Goals have been clearly set for some time so those who qualify to the standards we’ve set will know they’re capable of returning from Athens having achieved something – they’re not simply going to the Olympic Games as excess baggage.
This is a quote from a very Henryk Lakomy, Sports science & fitness director at British Swimming.
So they feel that Mark Foster is excess baggage ! :mad:
He could win a medal, but i guess we will never know and that is one less medal for Britain. Ah well, there is always the breaststroke. Which seems to be the only stroke that UK swimmers can do well !:mad:

Yeah unlike the British and Australians who are undoubtedly going to log on to this website and use our opinions to come to conclusions. Really Geek, are you suggesting that we shouldn't dicuss this? Maybe I am missing something. Sorry if it is a joke or something that I have missed.
Reagarding Bousquet. Man that really sucks. But if the procedure was laid out ahead of time, then I am not sure what ground he has to stand on. Too many silly rules though. Semifinal? Bousquet is a medal contender so it would be nice to have him in the event.
