The Games of the XXXI Olympiad

[Pavilionaire]

The World Cup team members were brought to a meeting of athletes, coaches and sports officials where they were severely criticised for their failure to win.
The coach, like any other DPRK senior official, was sent away to do construction for a few months before returning to a lower level position in the DPRK Football Association.

I've now got images of Woy in a hardhat.

Annoyingly the 100m mens final is 2.25am Monday morning, will get up for 9.5 seconds to watch it

Excellent rugby match between GB and the Kiwis. We were 21-0 up at half time and hung on to win 21-19

The rugby sevens have been a big hit -some really good games. My highlight of the Olympics so far

Froome gets bronze in the men's TT.

The field was convincingly stuffed by Cancellara who won his second Gold following 8 years after Bejing.


4 years ago Cancellara fell on the final bend of the men's road race, damaging his shoulder.
Bradley Wiggins was truly blessed that Summer.

Mine too, thus far.

Wiggins was nailed on for that TT. Really don't think Cancellara would have challenged for gold in 2012.

Still an absolute stonking ride today!

That's a big call which you may well be right about.
But we can safely say BW's win was that much 'easier' against an injured Cancellara.

When you look at stage 10 of the 2012 TdF Wiggins put 40 odd seconds over 40 odd kms, into Cancellara. By the end of the TdF Wiggins form, particularly TT form, had improved compared to his rivals (look at the final TT results); although admittedly Cancellara wasn't in the race by that point. Added to his form a home London race giving him extra motivation, I would say, particularly with hindsight it was nailed on!

England Ladies Hockey team leading 3-2 after three quarters of the game....but looking like they are going to throw it as the Argies are well pumped up.

Argies save an England penalty... looking shaky

Chalk up a bronze from the Trap, but which Brit will it be. Hopefully the one from Battle, Sussex

BBC are so poor at sport, why not just dedicate BBC2 to the Olympics and then half way through a match they go from 4 to 1 as its going to be a British medal - leave it where it is especially as its started

Steven Scott wins a bronze medal in the trap shooting, beating fellow Brit Tim Kneale.
