As much as I dislike the Team GB, I'm not that keen on the ''We've got 50 athletes/9medals'' Reporting Scotland parochial stuff either. I'm just a grumpy Gus probably. Which one ? Skinner just got cycling silver and Murray next for gold or silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching the pommel horse a wee bit ago and they never said when one of them had a wee wobble or slight mistake. Went on as if every move was perfect but yet every other nation they would pipe up about any wee slip. Only time I heard them say anything bad was during the replay when the gymnast commentator said about Max's leg being slightly bent My mistake it was a comment about not going to jail for insider trading and phone hacking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weekevie04 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 The Men's Gold final in tennis has been superb so far. Murray took an early lead, JDP came back to tie it up to 4-4, now Muzza has a chance for the first set. Superb! Murray is tremendous. The last few years his whole game has come on.

sbcmfc Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Must admit, I don't watch a lot of tennis, but the Argentinian following behind Del Potro is quality! Quite unusual in my limited experience of watching tennis. Ive bet over 3.5 sets, so looking for Del Potro to win a set, then I can go to bed! Don't really care who wins. (Had £300 to turn over to lift a bonus...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weekevie04 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I've backed Del Potro throughout the tournament. He was 8/1 against Djoko, 13/8 v Nadal and 10/3 today. Decided to chuck a few quid on him when he lost the first set at 8/1 as well - so fingers crossed. I'd quite like to see Del Potro win after his injuries and I enjoy watching him, but also would be pleased if Andy does it too. The 'Tina fans are class. Rowdy and having one hell of a time.

Although with the exception of the Davis Cup it's as close to home as they'll get to seeing one of their own going for a major title.

Unless I misheard it but I don't think so. You didn't but the cameraman sorted the commentator out by immediately focusing in on the Jimmy hats followed by the pregnant pause from the commentator. Bet you he doesn't make the same mistake in this coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
