[Mick-Talbot]

0.001

[Mick-Talbot]

not again ......

[bibblebub]

poor decision, the aussie elbowed her first

[mazie]

She did bibble and it was very obvious..

[zebo]

Been reversed, apparently when the Aussie elbowed her, she left her lane. So if the Aussie repeats the foul she'll win, hope there;d be very loud booing

[emmie]

the commentator on medal ceremony for Laura Trott, introducing Artur Lopes, as lopes as in running, would have thought that was Like Lopez? funny which ever...

[bibblebub]

darn

[emmie]

Silver medal, she will be gutted..

[Mick-Talbot]

I feel a tad guilty ..... Anna Meares was a generous evens on betfair to win despite being 1 up , I

[Mick-Talbot]

I'm afraid I thought that was too good to miss and bet on her .......



I should be tasered :0/

[zebo]

So we are now cycling to Aussie football rules, Pendleton was well and truly robbed there. There seems to be a concerted effort to rewrite the rules to disadvantage the GB riders, new rules were introduced after Beijing, now it seems that cheating has paid off.

[bibblebub]

bend over, MT, the taser's ready

[emmie]

zebo, after watching the rerun of the first sprint, would say you are correct. The Aussie knocked into her, causing her to go out the sprint lane, apparently Paul Brailsford is having sharp words with the judges. But she didn't win the second sprint, tactics were wrong.

[zebo]

em10, true, she raced the second leg badly, to what extent the farce affected her we can't know, but it should then hav been level. She may then have lost the third and no-one would have minded, but to know that you've been cheated out of it is quite another matter.

[bibblebub]

can Sir Chris lift the spirits? or is that a silly question?

[emmie]

true ^^

[emmie]

that was for zebo..

[vodkancoke]

I'm so sad for Victoria :(

Hopefully Sir Chris can do it :)
