GB not looking as strong in the swimming as the Europeans teased they would be. Not sure they will get that close to the 6 medals of last time.  Again another sport that will find keeping funding hard with pressure to spend more of the money on public swimming rather than elite.

Horrible defeat for Sinden.cLet’s hope tomorrow we win a gold or two.

 

I still think the target of 45 medals is not going to be anyway near being achieved and it’s more about trying to beat the 28 and 30 of Sydney and Athens (and trying maybe to beat the 11 and 9 golds of those games. Uk Sport should be honest with the public if they want any hope of not finding a sudden funding cut being announced this autumn.

When is it time to start worrying? Is it now?

If by next Sunday the medal total is Atlanta with little chance of making Athens or Sydney. 
 

Eurosport’s commentators were pretty disappointed at the failure to make the relay final. Feels like for the others finals the best will have to be used in the heats or face serious questions about strategy.
