Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Neill Prendeville this morning - PJ Coogan was on - now this story is completely unbelievable. Young chap called James went to compete in the Shot putt in the special Olympics event on Saturday. Wins his event - but is disqualified for achieving a throw more then 10 percent longer then his previous best. Unbelievable stuff…

Wins his event - but is disqualified for achieving a throw more then 10 percent longer then his previous best.

Unbelievable stuff :mad: - this young chap has autism and went out there and did brilliant.

Stupid stupid rule book :mad:, nice live lesson for the chap - who can't understand that he lost his event due to a stupidly implemented rule.
