What is wrong?

[semi-pro waster]

There's still 4 medals to come in the cycling alone (men's sprint, women's sprint, men's kierin, women's omnium). The first 3 are almost certain golds (Clancy, Pendleton and Hoy).

It is/was Jason Kenny in the mens sprint but I'd agree Team GB has a great chance in the remaining events in the velodrome. I just don't want to count them until they're actually won, sport can always offer up surprises.

I've got to say though Victoria Pendleton was looking very good tonight, she just blew away the other girl as if she wasn't there.

I missed Kenny's win I thought the Equestrian gold was our 17th

Yeah you're right mate I got it the wrong way round Kenny was the 18th

This is looking good. We only need 8 medals of any colour to achieve the predicted target of going one better than beijing. And 1 more gold to match beijing. I'm sure that's doable?

This is how it stands as of this moment.

 

[Superficial]

We actually have 2 more medals I believe in the boxing but because their colour has not been decided yet they are not shown.

 

[Mark A]

edit, ignore, i was looking at the wrong tables

Just matched our gold total from Beijing, but a few more to go for total medal count.

I think we are living in halcion times, we will never see the likes of this performance again in our lifetime. I'm making sure I enjoy every last minute of it.

In fact I've just seen with the guaranteed boxing medals and the one guaranteed sailing we have reached our minimum target of 48 medals

With the medals we have guaranteed we're already at 48 We have 4 in the bag from boxing and at least a silver from sailing atm.

I've just seen that our Sports Minister Sports minister, Hugh Robertson, has had a bet with Kate Lundy the Aussie equivalent about who will come higher in the medal table and she will have to don Team GB gear and row the full course length at Eton Dorney just before the Paralympics

 

[Icm76]

Twenty golds now

is that the sound of Gabby Logan peeing her pants with excitement?

 

[el_dazza]

21

 

[mmj_uk]

We have equalled Beijing overall count now I think?

 

[Craig1981]

I think were on the road to exceeding it actually. 22 gold now

 

[Icm76]

it's better than Beijing already!

22 gold vs 19, equal silver total of 13 and equal total of 47 overall

Third Opinion needs to get a second opinion

GO GREAT BRITAIN!!

 

[NZB]

Even if we don't win any more than what we're already guaranteed we'd end the olympics with 52 medals. Getting another 8 and hitting 60 would be outstanding.

We have someone in each of tonight's boxing quarterfinals too, if they both get through to the semis then that's another 2 to the guaranteed list for a total of 7 on top of the 47 we already have.

 

[Judgeneo]

Who else do we have that are possible gold medal winners?

 

[NZB]

Who else do we have that are possible gold medal winners?

Anthony Ogogo is a possibility for gold in the boxing and we have someone guaranteed a silver in the sailing that's also a possibility for gold.

Anthony Ogogo is a possibility for gold in the boxing and we have someone guaranteed a silver in the sailing that's also a possibility for gold.

And on the BMX

 

[elmuzzy66.]

So nay sayers were are you?

 

[NZB]

And on the BMX

Yeah, i didn't even know we had someone good in that until 20mins ago. It's really hard to keep track of our possibilities in all these sports especially when i know nowt about most of them
