yoshi Posted July 23, 2024 Report Posted July 23, 2024 I thought this thread would've already been started, I'd have started earlier if I'd known - anyway not the best piece of breaking news to kick us off... this sounds even worse than punching a horse live on television. As Brian Cox once said, things can only get better... GB's Dujardin given provisional ban and out of Games - https://www.bbc.com/sport/equestrian/articles/cd16ll5z086o 1 Quote
Sir Rols Posted July 23, 2024 Report Posted July 23, 2024 About time! King Charles will be relieved now. I guess the Germans will be relieved it’s not them punching horses this time. Quote
Rob2012 Posted July 24, 2024 Report Posted July 24, 2024 (edited) On the upside, we now have a horse called Jagerbomb in our team, which is probably the most British thing I've ever read Edited July 24, 2024 by Rob2012 Quote
FYI Posted July 24, 2024 Report Posted July 24, 2024 That's just disgraceful (to say the least). 1 Quote

Aussie bum Posted July 27, 2024 Report Posted July 27, 2024 Great to be out of the blocks so early Quote
yoshi Posted July 27, 2024 Author Report Posted July 27, 2024 Ooh, feels unusually early for a first medal. Not complaining Quote
Rob2012 Posted July 27, 2024 Report Posted July 27, 2024 Ah, Josh Tarling should've had a medal in the cycling in the men's time trial but for a puncture. 2 secs off the podium an immense effort considering. Quote
Rob2012 Posted July 28, 2024 Report Posted July 28, 2024 Peaty soooo close, we await Gold no 1 still. Quote
krow Posted July 28, 2024 Report Posted July 28, 2024 princess anne absolutely requested that medal presentation and had to listen to the italian anthem instead. Quote
yoshi Posted July 28, 2024 Author Report Posted July 28, 2024 Andy Murray, still doing Andy Murray things. The man is incredible. BBC One schedulers will be delighted when he's out Quote
Rob2012 Posted July 29, 2024 Report Posted July 29, 2024 China a long way ahead, but an excellent silver for Daley and Williams Quote
yoshi Posted July 29, 2024 Author Report Posted July 29, 2024 We won a gold! We* actually won a gold! *Our horses won a gold, who needed Dujardin anyway? 1 Quote
Rob2012 Posted July 29, 2024 Report Posted July 29, 2024 (edited) Gutsy comeback and overtake Edited July 29, 2024 by Rob2012 Quote
Aussie bum Posted July 29, 2024 Report Posted July 29, 2024 I just watched the Mountain Biking. OMG, he came back from a puncture, it was incredible. Pity the French crowd booed him as he beat a Frenchman but a well deserved gold! There was some Pidcock chanting so that was nice. Quote
yoshi Posted July 29, 2024 Author Report Posted July 29, 2024 Canoe slalom was fun - looked like we were on for number three until the French guy turned up & showed everyone how to do it Commentator also mentioned in passing a "new event of canoe cross". Please tell me that's what it sounds like... Quote
