Olympic & Paralympic Games London 2012

[Adam]

Massive statement of intent from GB and Chris Hoy in particular.

[Matt]

New Olympic Record!

They were saying earlier when someone else set the new OR that they believe that to be wrong because our winning time in Beijing was in the 42s.

[Adam]

Victoria Pendleton is such a demon of a rider, superb.

[Matt]

I missed that, why might we be getting DQed?

[Lineker]

Potential of a DQ for us here :/

[Dan]

Yeah looks like they're gone.

[Adam]

Good to see that the horrendous problems with displaying times and scores isn't restricted to just the road cycling

[Matt]

I don't understand what's taking so long, either they broke the rules or they didn't.

The four badminton teams are disqualified.

Looks like another example of management penalizing the rank and file for the former's mistakes. The badminton bigwigs should have clarified this much earlier if they didn't want multiple competitors from different countries assuming that tanking was a legitimate strategy.

No DQ!!

[Katsuya]

DQ!

[Matt]

They're now saying we have been DQed.

[Lineker]

Or there might be a DQ! >_<

[Adam]

According to them they are out, based on visuals!?

How ridiculous this is.

[therockbox]

Nobody has a clue.

[Lineker]

DQ has been announced.

[MJB]

As someone who can't see what's going on, anyone care to explain? Who might be being DQ'ed and for what?

[Jimmy]

What's happening?

[maninblack]

They should file an appeal ASAP.

[SeanDMan]

Well hopefully when they book the rematch it's Hell In A Cell, no Dq.
