    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.

    Thank you for saying GBR are a powerhouse - we haven’t won a medal in the event since 1960.

    She will. It be interesting to see how Mboma reacts as they can’t use the white v black issue.

    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.

    It will be now.

    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.

    The IAAF are probably already preparing for a court battle over the 200m for the DSD athletes.

    He was born in Athens to a Greek father and Ugandan mother so I would have thought Greek is his native language.

    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.

    Eurosport are reporting major disagreements within the British Camp with athletes not happy with the preparation and organisation.

    GB are having a poor Olympics in winning any one on one final in any sport. Following on from Euro 2020 perhaps.
  13. Orangehair43
    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.
  14. Orangehair43
    It might be a long while till one is back on the podium.
  15. Orangehair43
    The Republic of cheats will certainly finish above GB on the medal table.

    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.
  17. Orangehair43
    Did someone counter appeal then?

    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.
  19. Orangehair43
    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.
  20. Orangehair43
    Until Frazier’s score came in the BBC were saying all the time from the finish of his routine it would be at least close to a medal.
  21. Orangehair43
    The British press will spin that inexplicably as the UCI hating GB lol - it’s easy to moan even when GB would have been humiliated in the final.
  22. Orangehair43
    With Cycling getting silvers for GB will get them a lot more criticism than getting silvers in other sports. The BBC have tried to reduce expectations but it hasn’t really worked going by social media. Cycling is also part of the culture war - both in terms of the British Cycling set up and also the general culture of cycling.
  23. Orangehair43
    GB have put in a request for Denmark to be DQ (according to the website - I have the gymnastics on the tv)
  24. Orangehair43
    The BBC commentator has this Olympics started to start accusing the judges of being biased towards the Chinese.
  25. Orangehair43
    IAAF won’t care - records help build interest in a sport wrecked by retirement and doping and as everyone is doing it nobody at home notices,
