Listen you ass ;D ;D Sorry couldn't resist.

Suppose it is backhanded. It is a big deal so fair play to him. Low 20s so he always had a chance.

Kristina OHara in the boxing final! So like I said before fair play to the ones there regardless of the brit haters!

Great stuff 3 medals for norn iron that will show those f**kers from Naura all 10000 of them who kick ass meanwhile back in reality wales have 25 medals and Scotland have 35. Its embarrassing at least in the good old days we won medals in boxing, bowls, shooting and kneecapping.

NI win their first medal on the track since 1986 (and first athletics medal since 1990) with Leon Reid's bronze in the 200m.  English favourite Zharnel Hughes was disqualified from 1st place moving Reid up from 4th.

Is he Northern Irish though?

How blatant was the 'winner' nudging the guy in the next lane? totally put him off and in a photo finish the other runner would have won!

He's as Irish as Zharnel Hughes is English

Thought that myself, although the panel on the BBC were trying to say it was an accident. FFS it was like something you'd see on a GAA field, arm across the man running beside you.
Right decision all day long.

Yes, totally the right decision.  Hughes was tying up badly in the last 15 metres and his action looked deliberate to me (and the judges)

He's as Irish as Zharnel Hughes is English

He's as Irish as me i.e. He has one Irish parent. Fucked about by the British has declared his intent to run for Ireland 🇮🇪.

Born in England.  Birth mother from Belfast and adopted by a woman from Wexford.  He applied to transfer from GB to Ireland and all paperwork was passed but the IAAF have halted all transfers while they look into countries like Bahrain, Qatar and Turkey having a load of Kenyans and Ethiopians in their teams.  He's effectively unable to represent any IAAF member at the moment and it looks like he won't be able to run for Ireland in the Euros in Berlin in August

Great 4th place for kevin seaward in the marathon.

I haven't seen it yet but apparently the leader, hawkins, collapsed in a bad way with 2k to go and people just took photos and left him in a heap >:(

I was up watching the marathons last night and the womens race finished without any complications. So Hawkins the Scot was leading by a good distance with not too far to go in the mens race. I said he has this in the bag and went to bed. Then I wake up this morning to find out he collapsed. The second time in a week (after Juventus) that I wrote off  the chances of a sporting comeback and turned off the tv to go do something else.
