Oleksiy Kasyanov, overnight leader in the decathlon, has pulled out before the start of today's events. Now hopefully Joubert+Ponsero+Preaubert Romain Barras can go on and win. :grope:

In the 110m hurdles, Stanislav Olijars from Latvia has been disqualified. I'm assuming it's for a false start.

And a very clear one! :drama:
Well at least Latvia already has a surprise gold from these Championships! :cheer2:

Barcelona Euros don't have a mascot?

Barcelona Euros don't have a mascot?

They have Barni (http://www.bcn2010.org/files/13-14203-imatge/DSC_0055%20retocada.jpg). Somehow it reminds me of a giant sperm. :shuffle:

Wheeeee Finnish decathlete guy threw the discus about 5 metres further than anybody else! :cheer:
Being from a small nation, you have to find joy in little things. :shuffle:

Unless Draudvila has a superb pole vault that he's being hiding, it's looking good for Krauchanka. Barras could have really used a few more metres in the discus throw. :drama:

[allezfred]

The weather in Barcelona! :eek:

[allezfred]

Nobody else watching? :drama:

Lemaitre looking very good to do the double in the 200m. And another Irishman makes a sprint final.

5 points separate Romain Barras and Eelco Sintnicolaas going into the 1500m in the decathlon. :drama:

Ivan "The Drunk" Ukhov (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZq-6PL8L6A) gets silver in the high jump. :40beers:

[C_T_T_]

I'm watching a bit but I don't know anybody so I'm no fun for you to talk to.

ETA: thats a lie-I know the triple jumper with the red hair...I just cant remember his name at the minute.

ETA2: Phillips Idowu :D and he seems to have done well.

He jumped a PB. :eek:

You can cheer on the Irish ginger in the 800m on now if you like. ;)

But there's a british guy :confused:

Ok apparently Im good a picking winners! Sorry.... ;)

[allezfred]

But there's a british guy :confused:

But he doesn't need any cheering as he was practically guaranteed to go through. :lol:

Gingers need love too. :drama:

Well I didn't know that- never heard of him.

Hey, I am supporting the red heads!

[allezfred]

Gold for Idowu! Viva les redheads! ;)

Gold for Romain Barras in the decathlon :cheer2: although the TV director needs to get a clue. :rolleyes:

Just the ladiezzz 100m and javelin to go this evening.

ETA: Phileeeeps is currently being tortured interviewed by Nelson Montfort. :scream:

Ivan "The Drunk" Ukhov (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZq-6PL8L6A) gets silver in the high jump. :40beers:
Ah yes, Drunk Ukhov. I forget, did he get a punishment of any kind?

Decathlon 1500m rocks! :cheer: It's :respec: to see the athletes use the last bits of strength left in their bodies after two days of hard work. Did that sentence come out right? :lol:

It's a bit sad that there are so many empty seats at the stadium.
