Nothing of the sort, they've been too busy shagging poms and not swimming riding, rowing or running fast enough.

4 gold now with the one from the 49 class sailing to be confirmed sometime tonight as long as they complete the course in the final race.

Not a great performance from our lot. They'll need to be faster to beat the poms next time.

Do you win gold medals for that

TarJak · 08-08-12, 07:43 AM

Depends on how many per night.

TarJak · 08-08-12, 07:58 AM

Lets just put it down to 'late starters'

GB womens hockey were beaten 2-1 in the semi final by Argentina and no further golds today...for a change

I wondered why the BBC News website actually had news on it for a change...I figured we'd stopped getting gold medals.

Jimbuna · 08-08-12, 06:20 PM

I've no doubt we'll win a few more before the games end

Maybe it's me, but in the US, NBC's Primetime coverage should be titled "NBC Primetime Women's Beach Volleyball with Misty and Carrie". It seems that is all they've been showing.

I didn't even realize the "other" US women's team made it to the final round for a US vs US match for the gold. I don't even remember seeing the other US team play.

I guess bikinis=ratings=$$$$$.

BossMark · 08-09-12, 04:22 AM

No bloody medals yesterday

Hopes today is better

TarJak · 08-09-12, 06:43 AM

Another gold for the Aussies in K4 1000.

BossMark · 08-09-12, 10:09 AM

Gold medal number 23 well done Charlotte Dujardin in the dressage

Ireland has got its second medal, which means we are just behind then great sporting nation of the Dominican Republic in the table.
