  1. Archey, Badminton and Judo all at risk of being effectively cut off from funding and any focus I would imagine. Hockey will face a big cut (Talk of £5million) and might have to focus on one gender only. Sailing will face a big cut as well. Swimming is a big problem for the next decade. Won’t take much to get a Sydney no medal result.
  2. The press are having a go - all the back page headlines are about GB missing out again on gold.
  3. Half the target is medals but the other half is top 5 so some golds are expected.
  4. Certainly going to putting UK sport under a lot of pressure if they don’t get top 5 even if we reach 60 medals which is still quite possible.
  5. Seems like there is a move tonight on social media to get non Olympic British sport Stars to start talking about how good the games have been for Team GB
  6. UK sport set a target of top 5. If that is not reached they will surely be consequences or there is no point having a target.
  7. Come 2028 the target is going to be based on golds for sure. Silver and bronzes are seen as faluires now.
  8. For the first time since Atlanta we going to have a games seen as a failure,
  9. Is there a reason why Steve Cram on the BBC seemed to completely ignore Tade Ojora and barely mentioned him unlike every other race featuring a British athlete no matter how unlikely any progress would be,

  11. A rare Team GB comeback recently. Hopefully the start of a trend.
  12. It is the media though who UK Sport would have to justify themselves to if they don’t meet one half of the target.
  13. Honestly amazed Keely managed to win and also benefit from some pre games luck as well.
  14. I feel it might be giving money to the unproductive sports like Archey, Judo and Hockey that get the blame in part. There is target to make top 5. That’s not a certainty at this time.
  15. It will surely have some repercussions despite the fact we will surely beat Bejing medal tally and quite possibly won’t be that many behind Rio and Tokyo.
  16. And against Australia. Feels like the battle is between us, South Korea, Japan and the Netherlands for 5th and meeting half of UK Sports target.
  17. It’s been a disaster of a regatta for GB sailing with eveything that can go wrong happening. Massive shame after 20 years of excellent results.
  18. Ollie Wood and Ethan Hayter are doing the Maddison is that as expected.
  19. Are we going to get any luck at the moment. Another medal lost due to bad luck, And another gold for Australia who are tightening their grip alongside France in third/fouth. Feels like we will be 5th.
  20. They mentioned a test event last year. Did that have the same issues?
  21. Katie Archibald’s injury has really cost us very dearly.
  22. If he was tested after taking Cocaine it would be.
