Gold for Ainsley. Well done fella.
Clearly gold for Ben is written somewhere in the depths of the Olympic Charter!

That Greg Rutherfords from Milton Keynes, Brilliant

How many medals you Brummies won ? (genuine question)
No we haven't done very well. A bluenose tried to get into the games disguised as a Fencer but I am afraid his guise didn't work!

Jess has wiped the floor with her fellow hepathletes and clearly with her looks there in no way Rutherford or Farah were going to knock her off the front page. At another time  their achievements would have been worthy of banners on front pages.

Are we sure that Mo won the 10,000m last night? 

I went for a coffee this morning and the only paper I could find was the Mail on Sunday.  I looked in both the sports bit and the news sections and they have hardly mentioned it.

Would that be the Daily Mail? If so, they're probably too busy trying to have him deported for not being born in Britain.

6-2 6-1. This is mental! Just keep up anything near this form and he'll do it, Rog looks leggy.

I thought that the Olympics were a Three Set tournament.

Is it just the final that's  Five-Setter ?

That's right. They still have the champion tie-break in the final set though.
