The cycling and the boxing have been disappointing this games. The athletics got 10 medals although only one gold. 14 gold and 63 medals is a good GB haul overall. A strange games for us.Disappointing in the women’s omnium, and the sprint semi final first leg (Funicane looked well off it). Laura Kenny’s prediction of 8 GB track cycling golds was way off I’m afraid
About 1 in 4 of us being thick as fuck. The true answer is <1%. 1 in 16 think they could make the 100m in LA or the Cycling team haha.
I wonder what sports you'd get closest in, I imagine a lot of the non-physical sports, Archery, Shooting are your best chances.

Bit of a damp squid in the Track Cycling for GB, hope Jack Carlin can pull something out of the bag.

6th at best, worst performance since 2004, top 4 in the last 4 Olympics so I think overall under achieved on golds. Enjoyed it though, some near misses, but you expect that in the OlympicsThe cycling and the boxing have been disappointing this games. The athletics got 10 medals although only one gold. 14 gold and 63 medals is a good GB haul overall. A strange games for us.

She predicted 8 Golds from the 12 events, don't ask her for a dead cert in the Derby.I was expecting more after listening to Laura Kenny. She was so sure.

I think she is completely unrealistic and gets very carried away with herself. Sir Chris Hoy is a lot more knowledgeable and rational. But of course the bbc give more airtime to the chatty unrealistic oneI was expecting more after listening to Laura Kenny. She was so sure.
