Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

People wearing jeans halfway down their legs. You don't look trendy, you look ridiculous!

Expectations and reporting "Usian Bolt failed to..." Failed? Really?

The A303, particularly when reconfigured by a broken-down car into a single-track road.

In the Bolt documentary, I was astounded to hear his agent say injuries had stopped Bolt from reaching his full potential. What else was the man expected to do? Take-off?

BBC athletics "coverage" - they spend at least 50% of their time pontificating about stuff (despite the cheers going on the background) and only show heats of an event with a Brit or the hot favourite in. Show the competition you muppets.

Watched it on Eurosport last night - sexist commentary but at least you get to see pretty much all the events.....

I find Gabby Yorath quite painful now.

Michael Johnson is quite brilliant.

Cram was pitiful the other day.

I love watching the heats where you have competitors from lots of wonderful places - they may finish way behind the winners but still achieve PBs or national records which is great for a sport that is allegedly trying to be more inclusive.

The trailer for the new Len Goodman game show. I must have seen it about 20 times and it's not making me want to watch the programme.
