Our British Women's competitor just beat the world champion, and is now through to the final :love:

Really? :amazed: Like she's gonna get a Gold or Silver?!

[Black Dagger]

OMG, it was so tense, when it ended and she was crying and mouthing 'I love you mum' <3.

[Munchkins]

Really? :amazed: Like she's gonna get a Gold or Silver?!

Yes!, she did amazing :love:

[Black Dagger]

Really? :amazed: Like she's gonna get a Gold or Silver?!

Yeah, I think she has a guaranteed silver at least, and she's good, so it could still be a gold.

3 potential medal hopes in the next hour, Pete in the shooting should get us at least a silver.

[Marc]

Well!

What the heck am I doing watching the tennis then?!

:amazed:

[Munchkins]

Well!

What the heck am I doing watching the tennis then?!

:amazed:

I think its on tomorrow, since shes played 2 matches today??

[Black Dagger]

Well!

What the heck am I doing watching the tennis then?!

:amazed:

I don't know, get BBC1 on now... cheer on Pete, he's close to getting us a gold here :amazed:

[Marc]

OMG OMG k

[Munchkins]

The final is on now

[Black Dagger]

Watching it.

I'm so nervous lmao.

[Marc]

C'mon Gemma!

[Munchkins]

This american woman is really scary
would hate too meet her in a dark alley

[Marc]

FGS I hate watching Judo, it's so boring and it's even worse when somebody is beating our girl :(

[Jordan.]

Bloody USA

[Munchkins]

I reallly don't like this sport it confuses me

[Maia]

Good old Judo

[Jordan.]

Nearly snapped her neck at the end there :nono:

[Marc]

Oh well! A medal is a medal! Great silver for Gemma :)

[Black Dagger]

Silver <3.

Still a great accolade.

NOW TO CYCLING.

[Marc]

Fair play fair play. Nice sportsmanship

[Maia]

A silver that will do nicely

[Shaun]

Gemma :worship:

[Jords]

Nearly snapped her neck at the end there :nono:

:laugh2:

[Jords]

Kayla was all over Gemma in the final, great job with silver!

[Jack_]

Never watched this before but got into it as they were showing Gemma's progress on the BBC1 coverage this afternoon, so I followed her group match, quarter-final, semi-final and then final. When she did that move (whatever's it called, the one that got her like 100 points) in the semi-final and she said 'I love you mum' I literally jumped up and cheered as seemingly a lot of the country and arena did...great moment.

Seems a lovely girl as well.

[Shaun]

Ippon I think is the 100 pointer, wazari is 10 and yuko is 1.

[lostalex]

Kayla is awesome, a true inspiration!! Congrats Kayla!

[Novo]

Another woman is in the Semi final for us :worship:

[Black Dagger]

:amazed:

Do you know when she's competing Novo? Might have to check her out, I was really into it when Gemma was on, the cheer I made when she made the final.

[Novo]

Not sure they don't have the time on the schedule thing :bored:

[Black Dagger]

Not sure they don't have the time on the schedule thing :bored:

How dare they. :bored:

[Black Dagger]

Oooh. 14:15 apparently.

[Novo]

Look at the size of that Jap she's fighting, **** sake it's over before it's even began

[Black Dagger]

Oh boo =(.

Another silver would have been nice.

Could be a bronze though.

[Black Dagger]

BRONZE <3.

It's quite good really, I don't think we were expecting medals in Judo?

[Marc]

BRONZE <3.

It's quite good really, I don't think we were expecting medals in Judo?

No! :amazed:

[Black Dagger]

No! :amazed:

I think that is what makes it so much more special.

I mean, it's always nice to see us get our medals... but for me, I got more excited seeing Gemma in the Judo yesterday, and Peter winning at the shooting, whereas with Cycling I fully expect us to get some medals, same as I expect Rebecca to get her medal later tonight. Still special to see us do well and for those saying that we were doing terrible will have to be feeling pretty silly now, considering we're 4th and could be 3rd only behind countries we fully expect not to beat.

[Marc]

:amazed: I don't know what to reply but :amazed:

[Black Dagger]

:amazed: I don't know what to reply but :amazed:

I went on a mini patriotic rant... I don't think it warranted much of a reply but :amazed:
