Thank God for Katie Taylor then

Marc 07-08-2012 11:08 AM

Niamh if that happened you'd probably win something :pipe:

Niamh. 07-08-2012 11:33 AM

Katie will get us a gold :pipe:

1 gold isn't bad when you consider the population of Ireland is half the size of the population of London

Marc 07-08-2012 11:38 AM

Well I heard that in Atlanta GBR only won 1 Gold medal and Ireland got 3 :pipe:

We might get 2, John Joe Nevin is still in the running, isn't he?

Black Dagger 07-08-2012 12:22 PM

Another 2 medals for GB.

And we can still get up to 5 today.

Dressage
Pendleton
Hoy
Trott
Sailing?

Novo 07-08-2012 12:25 PM

Amazing stuff...

Lets hope the other 4 I've gone for get Gold, I'll say Trott gets silver though, maybe Dressage as well.

Novo 07-08-2012 12:29 PM

This how we compare to the Beijing total now

London 2012

19 Gold
12 Silver
12 Bronze

Beijing 2008

19 Gold
13 Silver
15 Bronze


Nearly there now :pipe:

4 more medals to equal our all time best in medal total

Kizzy 07-08-2012 12:54 PM

If yorkshire were a country we would be in 10th place with 4 gold medals :)

Marc 07-08-2012 12:55 PM

I heard that fact on the Radio yesterday.

Novo 07-08-2012 12:55 PM

Yeah but i bet most the people who came from Yorkshire don't actually train in yorkshire :pipe:

Novo 07-08-2012 01:08 PM

With four medals in boxing now guaranteed, and a silver for Luke Patience and Stuart Bithell in the 470 class at worst still to come, Great Britain are now certain to win at least 48 Olympic medals.

That will surpass the tally from Beijing 2008 and reach UK Sport's minimum target.

Black Dagger 07-08-2012 01:09 PM

Absolutely fantastic.

I think we could get at least 2 gold in the Boxing, definitely some silver at least.

Didn't know about the 470, that is incredible.

It's all shaped up nicely, I wasn't expecting this.

Shaun 07-08-2012 01:52 PM

:amazed:

4 GOLD MEDALS TODAY.

Should really have been a 5th, but somebody other than GB had to do well in the cycling I suppose.

Could we have another shock medal this evening in the high jump? Maybe a bronze, we can hope so.

All the more reason that they didn't train there then since all the Chinese would have hogged the place :pipe:

Marc 08-08-2012 09:38 AM

48 Medals :love:

Black Dagger 08-08-2012 09:40 AM

So proud <3.

I think today and the rest of the week we'll slow down now.

Skeleton has a potential medal in the show-jumping but that might be it today.
