A protester ran on the course about 3K from the finish and turned a 45 second lead into about 15 seconds, he was totally put off for a while after leading on his own for about 50 mins.

The Cretin ran on and basically attacked him, pushed him into the crowd and totally @ucke@ up his race. But great credit to De Silva he carried on and got a medal that he rightly deserved. But without the stupid antics of the IDIOT, he could have got gold........... we will never know :(

:( You`re right in that we`ll never know. I hope they take this fella`s passport away so he can`t travel to major events and ruin them for `normal` people.

My opinion on whether or not the outcome was affected would be that it wasn`t. De Silva was losing his lead at the time. I think he knew that by his celebrations at the finish. Even I was sort of hoping our guy wouldn`t catch him up :/ I`d blush if I could.

I`ll get me coat...

The main problem is that at the end of the day the race was ruined >:(
I watched the whole race and although De Silva was gradually losing his lead, he could have got past his "wall" and pulled out again. We will never know now. I would like the Greeks to set an example with the Cretin and somehow lock him up for a long time for assault :D
Where were the police though? The Cretin could have had a knife :o

It was the same guy who ran on at Silverstone.

From Yahoo sport
A former Irish priest has pushed Brazil`s Vanderlei de Lima off the road as he led the Olympic marathon, almost certainly costing him victory in the last event of the 16-day Games.
The man was arrested and taken to a police station on Sunday. A government spokesman said he was a former Irish priest, Cornelius Horan, who interrupted the British Formula One Grand Prix last year by running on to the Silverstone track.
"The man says he is Irish, he is also drunk. He had been to a taverna earlier," a police source told Reuters.
On Sunday, Horan was wearing a kilt and beret and on a white shirt he had pinned the words "The Grand Prix Priest. Israel Fulfilment of Prophecy Says The Bible. The Second Coming is Near." He had a Star of David attached to his kilt.
"Greece has a long tradition with Saint Paul and Alexander the Great," the priest told police officers after his arrest. "Christ deserves a greater honour. I am not a Jew but I love them."

NUTTER!!!!

That was a disgrace today, I hope the Greek cops gave him a well deserved shoeing. The security looked slow again.
