We're already in joint 3td position in terms of golds, and the only games that come close within 100 years in Beijing, and we'll beat that with 4 more Golds!

A new golden era is here.

By that I was referring to GB'S performance in every game, nit between countries...

Too fucking right it will Gary!

To avoid pissing people off, just give it to "Team GB" and be done with it.

Hardly, Wiggins has done more overall than the others. But 'Team GB' will win the team one.



Hmm, pie.

6 golds in one day for GB...wow! :0

Athletics was fantastic to watch



Really good day of action today. Gb did really well :). Cant wait for the women's volleyball and basketball tomorow. Hoping turkey can beat the USA in volleyball. Unlikely, but these games keep throwing out surprises.

Cant wait for the wrestling either!

I think he means that at this stage (8 days in) in 2008 we only had 7 golds.



I'm so happy, I think Mexico - Brazil is gonna be the football final match!!!

A gold medal in football for Mexico would be great!!!!



Can GB repeat yesterday today? We have a couple rowing medal races we could win. 3 Velodrome finals, 2 Murray tennis finals and a couple others.

I reckon 7 medals, 3 Gold.

i thought the rowing has finished,but what a night in the athletics stadium truly memorable for the crowd there amazing for ennis and her medal ceremony,farah and rutherford will get the same treatment tonight

ennis a real treasure for gb athletics dealt with the pressure of a country and the media.mens 100m tonight the french put lemaitre in the 200m then i remember seeing the bolt doco and the french coach saying he will go for the best chance of a medal so not wasting enrgy on the 100m races

so what happened to Russia then,i've been watching sport for years where have the medals gone can't see enough events for them to catch GB in golds now,how the mighty have fallen where did all the golds used to come from can't be all gymanstics
