    I'm an awful cynic but this flag wrapping thingy after every race is highly irritating.

    Sorry I'd missed that part.

    Some tasty women in that high jump.

    the event demands long long legs so when you get a good-looking face with it they look like models.
    That Ukranian one Levchenko is pretty attractive it has to be said. Will probably get silver also.

    Delighted to see Farah beaten after Foster's ridiculous 'mesmerising' commentary.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,009 ✭✭✭✭titan18


    Yes. Love that. Commentators for 4.8k being like Farah has got this, what are all these idiots doing, running right into Farah's hands here. Nice to see egg on their faces

    Well that makes sense in your head I'm sure.

    Cram and Foster didn't have a ****ing clue what to say there at the end.

    Cracking end to the race. Thought Farah had them on the back straight and then Chelimo came past him.

    The commentary there... my word

    End of a questionable career in many eyes. There'll always be questions


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,600 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    Hellacious last lap..

    Mo hadn't the speed. Tremendous effort..

    The commentators had Farah winning the race from the first lap, it was just a question by how much. Awful stuff.

    Check the Mo's Doorbell twitter account, pinned tweet at the top. More than a few reasons to be suspicious.

    The Ethiopians had a plan it seems.

    No questions in the eyes of the Beeb.
    Questionable tactics by the Brits too... The Scottish lad ran up from the back and in my opinion, blocked off the tall Ethiopian that was on Farah's shoulder, before disappearing again. No mention in the commentary obviously, maybe they were mesmerised :)
    Now Paula is talking about the 3 Ethiopians blocking off St. Mohammad, they were ****ing 5 yards ahead of him Mrs.
