    So much for Usain looking rusty. lol.

    Also, I was incredulous when I saw Christine false starting. But she was never going to really contend for a medal anyway.

    Mo farah at 11.30am tomorrow. Men's 100 at 12.45pm.

    Don't have a lot of time for Chambers but that disqualification was a joke.

    A straight red for Ohuruogu was fair enough, but surely there should be some leeway for a slight flinch.

    Silver for Farah. He needed to have gone earlier IMO.

    Unlucky for Mo, but Jeilan must've run a crazy time in the last 400m to win. David Moorcroft reckoned Mo should've kicked later than he did. Not sure about that one.

    Gutting for Mo, but still well done on the silver! It certainly was a shock for Bolt and does seem unfair!
