I met a Hull FC Supporter today outside the Supermarket and we discussed the trials and tribulations on our Beloved team. After 10 min I said I really have to go and get back to the Olympics and he said o no not for me - BMX Biking , Long Distance Swimming no. What a misory.

How do we all feel - how great has it been.

'when my life is over, the thing which will have given me greatest pride is that I was first to plunge into the sea, swimming freely underwater without any connection to the terrestrial world' Yves Le Prieur, the real inventor of the aqualung:

What about the dressage !!!!

I cannot wait for the 'legacy' after the games when all the 's start up riding schools( with all the tethered horse around Hull) in East Park and Pearson Park to encourage 'ordinary' kids into the sport.

These Olympics have been brilliant, I think the Jubilee and the Torch Relay really got the country "up for it" and the atheletes and volunteers and spectators have been swept along on a wave of almost euphoria, a few people on message boards that don't quite understand the sacrifice and comittment required to become an Olympian in ANY sport, let alone to medal, and let alone again for that medal to be gold will not detract from that, they just show themselves up for being narrow minded.

I've watched just about every sport, from double trap shooting, sailing, dressage, show jumping, archery, basketball to athletics, rowing and cycling, the list is endless. Each and every day I have been proud to be British, and more recently as we've climed the medal table in our own right, a Yorkshireman.

I was sceptical, and I am proud to admit I was totally wrong.

you called one of the most difficult equestrian disciplines "like the ministry of silly walks", you have no concept of what it takes to get a horse to do those things, I would bet £20 you can't even ride a basic nag, let alone make it trot or gallop.

if some poster on a message-board wrote "I got bored at the rugby, it's just a bunch of big thick blokes throwing an egg shaped ball around" what would you say?

anyone who reaches the pinnacle of their sport deserves respect, I bet you love darts, easier to throw an arrow than to get a 3/4 of a ton animal to "dance" at your command.

The Olympic Games have been fantastic. This afternoon alone I've watched dressage, BMX cycling and women's boxing. I've watched nothing but sport since the games began.

The British success has certainly given the country a feel good factor it's needed after the economic gloom of the last four years or so.

Hopefully the likes of Wiggins, Ennis, Trott, Brownlee, Adams etc etc will inspire young people as true role models rather than the overpaid, foulmouthed primadonnas in the Premiership or contestants in The X Factor and Big Brother.

I assume that's directed at me, I'm happy for genuine and deserved criticism of the event, there have been some errors, but on the whole it has been magnificent.

I`m a rugby league fan in england. ive had to listen to those jibes all my life. never spat my dummy out though. people like what they like.

Before this turns into me looking like an anti-olympics moron

i watch pretty much as much as i could the first week (off work) and really got into it, cheered every medal with as much gusto as when hull win. i even watced the equestrian with the cross country a favorite.

The cycling for we was the highlight. unfortunately everything since has been a bit tedious and i have stopped watching. i apologise and will as ukba if i can be deported with mr chase
