Referee should probably just call the Bronze Medal match at this point before it gets ugly.

Laura is a natural in front of the camera and explains the tactics very well , she is a keeper

What’s her distribution like? Can she play out from the back ?
All time Olympic great.

Turnbull you beauty

 

[SebastianBlue]

Alas, Spain eliminated in that sprint lap.

[SebastianBlue]

We might actually win this!

Officials acting very erratically for this race.

GB wins elimination race 3 of 4.

Very strange officiating throughout, though, it has to be said.

 

[Protein Junkie]

Utterly absorbing the elimination race -brilliant by Ethan Hayter.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

I love those elimination races, but it does seem like bollocks a lot of the time. French guy gets called out, then reinstated, but is so far behind that he immediately gets eliminated again.

Strange that Hayter is wearing a different colour helmet to the rest of the GB team.

 

[give it to gordon]

I hope GB didn't pay adidas for those tracksuits

Might be just for that race to give the judges more clarity between riders

 

[Tuearts right boot]

Ladies and gentlemen, if you can, please stand for the national anthem of gt Britain...ffs

Who was the swimmer who refused to wear the red GB cap because he was a City fan?

Fair point.

 

[GornikDaze]

Fair point.

Not necessarily correct though :)

Not sure what your issue is with that. It's said at every medal ceremony.

What's that got to do with the price of fish?
