TeamGB online shop has started discounting some of the official Paris 2024 kit. Just got one of these (altho sadly not at a discount)

Pints too. He's good at pints as well.

If people were rioting because they didn't get a charger with their new iphone, then that is entirely understandable tbh. (I'll admit, I was slightly miffed myself but in the end I just bought one and claimed it back on expenses).

Yes, I loved the ‘84 Olympics for all the reasons you state. I really loved the Barcelona games too, the outdoor diving especially. But they rarely get a mention as an iconic Games these days. What really excites me is knowing that there will be people getting up to go training tomorrow, people...

The next Olympics will be great. Yes, it’ll be very American but that’s ok. Bring it on.

‘sake. France have gone weird again.

:lolol: The sheer arrogance is breathtaking

As was entirely predictable, this thread is now exactly the same as the other Riots thread, with the same handful of dullards making the same points over and over again, but now on two threads instead of one. If I could be arsed, I’d merge them. But I can’t, so I won’t. Back to the Olympics...

Granted, it’s a long way off, but if anyone wants to watch those Track and Field athletes live then the Diamond League will be at the London Stadium on July 19 next year. It’s a great 1-day event and we have fantastic British talent to support, particularly on the track.

Well, yes, all of that! My daughter is 14 and competes at 800m and 1500m at Regional level (in her case, that’s racing against the best girls from athletics clubs across 5 counties plus north London). She trains on the track with her Athletics club two nights a week plus she does another two...

Agree with all of that. After those fuckers bombed the train lines on Day 1 and an err, different Opening Ceremony, I’ll admit - I feared the worst. But, it’s been a brilliant Games and this thread has really heightened my knowledge and appreciation of some sports I know very little about...

I like Ian Hislop. He seems very comfortable in his own skin with a gently self-deprecating nature and always prepared to be the butt of the joke. But ruthless when the occasion requires.

This. All day long. He’s like Nicky Campbell but with Added Nicky Campbell.

In just the last few days on here, someone posted about executions for treason, a current elected Member of Parliament and having a length of rope lying around. To save that person the potential inconvenience of a 6am knock at the door and 3 years on B Wing for inciting the lynching of elected...

I can’t decide if the inclusion of a snood is an unfortunate choice of gift in current circumstances - or bang on trend for streetwear this August.

The convictions handed down over the last few days have been in Crown Court. Listening to the sentencing, the 20-30 month sentences are in line with a guilty plea for Violent Disorder as there is an automatic 1/3 reduction in the term for a guilty plea. EDIT Just read your post again and I...

Yes. Disappointed tbh. I thought it was going to be who could dismantle a 1996MY Ford Mondeo LX the quickest. I had high hopes for TeamGB.

With all the superfluous hi-tech nonsense surrounding sport these days, it’s amazing and refreshing how everyone has got on board with something as simple as letting the winner ring a bell. Love it

Strong finish from Amber
