I thought the French guy caused the problem with a push and a change of lanes, and I also agree with Mills that the Frenchness of the opponent might play into any appeal decision, but I agree that it's not helpful or classy him saying so in the interview!

Am I right that he can only be reinstated if someone is adjudged to be at fault, and if that happens the at fault athlete would have to be disqualified? I'm not 100% on what the rules are in these circumstances.

Phil - so far yes. Not sure if there's been any complaint or investigation triggered.

Maybe it's dominoes and they can disqualify whoever pushed the Frenchman?

BBC have said that Mills and other fallers have been advanced. Not sure about the Frenchman as to whether he is still in.

I should think so too, that was blatant.

Good effort from Pattison in the 800m heat, some finishing speed there!

About This Thread

Maintained by Curly45
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).
