"Meanwhile by LA 2028 my confident prediction is that the ginger rapist will be dead in his cell And the American drug cheating will have been exposed so they will retreat to playing rounders for the ‘World’ series, netball and that rugby game where the fat poofs wear helmets , padding & tights"

"Faux You seem to be a pretty confident fuckwit. But I can see through your weak feeble attempt of a bluff. Nobody and I mean nobody can be that confident of a cackling Kamala victory, her past is too soiled with bad far left policies. She can barely speak, knows fuck all about fuck all which is why they are keeping her hidden in the basement. The debates will expose just how much of a clueless idiot she is. She is yet another DEI poster child so it’s no surprise to those that aren’t a fuckwit."

"So the man who identifies as a woman wins gold in boxing. What a sick joke. These poor women, spent 4 years preparing for the Olympics only to have the opportunity taken away from them by the woke Olympic committee. Such a shame!"

"I watched that Raygun woman late last night. It was what you would expect from a 36yo white woman. Must be her English DNA. . I turned it off after. Unlike skateboarding, I didn't find it surprisingly enjoyable. Just teenager shit."

"KJT did fine. She wasn't expected to get better than silver so soon after coming back from injury. The gold medal haul has been disappointing. Another poster suggested we have been unlucky, but that isn't the case, except for the clay pigeon shooter. Losing by a small margin is losing and a normal turn of events. It's not 'unlucky'. Our swimmers underperformed terribly. Our BMXers kept falling off, our sailors have done nothing and our boxers have been awful. Thus far, after a great start, our cyclists have also disappointed. Our tracik and field athletes have done kind of OK - nothing better than that. I'm not sure how many more golds are expected, but it's probably fuck all. I'll be delighted to be wrong on that. The media haven't noticed yet and are still in, 'What a great games for Team GB' mode. That will change over the coming weeks."

KJT’s consistent weaknesses have been the shot and javelin. Here she managed to be competitive with Thiam in the shot but once again the javelin disparity let her down.

Same for France due to Leon Marchand who did things even Michael Phelps couldn't do. He is going to be around for a while too as he's only 22.

"I guess that would impact her 200 and Long Jump, but she did nail her High Jump with her best Jump for 5 years and threw a PB in the shot.Thought she ran a fast 200 earlier this season and has been competing well in Individual Long Jump competitions this season Most Decathletes and Heptathletes don't generally do many full multi events outside of the major competitions. She did well just a shame she couldn't have nailed both or even one of the 200 and Long Jump. Didn't realise the mens football concluded a while ago so we are 4th in the table going in to the last day. Another remarkable achievement, we've been comfortably the best European Olympians for the last 4 Olympics, the range of events we medal in is impressive. If it wasn't for the endless swimming categories Australia wouldn't be 3rd."

KJT did brilliantly given she is still recovering from her achilles injury and this was her first full heptathlon of the season. I remember Dean Macey having to do the same as he broke himself in one way or another in every full decathlon comp.

"Thought KJT blew it last event last night in the 200 and today in the Long jump. If she had nailed those which are 2 of her best events she probably would have won. She did okay but was slightly under par giving her too much too do in the 800. 100 meter relay women too could have got gold instead of silver but for 2 bad baton handovers. We've narrowly missed out on a few Golds and had a few underperforming too. Shame as we could be even higher in the table. We have overtaken the Frogs in the table, now 4th but they will either go level or above us depending on the Mens football final result. Think we can finish above them if they don't win the football as we've still got the cycling and 400 relays tomorrow."

An extremely dodgy VAR call awards France a last minute penalty in the men's football gold medal match and they equalise. What a surprise!

Bellend DNA is not imaginary…..Europeans who move to a part of the world where they are not indigenous but they say they are from there is imaginary…. ….Aborigines are Australian the rest of them are mainly bitter about where they come from Europeans…. ….when I see Australia win anything in sport that is not won by an Aborigine I know that it effectively someone indigenous from my continent…..and somehow to me it devalues the achievement seeing as they treat the indigenous so badly…..

It makes as much sense as asserting that one's sporting loyalties should be determined by imaginary genetics.

Why would anyone divide by 4? Wouldn’t you just count them by country of origin? Or at least divide by the proportion of the population in each of the 4 countries. Odd behaviour.

There was a defender during the Redknapp era. Didn't play many. Chris something I think.
