Well done Cal Crutchlow.
First Englishman to win a motorcycle race in the 'blue riband' class since the late great Barry Sheene...............in 1981!

Scary is No35 first time in 35 years. Dont like Cal anyway ignorant, rude head up his own arse. And yes I do know him. Not just one of those I dont like him and never met him people.

Have enjoyed the olympics. But I do think it's ridiculous how many gold medals they give out in some sports, like the cycling, we get told that some fella that we've never heard of is our greatest ever Olympian , then the camera pans to someone that you don't recognise who looks like he has just mugged Ba Baracus. The one where the 2 of them drive around slowly , the one at the front is looking at the other one who then tries to catch them out by riding off quickly is a f**king joke. The taikwondo is also ridiculous, a martial art? I'd love to have a punch up with someone that does that.
But the worst is the modern pentathlon, how do they train for that joke of an event? Run from Orpington to Quaser laser in Bromley, then nick a horse and ride it home?
I have enjoyed the olympics. But Michael Phelps isn't the greatest ever Olympian , Usain Bolt is.
3/1 for Moseph is a great price.


Jessie Owens? Lasse Veran [spell]?

Mo will get knighted.

Also, he does run very quickly. Next Olympics - expect him in the road race.

I think SPOTY ought to have a roll over as some years no one does anything of note, then other years 4 or 5 people deserve it. Personally I think Jason Kenny will get it this time.

Always one trying to piss on the parade.

Probably a few less because they are drug fuelled. Russia have been on the decline for years though so the difference would be negligible comrade

Isn't there.

The number, sadly for him, would be the same though. Russia were banned for Athletics, in which we won only 2 gold medals and in both events that the Russians are nowhere near challengers.

 


Optimistic as ever

Cycling has 18 golds in total, 9 for each sex.

Swimming has 35 in total.

Hey, I wasn't suggesting it was some kind of paranormal occurrence that I couldn't get my head around!

If Kenny does win it'll be a cyclist that has won it for 3 Olympic years in a row.

I think it should be Mo though.

It's a shame they can't both win it. I should really be biased towards Mo as I am primarily a 5000m runner at my running club and I can't ride a bike, but I am slightly leaning towards JK.

The Olympic glut years do make for a hard choice.
This is why I said Mo should've got it after his 2nd double gold at the Worlds last year.

Both times he's done the World double Andy Murray has won it.

Bloody Andy Murray. I mean, he's good, but he's good at a sport that NOBODY aspires to be good at. You never talk to an 8 year old who says "when I grow up I want to wear a little white PE kit and hit a ball back and forth over a net until another camp looking bloke can't hit it back".
