Pretty ironic that Moz has been attacked for being a little Englander in the past.

Yeah would have thought he'd be eating this up. Although I guess the success hasn't extended to the boxing ring...

People always question golds won by other countries. It's hilarious to see people from England questioning track athletes from OS like Steve Cramm did yesterday when their own athletes are dominating that paragon of sporting virtue called cycling. It's the same in the pool when you hear our idiotic commentators bagging the kid from China improving her time so massively, yet making no comment on Rice doing the same in Beijing four years earlier.

My personal view is every professional cyclist is on something.
That'll get you going because you've been the HonestBahrani of the UK when it's come to these Olympics, but the point I was making is you can't have a crack at the athletes from one country who lift their performances and do great things, but just turn around when someone from your own country does it and say "oh, what a great, uplifting effort". And everyone does it. |

I have defended the Chinese swimmer, yes I made a sarcastic crack that the Chinese would be within their right to question the US 800m swimmer so I have no idea what you are talking about to be honest. Since you keep telling us GB only win things sitting down you must be gutted to see us win so many in other events. |

I don't think you do your best work sitting down, I think you and the Kiwis do it sitting down AND going backwards. Furball will be pleased to know I'm hailing Scotland as the World's new sporting powerhouse. Think they've got five gold medals so far
