The coverage of the cycling time trial was like an advert for Parisian architecture, barely saw the riders until they rode onto the bridge for the finish, but plenty of footage of old buildings.It's really pissing me off. It keeps switching between sports rather than follow a whole session. I want to watch the whole swimming sessions live, not just dropping in for a Brit then switching to someone windsurfing. They don't have the rights clearly, so it's all over the place which is disappointing.
The BBC coverage is woeful.
Why are there only two feeds online? you can watch Rowing or Judo, but then swimming is now on and i'm sure multiple other sports taking place.
Why can they not have more streaming options online?
(I am now using Eurosport to watch swimming)
damn...sorry I missed it now....The coverage of the cycling time trial was like an advert for Parisian architecture, barely saw the riders until they rode onto the bridge for the finish, but plenty of footage of old buildings.
Yep, I just had to sit through the swimming team drawing each other. It's like something you'd see on the City Youtube channel.My current pet hate is the star build up to a particular event - take Peaty as an example (not his fault btw). They do a piece on the back story which I’m sure most know anyway. Just show the live sport and then dissect it when it’s all done ffs!
Random shit happens all the time ;)Hmm, Qin, the world record holder for men's 200m breaststroke was controversially cleared of 'accidental' doping (along with loads of other Chinese swimmers) and was bemoaning the fact that Chinese swimmers were being tested much more than any other big team this year in the run up to the Olympics. He just finished 6th in his heat. Not that I'm suggesting there are any links between these facts.

Got none in Tokyo so hopefully we do

Here's the start until 33mins:Tried watching the men's mountain bike when I got home last night.
Went on I player and thought I had found it. It showed after the first 3 laps than stopped saying courage is now on BBC 2. I tried to find the rest of the race but could only find the highlights, what a dogs dinner that I player is.
What is the point of only showing half the race ?
Fucks sake not even on on bbc, fucking wank BMXWhat a comeback in the hockey!
0-2 down back to 2-2 with less than two minutes left.
And tennis where I’ve just heard the commentator say Draper is nearly spent - it’s part way through a 3 set match ffs, unfit ****Fucks sake not even on on bbc, fucking wank BMX
Should be a gold in the men’s bmx for Kieran Reilly tbfFucks sake not even on on bbc, fucking wank BMX
Not sure a sport is good just cos we win a gold in itShould be a gold in the men’s bmx for Kieran Reilly tbf
That’s very true - dressage being a great example for me, pre whipgateNot sure a sport is good just cos we win a gold in it
I think we just don’t understand dressage. It’s probably insanely hard to train horses to do that. It’s like the floor in gymnastics, but the horse is doing the moves.That’s very true - dressage being a great example for me, pre whipgate
