WHATS ALL THIS THEN !

OUR RESIDENT ITK and OUR BEST POSTERS LURKING BEHIND THE BACK OF THE EVERTON FORUM BIKE SHEDS

GET BACK TO THE EVERTON FORUM. I WANT TRANSFER SPECULATION AND BILL BASHING FORTHWITH !

LET THAT BE A LESSON TO ALL OF YOU..... I,VE GOT MY EYE ON THE LOT OF YOU.
 
Alright for Pendleton then, seeing as it was her fault and she's cost her the opportunity of a lifetime

Yep. They were apparently told in no uncertain terms how to the letter the rule-enforcing would be. It's just silly really.

But given the stakes, pressure and time windows you think there'd be something before out right disqualification.
 
Team GB win Gold AND Silver in the Canoe Slalom!!!

GOLD IN THE SHOOTIN

Damnit i'm obviously watching the wrong stuff, missing all the medals :(

Question: Did our canoe teams get to practice for the olympics in the custom build olympic canoe course - unlike every other team. Im only asking, please dont flip your lids (?)

I think they move all the gates etc... So it's not such a massive advantage really

Most of our canoists have been there for the last 18mths, certainly Hounslow and his partner, but obviously the gate configuration is different from round to round etc...

GB gonna be DQ'd here in the cycling I think

The second rider went too early

Alright for Pendleton then, seeing as it was her fault and she's cost her the opportunity of a lifetime

They changed leader too early, before the lead girl had crossed the finish line on the first lap. Think it is the first girls fault if anything, whats Pendleton supposed to do, put the brakes on??

They wouldn't have beaten the chinese, but was defo a possible silver, massive shame.

Why not? What was the difference in their 1st round times? They did set the WR before the Chinese broke it...
 
It's nice how our team gets disqualified and they can't actually show us video proof as to why.

They did. We ballsed up. Harsh but the right decision imo :(

then the chinese went and broke the world record again in their next run though

And? Our girls already broke the record once, and not far off the second time when they were DQ'd, why couldn't they do it again???

GB up to 5th in the medal table now :)
