Entertaining final this. Think I'm the only one watching though.

Maybe not. 1-1, Max Meyer.

Brazil half an hour away from their first ever football gold medal. Neymar with the only goal of the game from a free kick.

Did you see last night where Usain Bolt was shaking hands with the women's 5000 metres winner? Looked like he was greeting a 7 year old girl.

I'll find a picture of it.

Sensing a bit of jealousy from the Irish contingent because Britain rule at sports whilst all they could muster at this Olympics was a pikey boxer throwing a hissy fit.

So cynical Kolo. :)

We do seem to be able to plug in whatever track cyclist we can into the team over the past 8 years and win medals. Don't think it's as a result of doping though or even talent, I believe it's because of minutely detailed preparation by the team behind the riders. They always ...

Kenny gets his 6th gold.

We're now 4 golds ahead of China in the overall medal table.

We've won a sailing gold as well.

Super Sunday anyone?

Would be an immense feat if we could stay above China. Never gonna happen though.

Kriz got there first.

Potential goldrush for Britain today. Guaranteed a track cycling one and Murray's the big favourite later on.

I kind of feel the same. It's win-win either way though.

Says I should put it in my highlights then admits he's not actually arsed about it. You flip-flopper you.

You could get your wish, don't think golf will be in the 2024 Olympics if the top players don't take it more seriously next time.

Looking like either him or Stenson.

When do the leaders start their final round?

I'll be recording it.
