Mo Farah

Just wondering if anyone else watched the documentary about Mo Farah this evening. A truly remarkable story about how he was trafficked into the UK as a child, held captive in domestic servitude, forced to use a different name - his real name is Hussein Abdi Kahin - and how he eventually forged a life f...

Well, after a couple of weeks action, we have a medal now as the GB mens curling team get to the final of the team curling event.

SkyBet are doing their £10 refunded as cash on the first race tomorr...

Vuelta Espana

Another great grand tour event , Hugh Carthy of Britain won today's stage and is 3rd with a week left. Probably wont win but on the back of Geoghegan Hart winning in Italy, britain still has some talented cyclists in the post Froome and Thomas era.

Second test starts in the middle of the night - best chance for England given it is a day/night match in cool conditions England's seamers should benefit - let's hope the batters can finally get some big runs.
