As said on the last page, Perri Shakes-Drayton She is so beautiful, shame she missed out on the 400 meters hurdle final. She was out, then someone was disqualified and she got in, then the woman was re-instated.
Double Olympic champion Mo Farah was being interviewd on the BBC this morning. Commentator Brendon Foster said "Every Saturday we come to the stadium and Mo wins a Gold Medal, I wonder what he'll do next saturday." Without missing a beat Mo said "Arsenal are playing!" I'll see you there Mo.
Gotta say, i'm proud to see an American Gooner win triple gold in London. I hope she sticks around for opening day as well. It would be nice to see all the Olympic Gooners sharing a box on opening day.
I watched this "Beautiful Game - Greatest FA Cup Moments" show on Fox. Warren Barton was one of the "celebs" and he chose Alan Sunderland's goal to win the Cup in '79. I thought to myself, that's odd for a died-in-the-wool Magpie to choose that. Then I heard him say "and Alan sealed the cup for us". I was like "huh?". Then he shared that he was a gooner in the 70's. You gotta be kidding me! Somehow in all the years, I managed to blissfully miss this little fact, until today. Wish I could go back in time to yesterday.
I think he came out and said he was a gunner a couple years ago no? I suppose that's why he's always bashing on us. Love and hate relationship.
hehe @ "died in the wool" never warmed to barton, either as a player or pundit, but you might have guessed who he supported being born and bred in islington.
