Big J R Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Silver in the Ladies Road race. Very well done Lizzie Armitage. I have to say that I enjoyed the Ladies road-race on TV today more than the mens yesterday. 'Er Indoors' says British women have far more stamina and will to win than British men, and who am I to disagree ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Yes, I thought Lizzie was going to get gold on the run in and might well have done had she sprinted slightly earlier before the Dutch rider did, it was a great effort though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big J R Posted July 31, 2012 Author Share Posted July 31, 2012 ........... so we'd better not mention Tom Daley and partner ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mayor Of Simpleton Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Tom and Pete were unlucky and gave it their best shot. I'd like to see their critics (including the moron who sent Tom an abusive 'tweet') do better. We have no divine right to win every medal, neither do the Americans or Chinese etc. If it's going to be about how 'my medal collection is bigger than yours' then there's nothing Olympic about it.

Rhodes Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 So who thinks we will finally win a gold medal today, I guess the double sculls at 11.50 is our best hope with Anna Watkins and Katherine Grainger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
