The triathlete fella whose bike broke so he ran round the course with it on his shoulders.

 

Paraphrase: 'It's the Olympic games, may never have another one, only comes once every four years so fk it, I'm finishing no matter what'

well at least her husband didn't batter her like he did that time after she failed to win another race some time ago.

 

But, you should always aim to finish a race even if you're not going to win it. Thats bad sportsmanship to through a wobbly because you're not going to come first. You can't win everytime!

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

How do you know he didn't batter her?

 

After all, she's kept a very low profile since her bottlings.

 

 

[Claire!]

He may well have done. But he didn't batter her in public this time. It's bad enough being battered by a [****!!****] in private, let alone by a [****!!****] in public. That is even more humiliating for any woman.

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Am I missing something - when exactly did he batter her in public?

 

Or are you just referring to that heated discussion they had by the side of the track a few years back. Hardly a battering.

 

 

[Claire!]

Aparently he hit her. No excuse for hitting, even if it was a heated argument or not.

[color:"blue"] Does he run a fish & chip shop, then ?

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

"Apparently"? So this is not necessarily 'fact', then??

 

What about hitting kids? Got to be the way forward, discipline and all that, eh??

 

 

[CANV EFM]

she actually pushed him.. he was merely slating her for fking up the race tactics..

[gertcha EFM]

The fact he is her husband is irrelevant. She has chosen him to be her coach, and in that capacity he had a go at her for running a poor race, in the same way as any decent coach would.

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

I think you exaggerated possibly just a touch Claire, with your use of the word "battered".

 

 

[Claire!]

Aparently she was. That is what i heard anyway.

 

Regardless, he should never have had a go at her in public anyway. Very unprofesional at any standard.

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Absolute rubbish. I've never heard such crap.

 

That's what coaches are there for. Do you believe then, that football managers should not shout at their players on the pitch, for example?

 

Unprofessional, my [****!!****].

 

 

[Claire!]

He didn't need to do it at the side line. My opinion, disagree with it, but i do think it is unprofessional. And i believe that football managers having a go at their players is totally different. Again, my opinion, disagree with it if you want - and as i expect you will. Your opinion also counts, but i have my own opinion.

[YB941 5thD EFM ~soul~]

Explain how the football scenario different, then.
