  1. Through in the case they should do all the events like that - you could even have the jump’s combined with both going at the same time.
  2. Same as the Americans. Semenya beating Mu would have set them off.
  3. British Cycling performance director Stephen Park also confirmed they were one of "several" teams to call for the Danes to be penalised for the use of illegal equipment in Monday's qualifying session. The world champions wore plasters on their shins in a bid to improve their aerodynamics, while apparently wearing undervests which had not been properly registered in time. Park said that at a meeting of teams before Tuesday's cycling session, the UCI confirmed the equipment could not be used for the rest of the competition but indicated there would be no retroactive punishment, despite rules saying a team should face elimination in such circumstances. "There was a fairly heated debate about whether the UCI were or were not going to apply their own rules about [the tape] and about undervests," Park said.
  4. Team GB saying they not happy at Denmark not being DQ.
  5. I didn’t actually hear her say it but Eurosport apologised for swearing in the pole vault earlier.,
  6. Thank you. I was impressed with her at the European Indoors and since then I’ve had a feeling she was going to have a good games.
  7. Thank you for saying GBR are a powerhouse - we haven’t won a medal in the event since 1960.
  8. She will. It be interesting to see how Mboma reacts as they can’t use the white v black issue.
  9. The only way she will compete in Paris is if CAS overturns the inevitable ban that is coming. I can see the Jamaican media and politicians having a right go at Mboma - could be source of Caribbean v African tensions.
  10. The only way she will compete in Paris is if CAS overturns the inevitable ban that is coming.
  11. I very much doubt it will be even through it’s hilarious that it was changed for the USA and their didn’t make it.
  12. The IAAF are probably already preparing for a court battle over the 200m for the DSD athletes.
  13. He was born in Athens to a Greek father and Ugandan mother so I would have thought Greek is his native language.
  14. I think Hodkingson will be the best finisher of the British Three but I don’t think she will be quite there on the podium.
  15. Eurosport are reporting major disagreements within the British Camp with athletes not happy with the preparation and organisation.
  16. GB are having a poor Olympics in winning any one on one final in any sport. Following on from Euro 2020 perhaps.
  17. It improves the global spread of the finals. Otherwise things could descend back into the days of only three counties in a final which is not great for the sport.
  18. The Republic of cheats will certainly finish above GB on the medal table.
  19. I will be surprised if Kenny and Archibald medal in the Maddison as having just caught up with the final Archibald seemed to be the weakest GB rider.
  20. I am going to predict no Gold’s for Gb in the velodrome. I think they will be a few more silver’s and bronzes maybe in the men’s print and Kerrin and women’s omnium.
  21. Laura Kenny getting slaughtered on Twitter - Guess GB not wining gold in cycling is going to be seen as a flop. Jess Varnish will get the blame in the Daily Mail.
