That’s a right wee shame The BBC will have to keep on about them BEATING AUSTRALIA in the Gold Coast for at least another four years. At every opportunity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabGaz Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 The low, close-up camera angle on the home straight at the athletics is infuriating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably wrote the Gambian boy off when he went past him on the first bend. Storming finish from him. Kind of thing you normally only see in para races. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Predictably the Welsh wifey that just had the bairn that the bbc had their wee piece on just before the race started did nothing. The presenters asking 'just what is going on in your mind here' with every pundit is really annoying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) Boxing GOLD for Sam Hickey of Scotland. BBC did their best to avoid showing it, taking the live coverage off to show a Canadian winning the 10,000 metres silly walk and then having the iPlayer go down for a minute at a crucial stage. Scotland's first ever middleweight gold. Edited August 7, 2022 by Bully Wee Villa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 Lot of talking up pre tourney of England's women in the T20 cricket. They've ended up without a medal as they lost to New Zealand by 8 wickets, England only managed to score 110-9 which the Kiwis chased down inside 12 overs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) They were one of the favourites and you usually give a bit of an advantage to teams playing at home, so I don't see anything wrong with talking them up. They were poor today, though. Hope India beat the Aussies but I doubt it. Edited August 7, 2022 by Bully Wee Villa 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 GOLD Scotland. Sean Lazzerini, light heavyweight.Not a great fight tbh, far too much clinging on to each other. Finished strongly though and that probably shaded it for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) 4:1 split in the last round. Trinidadian judge's missus must have ran off with a Scotsman. He was the only judge to back the Welshman in rounds 1 and 3 and the only one to give him a comfortable lead in round 2. Scotland beat their 2018 gold tally and guaranteed to beat their total medal tally, too. Edited August 7, 2022 by Bully Wee Villa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
