We already overtook China in the Gold medals but we now equal them in total medals. Incredible stuff considering the relative difference in both population and wealth.

The way we've progressed since Atlanta '96 we'll be catching the United States for Gold Medals in a few years time!!

If only someone could do whatever the hell it is we have done with every other Olympic sport and apply it to football and rugby then we'd be in business.

Funnily it seems as simple as being ruthless and not having favourites... If you dont produce the results in the team then you get dropped
Whereas with England Football Team it seems to be a jolly boys club!!
Prior to this Olympics, GB was already the most successful Olympics country*. We're now even further ahead of everyone else.
*How it's worked out. 1. Take every country who has competed in every Summer and Winter Olympics, since their introduction. 2. Rank them in order of Gold, Silver and Bronze medals won.
(OK, so there are only two other countries. But first out of three is still first, right?)

Annoyed that the South African got bronze after doing no work in the ten man break. His team-mate who wasn't in the lead group came 4th. Must have had a storming run and will be a danger in future.

Whenever the triathlon isn't on they seem to be ignored and have never made the shortlist for SPOTY!!
This year's competition will be so hard to call, but if Farah wins on Sat in the 5k, I think he'll get it
Can we make it to 60 medals?
Piss poor from the BBC. Watching stuff live on One, they then say turn over to Two to catch up with the boxing. Get the last 45 seconds of the bout.

Maybe it was just me not paying attenion.
