Furthermore it's the British grass court season, and they tend to go full on with that (even going as far to get broadcasters from other sports and freelancers who mainly work for other broadcasters).

Only the Men's. It's cuz Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland feel FIFA will make them merge with England to form a Great Britain team due to them not putting in good performances compared to England. Although since Tokyo, Wales have qualified for a Euros and a World Cup and Scotland look set to qualify for Euro 24 so they might be swayed to agreeing to team up.

I agree on Modern Pentathlon, both quotas should be easy to get. Same goes for Women's Seven's, although Spain will put up quite the challenge. I think Ireland pip the men to the quota, however this won't be too bad as we should get it via the world qualifier. Llewellin and Coward-Holley will get their well deserved quotas, with Gowin and Heading also being in with a good shot (no pun intended). Don't know too much about the boxing either but expect us to sweep up most, if not all, of the quotas with a mix of returning athletes from Tokyo and previous qualification cycles and some high quality newcomers. Don't expect much from the divers as it's quite an inexperienced team, probably only get 2 quotas here. Artistic swimming will give it a go, but will ultimately fall short to the likes of Italy and Ukraine. Despite matching your concerns, I do think the women will pull it together and get the quota. The same won't be said for the men and our b-boy in Breaking (can't remember if it's Brummit or Sunny).

Nothing's set in stone, but in a lot of Olympic sports they use rankings to reallocate quotas so I wouldn't be surprised if they did this here. Also, it isn't entirely an U21's tournament as you're allowed to use 3 players over that age - so this would sort of justify using the main rankings.

If we both got to the Semi's then I believe the spot will still provisionally go to us as I don't think it's been 100% confirmed that there won't be an agreement before next year. If we haven't reached an agreement come next year then I assume it'll go to the highest ranked EU nation from the FIFA rankings yet to qualify.

Stupid if true, although a few weeks back I saw we'd accepted a Universality quota for Karate so unsure what to believe.

That'll massively hurt her, she'll have to win a couple events to catch up (hopefully the Europeans around her perform poorly).

Yeah, for some reason Team GB only released the entries for Olympic events. So events like Kickboxing, which we qualified 8 athletes in, weren't included.

And entry list, still don't know the GB team for MuayThai, Padel, Ski Jumping and Tequball (if we have any).

You should be fine against us, all you need to do is have one really good quarter and you've won the game.

It's a real shame cuz I fancied us to get to the Olympics after last cycle's near miss, our Women's team never fails to disappoint. Not a fan of the Women's qualification system though, having no direct continental qualifier is utterly ridiculous.

Damn, that 1 point loss to Germany seems to have really fucked us up. I'm no expert on Women's basketball but I assume we're expected to get thrashed by Serbia?

If Turkey beat Slovakia and end up with a better points difference then Hungary, how come they still finish 3rd and Hungary 1st?

Well, that's no OQT for us then. No way are we beating Serbia.

The team are pathetic, losing 18-6 in the 3rd quarter is completely unacceptable. We've now gone from having and for a place in the OQT to having having and .

Played better than I thought, Turetta turned up and Dante is an absolute character. Will be a tougher test against Sweden though, who many expect to get through.

I'm not sure you know, Turetta is in the best form of his life and doubles can be very unpredictable. But it'll all depend on Bellmont as Walpen is still quite inexperienced. Also that mustache on Dante is incredible.

I've been unsure on them for a while, but if we can play like we did in the final 2 games of the qualifiers we should be able to reach the quarters.

We shouldn't but Keir Starmer is so shit I wouldn't be surprised if we did. If someone like the mayor of Manchester Andy Burnham was leader then I wouldn't be so worried. Also, people in our country have short term memory so if Rishi has a good 2 months before the election then he'll be lorded as a God.

BBC's 1,2 and 3 aren't showing anything from the games for the first 2 days, with BBC 2 opting to show Queen's instead. However, BBC 4's schedule is unknown for the 22nd, so there's a chance it could be shown on there as well as the website.

It shows up on mine as that, and has the finals on the following 2 days. However it only has the BMX showing, maybe they're only showing sports that correspond to each countries successes and interests.

If there is a tie for one of the 5 spots, is there a tiebreaker or will both the ones that are tied be chosen?

The only thing that's been hyped up by any major media outlet including Olympic website is the announcement of team.

Only recognise Kalush, who in my opinion have one of the worst Eurovision winning songs.
