Yeah, the day coverage is better. Basically no pundits.

They had 1/3rd court basketball on today which was fun.

Yeah was good that.... wish they'd do something different with football... 5 a side or something indoors maybe.

Yea, I 5 a side was mentioned here before but then that would basically be futsal.

I think I like the sound of 7 a side, all amateurs +1 ringer

BMX racing was fun to watch. Do think 33 year olds still riding BMXs are very dubious, mind.

Sports coverage in England is so annoying. The fluff and filler they put out is annoying, they are determined to make a story. Just let the events write their own...

I want to watch some track and field! Not a load of old waffle!

The BBC coverage is poor but that is because they only have rights to show a limited amount of the competitions, and they have Claire Balding, who just seems interested in stories. If you want to see most of the competitions you need the Discovery app.

Cheating using two poles.

Definitely couldn't enter the women's boxing with that.

 

[Alan Dugdales Moustache]

Anyone fighting that algerian man- lady should give it a smack below the belt and see what happens.

Brilliant Evenepoel in road race

Dressage - what's the point?

Shouldn't the horses get the medals.

If we win though, greatest event ever!

So true.

‘What’s this pile of shit ?’

‘oh we’re in the mix… come on GB, don’t let me down now’

 

[Philosoraptor]

And so it begins...

 

[Philosoraptor]

Falco - rock me amadeus... got to be worth a extra point

 

[CCFCSteve]

Fleetwood mac is a winner for me…those horses can dance !

 

[Philosoraptor]

It's one of the weridest things at the Olympics.

 

[Philosoraptor]

How can you possibly set the scores to go down to 0.001%?

That's motor racing stuff!

 

[Philosoraptor]

GBs up

The archery final

Been loving the archery. Actually tempted to give it a go.

Weren’t there olympians training at Old Leamingtonians before they got kicked out to make way for Wasps

No idea on the second point but I can agree on loving the format.

The South Koreans are lethal, I actually wanted the Yank to win earlier as he seemed like the underdog.

Watching the gymnastics - Men's vault - GB interest. One of the pundits sounds uncannily like Johnny Vegas.

Just watching the Ngamba fight. She looks quality, battered the French girl. She’s a refugee based in U.K. (passport not supplied so fights for EOR but coached by GB)

What happened? Missed it.

What happened? Missed it.

Two leading, another two pulled up level and the US woman just decided to go for it, broke away with 3km to go, others looked to see who would lead chase and all just stayed looking at each other crawling along, nobody making move. US woman won easily other three waited to sprint down the straight for photo on the line
