      They didn't do so bad 4 years later also in Brazil. (No more East Germans to contend with...you know, the women sprinters with few extra hairs). There's a lot of money put into to training today, and the results show it. In the Olympic games in Atlanta 1996 games saw Great Britain's worst performance at a Summer Olympics since 1952. As final medal rankings were tabulated, Great Britain finished in 36th position, with just one gold and overall total of just 15 medals. Then they realized something had to be done. Investion though amongst other things lotteries. Maybe the Atlanta disaster was a wake-up call.

      @@justclosing Atlanta stands out for me as the most chaotic Olympics in history. From the lack lustre opening ceremony, with Oprah trying to kick a football into the net, to shootings, inept organisers, dreadful team lodgings, failure of equipment, lack of proper and timely transport from the teams village, to name but a few. It was the only time that the Olympic President failed to congratulate the US for a successful games, because they were a perfect example of how to not showcase an international sporting event.

    This was exceptional sportsmanship from the UK. These Olympics touched a lot of people, including your Trans-Atlantic cousins here in the US! I even cried when Jessica Ennis won, and I'd barely heard of her then. I also think Andy Murray is an absolute legend. GB captivated and dominated in 2012 as far as I'm concerned. Normally, I would never utter such words- but when I recall these London games, I have to give in and say Rule Britannia:) Lots of love from California.

      It's not about helping each other out and trying to stand on each others own two feet. Britain has been united for hundreds of years they have always been together in wars and in sports. Stop chatting shit please. Try concentrate on your own countries achievements.

    • @krosbone3139
      @krosbone3139 8 лет назад

      Brans 2468 it is helping out if you think about it especially in team sports its a unfair advantage especially to smaller nations whom compete solely for their nation eg. If England weak in a certain position fill it up with either the best from the Scots or Welsh so your so call history of combine international sporting program need to change for the fairness to lesser nations, so not talking shit here just sporting fairness.

    Possible facts not generally known, no. 1, GB is the only country ever to win at least 1 gold medal at every Olympics held, no. 2, London is the only city to have staged the Olympics 3 times, no. 3, GB is the only country to have won more gold medals than the rest put together at an Olympics, and no. 4. GB is the only country to have improved their tally of medals at a subsequent Olympics.

Walsall the area I live next to was put on the Map at the Paraolympics with Ellie Symonds the girl who trained in the Swimming Baths I had swam in winning gold. Ten years later At the Queens Jubilee Diversity highlighted that for a Country with half of 1 percent of the world's population we have done some amazing achievements. It makes you to proud to be British I will be English first and foremost but during those times of reuniting I would be British. Now Birmingham my local large city has the Commonwealth Games, hopefully many iconic moments at the Alex are had. Cus no matter what people say about this rock in the Atlantic ocean we are truly special.

    2012, 2016 ..Just a little bit more than Matthew Pinsent and Steve Redgrave. GB's only Gold in Atlanta 1996. I think GB has made up for terrible appearances in the World- and European Cup by being 3rd in Rio and 4th in London. Maybe we should have had a UK team in football.
