6 more golds you mean since the table is sorted by golds. We don't have as many medals as some of the countries below us.

But yes its nice seeing GB up there.

Ah wicked! I watched the Marathon last night, it was amazing, the pace that they run throughout the whole race is pretty amazing to be fair.

After 26 miles, I think it's cruel to expect them to do a lap of honour, lol.

Britain are doing well this time but its on track and field that they will struggle with although we always used to do well there.

I just hope britain havent peaked too early as now expectations will be sky high for the 2012 Olympics.

the thing is for 2012, we need more school's to be pushing sports now, and school's are not doing that.

Though if under aged drinking was an Olympic sport then we would be guaranteed a gold medal

Or synchronised queuing and/or moaning. Britain would do well at those

Jon · 17-08-08, 11:46 AM

Or tea drinking

The irony!

alphawoo · 22-08-08, 05:20 PM

Were doing well for the little ****ries we are

xbox360guy · 22-08-08, 07:09 PM

russia are right up behind us now though. Hopefully we'll be able to hold on to 3rd place till sunday

**arcticfox** · 22-08-08, 07:32 PM

Last time we finished 10th with 9 golds, 9 silver and 12 bronze, totaling 30 medals so its a huge achievement this time and is certainly nice to not be hearing how terrible we have done.

domel9 · 22-08-08, 09:08 PM

Quite surprising actually to hear that we're doing well at sport. Very nearly caught up by Russia though, and they're good at the old athletics! Ah well.. Probably beaten Australia which was the aim wasn't it? That's what I read on an interview with some high-up sports person.

Speaking of which, BBC NEWS | UK | 'Sour grapes' at GB success.

Simmo · 22-08-08, 11:37 PM

Yeah its great we're doing good considering just how small we are in comparison to countries like Russia, France and Germany.

Pity our boxer lost to the Irish boxer earlier!

corky20 · 23-08-08, 04:04 AM

GB are doing great this time... is great to be hearing how well we're doing... still some more medals to be won... Tom Daley is in the Semi Final of the diving and hopefully Price can get gold in the boxing!

...and hopefully it'll be even better in London 2012!

Watched the BMX last night... was expecting GB to win the womans (can't remember her name lol) but she fell at the last corner in the final... was really hoping she would win!

It's soo late... Final of the football is on!

Doctor · 23-08-08, 08:40 AM

Fourth place now

Ilikefree · 23-08-08, 08:44 AM

Nooo! Russia 3rd!
