shunkyboy and the fluffer Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Watched a bit this morning in the modern pentathlon. Kate French won gold for Britain. In the showjumping round you get allocated a horse some good some shit. Anyway the leader some German girl was in tears by the time she steared her horse onto the course and for good reason. This fucker wasn't playing ball for anyone and lots of refusals piss takes and tears later she went from leading by miles to being eliminated. My only thought is after five years of training is how must she now hate that horse #mylittlepony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hertsscot Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Nobody mentioned Josh Kerr, terrific fun to get bronze in 1500m, faster than Cram, Coe, Ovett. Only Farah has gone faster, really unlucky not to have got silver, another 5 metres and it would have been his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scots on the podium in the men's and women's 1500m, absolutely brilliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
