    My thoughts exactly... Fuck football, it gets enough attention the other 50 weeks of the year.

    Ive been waiting for us to win one game of basketball or handball. I'd prefer that over the football.

    Alright its not going to happen but I can hope.

    I think that Ennis was a real favourite for her event, but it is Mo Farah that really is the star of tonight for me. He kept himself in the right position despite attacks from various sides, and then executed the game plan perfectly. Galen Rupp did exceptionally well for the US too, and this must be the first time in decades that the African nations haven't been on the top two steps of the 10k podium.

    So Murray in two finals today. Do we have any other medal hopes today? Even if they are outside chances.

    Ben Ainslie in the sailing. Im hoping he wins gold and then nuts the Dane on the podium. The mens Omnium wraps up today.

    Few highlights for today.

    SAILING (14:00): Ben Ainslie, Finn class
    Ainslie has been involved in a dramatic battle with Denmark's Jonas Hogh-Christensen all week and he goes into Sunday's decisive Finn medal race knowing a fourth gold medal is tantalisingly close. Iain Percy and Andrew Simpson might be a safer bet (13:00) for Britain having dominated the Star class.
    TENNIS (14:00): Andy Murray, men's singles and mixed doubles
    Murray returns to Centre Court for another crack at Roger Federer just four weeks after losing the Wimbledon final to the Swiss star, and as in Grand Slams the Olympic final will also be played over five sets. Murray could end the day as a double Olympic champion as he then teams up with Laura Robson to play Max Mirnyi and Victoria Azarenka in the mixed doubles final.
    TRACK CYCLING (10:00-18:47): Ed Clancy, men's omnium
    Clancy will start the second and final day of the multi-discipline omnium in fourth place after winning the flying lap, finishing 11th in the points race and fifth in the elimination race on Saturday. With his stronger events to come in the individual pursuit (10:00), scratch race (17:01) and time trial (18:16), a medal is a real possibility.
    GYMNASTICS (15:41): Louis Smith, apparatus finals
    Smith won bronze on the pommel horse in Beijing and is a candidate for gold in London after finishing top in qualification with one of the most difficult routines in the world.

    Is Michael Johnson part of Team GB now? We would have taken him 20 odd years ago, all he had to do was ask.

    We could potentially equal our Beijing gold medal haul today. We should win 2 in the sailing and 1 in the gymnastics I reckon. If Murray can pick up one and Ed Clancy can come through in the Omnium we'll be there.

    Also the small matter of the mens 100m tonight. I have a feeling Bolts going to bottle it and pull up half way down clutching a hamstring. Of course now that I've said that I fully expect him to jog to victory.

    I'm not convinced of that mate...after all, his main challenger is Robbie Blake isn't it?
