British Championships 24-25th August

The Irish had a similar situation with only the second day of their champs being broadcast on terrestial tv, so Athletics Ireland provided 6 hours ( !) of commentated coverage on their facebook page of day1. This is giving me odd flashbacks of ceefax ! British athletics seem to go out of their way for you to dislike them...

I don’t get why they haven’t sorted something with Vinco - must be because the BBC have some sort of rights

I think the women’s final will be (not in full results order, because haven’t seen enough of Philip or Henry, but not sure why they’d come not to be in some sort of shape):

1. DAS
2. Neita
3. Lansiquot
4. Williams
5. Awuah
6. Henry
7. Philip
8. Miller

Ah, screw it

Women's 100m Final (from semi start lists)

Line Up
1. Asha Phillip
2. Kimberley Baptiste
3. Jodie Williams
4. Dina Asher Smith
5. Imani Lansiquot
6. Daryl Neita
7. Rachel Miller
8. Kristal Awuah

Result
1. Dina Asher Smith - 10.99
2. Imani Lansiquot - 11.14
3. Daryl Neita - 11.23
4. Jodie Williams - 11.29
5. Kristal Awuah - 11.33
6. Kimberley Baptiste - 11.37
7. Asha Phillip - 11.44
8. Rachel Miller - 11.47

Interested to know why you dislike Miller? I think she has a great story. Think Neita will get 2nd if she is in they same form as Euro Teams.
