Surrey Phil 7 Aug 10:31am, 7 Aug 2024 10,602 posts	0 Surrey Phil Steve Cram echoed what I was thinking. It was far too slow and that it would get dangerous in the last lap or so. Mills had already been bumped before he got tripped and brought three others down.
Big_G 7 Aug 10:51am, 7 Aug 2024 3,840 posts	0 Big_G Yes, shame about reaction from Mills. He even implied in the interview that he wouldn’t get a fair go in any appeal because the competition is in France.

Surrey Phil 7 Aug 11:03am, 7 Aug 2024 10,603 posts	0 Surrey Phil It looked as if the French guy nudged Mills in the back just before the incident and then went from lane 1 to lane 2 where Mills was. It would be interesting if the British team appeal to get Mills reinstated. Did the French guy actually qualify?

Couldn't find a thread so thought I would start one.

Who else is off to watch or who is watching at home?

We're doing Lille and Paris and a mix of sports. Currently trying to find travel insurance that includes ticket cancellation as some of the trains in the UK might be difficult and we have some internal French trains to do as well.

Also need to work out the new Paris metro ticket/app combo (Navigo I think).
