Paris 2024 Olympics Thread - 11th August (pg 430)

[BringBackSwales]

The crowd in the athletics stadium are having a great time. Trouble is the BBC have put their studio in the middle of it and you can hardly hear what they are saying.

Maybe a good thing?

I think this is a rare time when the studio are good. You don’t like listening to Michael Johnson?

Hmm George Mills racing, son of Danny. Do I want him to do well cos he is GB or lose cos his dad is a ****? I guess you don’t get to choose your dad so hope he does well. Hopefully he covers 1500 metres quicker than his dad

He did well

 

[Eccles Blue]

George Mills used his nous there to manoeuvre his way through those athletes. Well done laddie. Hope your Dad was watching and taking note. :-)

That’s not saying much, though, is it?

He was breathing and that’s as you say more than his Nosferatu lookalike dad ever did for us.

 

[Eccles Blue]

Good, if short, interview with him. Acknowledging that he made mistakes yesterday. I bet his Dad never did that! ;-)

And, he’s not injured.

Hard to make mistakes when your welded to the treatment table

That’s all his dad ever did.

Oh, you mean, admit to making mistakes?

I'm watching Canada v Germany women's football.
No idea why.

 

[MCFC1993]

Such a shame.

British girls need to treat these 100m semis as finals, give yourself the chance of a medal later on.

 

[jimharri]

It would be easy to quickly tire of Sha'Carri Richardson's voice. Compare to Michael Johnson.

 

[MCFC1993]

Asher-Smith won't make the final, poor start cost her.

Asher Smith underwhelming there.

Never liked her, always come across as a bit of a bellend, looks like she'll walk this event though.

 

[MCFC1993]

Asher Smith underwhelming there.

Very underwhelming, she relies on her fast start and it was terrible there.

Having a big appendage is a burden, trust me. Constant bruises on the side of your knee.

She does come across as a bit of a tw@.

Ankles for me
