Some interesting predictions; some predicting a bit of a disappointing day and others one of the best British Olympic days of all time

I always feel that this is a sport we should be better at as there are plenty of lakes and watersports centres where you can paddle. Have they ever tried letting underperforming sports be run by those with better programmes ? Surely rowing could help them out?

We actually had a streak of golds, but never a proper team, only several individuals.

 

Big gold chance in the rowing now - men’s pair
