Current medal haul 11 Gold, 7 Silver and 8 Bronze. Only seems a few days ago folks were moaning we weren't winning any.

With Ennis and Farah going later we should see that gold column go up, and the 2 guys in the long jump have a good chance of getting something as there's no one setting that alight.

to move down a fair few messages - Dai Greene, wasn't great but was beaten by 3 guys running seasons best after they used him as a rabbit, terrible lane draw for him, and shocking that 4 of the 6 fastest were in the same semi.  in the other 2 semi's he'd have come top 2 confortably.

Butland should have done better with that, Team GB down 1-0 against South Korea.

Never noticed this before but aaron ramsey looks a lot like michael owen...

on topic, terrible penalty but my my that goalkeeper has had a howler.  after that we need to have a go from distance, see if he's mentally strong enough to recover.

Well...I was half right.

Two very poor penalties.
