Thought I'd start a general thread for the up coming Olympics.
Well it's started already. Two goals from Ellen White gave the GB Women football team a 2-0 win over Chile this morning.
Anybody watch it?
First shock of the tournament.....

Love most sports but I do feel for the competitors , media seemed to have mixed feelings about it . Down to money no doubt but should never have taken place.
