So, where team GB won less golds in 2016 than they did in 2012, does that mean they done worse this time around?

No he doesn't count those 2 golds because they were won by a Somalian.

Who I may add does not even live in Britain, he chooses to live in the USA. What a joke, a Britain not born in Britain, and a Britain who does not live in Britain won the only two gold medals on the track for Team GB. I like Mo though, he seems humble enough.

Yes, although I'd imagine they sent less athletes to Rio than London

think its scandalous how the british media are doing some kind of hatchet job on rio now

they're talking about how rio 'got away with it'.. most of the things that were predicted, didnt happen so rio ;got away with it'..

on sky sports news earlier on today, they were saying this hasnt been the best of games.. and mentioned the pool and the american incident .. like the american who lied about being mugged was the fault of the rio games organisers..

There seems to be a lot of other countries asking how come GB did so well in the cycling, after showing next to nothing in pretty well every cycling event since the London games. Cycling is rife with drugs and doping, so wouldn't surprise me if some have been taken a few substances to up their performances. No smoke without fire as they say.

Drugs aren't an advantage when everyone is on them

Its silly to assume the people doing well are the only ones cheating.

Though I guess its also partly due to how its reported. Most media outlets care about champions and medal winners getting popped. Does anyone really care if a guy that finished 13th in something is banned
