COME ON U-NI-TE'ED
Also I saw a reporter on phoner-inner had commented that in the Olympics most of Britains medals have come from events in which we are sitting on our arses. I shall spend the next week trying to spot PG - another certain Gold there surely?
Britain.... Great at boats bikes and beasts.

Is it really a competition when the clubs with the biggest chequebooks always win? There is always debate about the salary cap system imposed by the 2 biggest codes here but it does seem to make for an even contest.

There's always some stuffy English suited knob with a crest on his chest handy to fill in urban lore with pulp like this...
"6. The Boat Race is a rowing race between the Oxford University Boat Club and the Cambridge University Boat Club. It is rowed annually each Spring on the Thames in London..... The boat race this year will be won by Oxford, and millions will watch the televised coverage."
I wonder if any Cambridge students or faculty will have a supply of rotting fruit and vegetables come "this year"?
I'd love to see those boat crews go up against a few Dragon boats with riff raff off the street cobbled together to row them against these clubs. That would certainly give it a touch more sporting flavour!
Oh... and my money, this year, will be on Crewe to take the F.A. Cup, The Premier Division, and anything else in the realm of possibility from the bottom of a bottle

edit: clearly my post here scared the poo out of those in charge, and the result has been overturned. There are suggestions the judges weren't cheating, but that 2 of them must have been unsighted. Hmmm. maybe for future bouts it might help if they had the judges inside the stadium then.

What gets me is they work hard at the Olympics and they dont get much pennys for it but you can play footy like england lot did or well did not and get paid 1000's better off giving it to our olympic team

Well in the REVISED medal tally based on medals per head of population [20 Mil], Oz is so far ahead you are ALL eating our dust!!
You Poms SHOULD do better again in your home event... as Oz and China both have... but you'll probably just rest on your laurels from this Olympics and watch it on the telly instead of competing.

Knew you knew I would bite.... but I still bit anyhow! Bet you did it with performance enhancers tho... like fish & chips... or more likely a very hot vindaloo with 'extra' spices...
You can do all sorts of things with stats.... the Yanks reckon they are still winning coz they have more medals OVERALL... no matter that it's been total GOLD that determined ranking in the past.

Is it true that 'Royal Watching' is in as a demonstration sport?
