Mark Connolly Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 So if it's a tie they base it on penalties? Yip. Kind of like a home game for one of the Old Firm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 When did England start using Jerusalem as their anthem? Delhi - IIRC they had a public poll, and it came out as the winner comfortably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.V.T. Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Delhi - IIRC they had a public poll, and it came out as the winner comfortably. Good choice in fairness. I remember we had Scotland the Brave as our medal winning anthem in Melbourne 06. It was superb. The whole crowd, no matter what nation, clapped along!

Mark Connolly Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 England used to have Land of Hope and Glory. Ours changed in 2010 as well, after they asked the athletes competing what they would prefer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Tasty stuff in the boxing. McFadden of Scotland beat the World no1, Selby of Wales. Selby lost his mouthpiece four times during the last round and was given warnings which effectively knocked him out of it. Knowing this, McFadden was totally bamming him up, throughout the whole final round. Just watched that on BBC One - McFadden was totally ripping the pish in that final round. Brilliant.

Mark Connolly Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Welsh boy is a right sore loser. He had a swing at McFadden after the bell too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamieson finished well done the field. The world record holder didn't make it either. Benson and Murdoch are in the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Connolly Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 After a humiliating 16-0 defeat to South Africa yesterday, Trinidad and Tobago's Women's Hockey team put in a vastly improved performance in losing 14-0 to NZ. Highlights included one of the Black Sticks being raging at missing a sitter at 14-0, and the T&T captain slowing down the game by walking to free hits in a manner and pace resembling my 89yo granny.

supermik Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Why does that one armed swimmer not just go round in circles? Also surely the poor Kenyan girl should have been in a different classification to give her a more even chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigOutYourSoul Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Mentioned it about a week ago that Dan would win the IM, 20/1 if anyone else backed it. Odds have slashed from 66/1 to 20/1 for the 400 which is his better event. What a swim!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainspotter Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 With a name like Wallace... If anyone wishes to discuss his accent, I suggest they head over to the Independence forum where there are a number of like minded individuals waiting with open arms....

It's the same across all the para sports that are going on during the Games. Now that it's been incorporated more and more into the Commonwealth Games it should encourage more to take part.
