Good to see maslak won gold as well and a silver for Olga in the triple jump

Headie 08-03-2014 10:30 PM

Kilty was 66-1 to win coming into the championships. Blimey!

Headie 09-03-2014 12:40 PM

Final day of action starts at 2:00pm on BBC2 :)

Headie 09-03-2014 01:24 PM

KJT is currently winning in the long jump after her 2nd jump. Shara Proctor is in 3rd. Wish BBC would show us the jumps.

Headie 09-03-2014 02:17 PM

Silver for KJT! Makes up for her not being selected for the pentathlon I guess. Shara Proctor finished 4th.

Let's hope for more success later on for Team GB. Hope Andy Vernon can get a PB in this final.

Headie 09-03-2014 02:29 PM

Bleasdale - OUT

We're not doing as well as expected tbh

Headie 09-03-2014 03:25 PM

Osagie left it too late. One hundredth of a second off bronze.

Headie 09-03-2014 03:28 PM

Oh wait a minute the Polish athlete in 3rd stepped off the track. Should be a DQ but since it's in Poland I doubt it.

Headie 09-03-2014 03:50 PM

Gun has gone off about 4 times now! Athletes must be very nervous now.

Headie 09-03-2014 04:18 PM

Osagie upgraded to bronze. Women's relay also bronze. Asha Philip 4th place.

Headie 09-03-2014 07:28 PM

To sum up Team GB's performances:

Gold: Richard Kilty, 60m
Silver: Katarina Johnson-Thompson, long jump; men's 4x400m
Bronze: Tiffany Porter, 60m hurdles; Andrew Osagie 800m; women's 4x400m

Now it's just gonna be Diamond League meets from now on until major events in June/July.

Headie 25-04-2014 08:43 PM

Greg Rutherford broke the British Long Jump record today, jumping 8.51m in a meet in America.

The first Diamond League meet is on Friday May 9th

Novo 25-04-2014 10:18 PM

Tomlinson has always thought he is the better long jumper at least Rutherford has ended his claim completely now

BBfanUSA 25-04-2014 10:58 PM

Was the Meet called the Drake Relays?

Tomlinson is calling for Rutherford's record to be nullified:

Seems as though his foot touched the plasticine. Tomlinson seems like a bitter person to me.

Headie 04-05-2014 01:17 PM

Startlists for Diamond League Doha meet on Friday have been released:
http://www.diamondleague-doha.com/en...lts/Overview1/

Quite a fair bit of British athletes participating even though it's quite early on in the season.

Eilidh Child, Jenny Meadows, Shelayna Oskan-Clarke, Chris Tomlinson, Andrew Osagie and Brett Morse.

Novo 08-05-2014 03:18 PM

The Diamond League App is amazing, it was much needed as well

Jemal 08-05-2014 03:21 PM

Adam Gemili to beat Usain in rio.

Novo 08-05-2014 03:40 PM

Let's not get ahead off ourselves young Jemal

Ikr :love:

Only problem I had was that it didn't update the startlists until a few days after they'd already been releaed. Then again they were probably waiting for the lane draws before updating it.

Looking forward to tomorrow!

LOL ok, i over exaggerated.

Erm he could sneak a bronze tbh in 200m.
He done well at the world championship, high hopes for mr gemili.

Headie 09-05-2014 04:01 PM

Starting now.

I can't wait for jenny Meadows to return, hopefully in form.

Headie 09-05-2014 04:08 PM

Great running from Eilidh Child to finish 3rd.

I'll be surprised if she doesn't win the commonwealths.

Black Dagger 09-05-2014 04:10 PM

I've only just seen about Tomlinson... he sounds bitter as **** lmao.

Greg can't help that Tomlinson didn't live up to his hype.
