I fed up of these athletes only get silvers.
Do the job right and get the gold.
Funding needs to be slashed for the people who can’t deliver.

I honestly wouldn’t bother going up for anything other than a Gold medal .. why celebrate first or second loser place

It pathetic. And they are all so happy to get their silvers. Silver means nothing, if don’t have the gold you should be ashamed.

I doubt you two have ever participated in any sport in your life, so lets not be so harsh eh, being second or third in the World is an amazing achievement, many of these athletes are young as well so will gain experience and bring it in the next challenge

We have had a lot of near misses. I feel cursed because I swear every time I watch the Brit only gets a silver/bronze :skull:

I don't think I've seen a single gold

I know right. We come close but our athletes just don’t have that umph.and then they walk away happy. Cut their funding if they don’t deliver and then we will see their attitudes change.
Chinese have it right.

No what time was that? I got back to see us get get silver in 4x100 womens, bronze in mens, silver in heptathlon

Last few days I've also seen us get silver in 1500 and 400 just missing out.

Seems we get all our golds in the day time events rather than the primetime stuff

So I’ve done my research and unless we win 5 golds tomorrow this will be our most pathetic showing since Athens in 2004.
20 years!
We’ve never won so many bronze before though.
Well done us for being losers.

Losing to Australia is a really hard pill to swallow.
Let’s hope for a miracle tomorrow.
Those completing better pull their fingers out of their arses.
This isn’t a fun run jolly in the sun. It’s your ****ing job.

An E was a hard pill to swallow. Losing wasnt an issue, ever..no matter how many fingers were pulled out our arses as we loved each other, and got the job done.

this


even just competing in these olympics is already something magical to represent your country


even those missing out of the medals, can say they are 4th or 5th or 6th best of the world

2nd in Rio
To 4th in Tokyo
And now looks like 7th in Paris.

What a disgrace!
Questions need to be asked and the failed athletes need to answer

Disgraceful mentality

"I feel on top of the world. This whole week has been a rollercoaster for me, so many high and so many lows. That bronze medal felt like a gold medal to me," Finucane told BBC Radio 5 Live.

No more money for this person, she may have been dragged to a gold by her team mates in another event but she clearly has a loser mentality.

Jack Carlin was taken out by the Japanese guy as well and I swear he was taken out today as well, dont think he is very popular....he didnt deserve to go through after swerving into the Dutch guy I agree, I was surprised at that

What you talking about? Vicky Pendleton must have done better than that and Laura trott also?
How can you say she broke a 60 year long record with gold and 2 bronze?

It always amazes me how excited the Americans get at winning the basketball when they win every time, and are obviously way better that everyone else.

Flag football, which is a non-contact American football is in the next Olympics.

It’s not true. They are making up records that don’t exist to suit the narrative.
We did ****. That is the truth.
Laura trott won 2 golds
In what world is 1 gold and 2 bronze > 2 golds?
BBC need to get a grip on reality

Non contact American football sounds as interesting as alcohol free beer
