That's a shame

 

[Equi]

So no gold for gb today. Rooting for the Irish now!

 

[Spotherisk]

Omg!

 

[Equi]

Holy crap that was unexpected !!

 

[ihatework]

King Edward OMG

 

[PolarSkye]

What on earth just happened? Is he OK? I wonder if he's ill?

 

[Maxine67]

Oooooh

 

[SaddlePsych'D]

I thought about posting 'the commentator is going to be heartbroken if this goes wrong' as he was bigging the rider up so much. Not thinking it would go that wrong!

I shouted 'whaaahhht', accidentally launched my phone across the room and my heart monitor app beeped at me

 

[Rowreach]

A lot of unhappy horses there. What on earth is the necessity to do this.

 

[Equi]

It really is a tough course

 

[PolarSkye]

Lovely clear . . . phew.

 

[Equi]

Okay we’ve at least got 3 clears lol

 

[Equi]

Who needs stirrups lol

 

[Kadastorm]

Martin Fuchs literally did all but two fences with no stirrup. I would have been off at the triple for sure

How he jumped that triple bar with one stirrup!!!!

 

[SaddlePsych'D]

Gah is he going to say “yep” after every water again all day.

Or blame the colour Red for everything? I know I should turn over to BBC but it's actually a bit funny.

 

[neddy man]

Come on the Irish.

 

[SaddlePsych'D]

King Edward went one way and his rider went through other.

 

[Equi]

Aw it’s all gone tits.

 

[Kadastorm]

Noooooo! That is not like Legacy

 

[Equi]

Oh darn it! No luck for the Irish today either.

 

[Equi]

Last rider. I can’t see him get clear the mares too whizzy

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Managed to get Fuchs riding with one stirrup! Just shows the talent of these riders. Didn't see Scott's round, what happened?

 

[Bellaboo18]

So a clear gets you a medal. A very (perhaps too) hard course.
Look forward to catching up properly later, stupid work.

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Sad for the Irish too

Yip. Jump off will decide what place.

In some ways better than 4 clears knowing that one of you will miss out

 

[Bellaboo18]

Yeah completely agree. It seems fair that over a hard course, clears are being rewarded.

 

[Equi]

Rooting for no one now cause it will skud them
