Its a decent personal achievment.
But I cannot stand the right on british media ramming this event down our throats like its some sort of great spectacle and that these are all elite athletes.
I’ll be sure to light a candle for you in your time of suffering.
Would you prefer it if an elite athlete shoved something else down your throat?
They are elite athletes. As they said on the Last Leg yesterday, this isn’t “everyone gets a medal”. Smyth came within a whisper of qualifying for the ordinary Olympics and trains with Tyson Gay. Can you run 100m in 10.68 seconds?
Really? Convicted drug cheat Tyson Gay? That doesn’t look good…
“Its a decent personal achievment.”
It’s no ‘3 international caps’, eh?
Been a while since you posted as jonotti. Feel like mixing it up?
Have you not for a Donald trump convention to attend?
You cant lecture anyone on ethical standards now Barbara

It might be an achievement if you learned how to spell.
Stop trolling.
Smyth was the first Paralympian to compete at a European championships. He qualified for the semi-finals of the 100 metres and was one place out from qualifying for the final.
Dude has achieved more sporting success than you ever will.
This guy is a proper elite level athlete and I respect him a lot. If it was a 100m race between us both he’d take it no question despite by pace.
Rare to see you eating your hat Jonotti.
Chapeau!
Good, you should respect him and his achievements. Your initial comment paid him no such respect and was clearly designed to belittle his athletic abilities.
He’d also wipe the floor with you in a 200m race too, despite your pace.
James Vincent McMorrow?
Fair play in fairness
In fairness, fair, fairness play.
Is he clean?
no. he leaves dirty plates on the sideboard I hear
Trains with Tyson Gay ……… don’t let the flag blindfold you.
