    Default What a day for Team GB

    Well done Team GB, 3 Gold medals and 3 Silver in one day. And a few Scots in the winning teams.

    Wonder if Alec Salmond tries to take credit for this.

    Thought the silver in the judo was a certain gold, but the American was better all round in the final!
    Gold and silver in the canoes
    Gold in the clays was in the bag early on but nearly lost.....

    Yes, I think an Independent Scotland would be holding their own in the medals table...at least at the next Limpiks we will be able to cheer on "Team Scotland"...or "Team Alba"!!!

    Yes and when they stopped that, and concentrated on their events they would probably do well in the Olympics

    The Equestrian team are doing really well too. Silver in the Team Eventing and, fingers crossed, we'll get a place in the Team and Individual Dressage

    i thought that great britain was made up of wales northen ireland scotland and england perhaps if we all pulled together without certain people going on about independant scotland and support all the gb team and be proud of what they do . It might be a better country to leave,there is to much racist all over britain . after all everyone of us contribute in making it great

    What has racism got to do with supporting Team GB or Team Scotland? Surely it's to do with whichever team you support?

    OK, I accept that Starfish but it's not Racism is it? Scots and English are more or less the same race last I heard. You cant force 4 nations to pull together as one and that is what some are trying to do on this Forum!

    you agree thats a first. i also agree that you can not force people to get along but it would be nice instead of pushes indepenence of scotland on every thread would also be nice we all got our on thoughts on that but do not keep pushing it after all england provide a lot of employment in scotland which must be good for the ecomony

    Great Britain is made up of Scotland, England and Wales. Northern Ireland is added to make up the UK. I don't know why this is so and have no inclination to Google it, I'm going out for a fag now. :-)
