

Will you just quit with this stupid crap?
