Anyone watching the Boat Race?

[TressiliansStone]

Channel 4 this year, 171st Men’s race🚣, 80th Women’s race🚣.

Women going first at 14:21.📣

Yes Blondie!! 🩵

Isis vs Goldie: "both crews have stopped competing and are just trying to stay afloat"

For some reason I always supported Cambridge as a child (not one person in my family had been to Uni, we watched because it was on the telly!) and this informed my University choice. Go Light Blues ☺️

Always been Cambridge supporter, not sure why. I do know a former winner of the Cambridge crew.

Men's race is going to be absolutely wild if this weather keeps up.

I’ve been to see this live a few times at a riverside pub in Putney (got a male friend who’s mad keen on this) and it’s absolutely mental! Lots of drink is had. 🤣

Goldie taken it tidily. Poor Isis struggling in.

Oxford men's boat won the toss and have chosen Surrey.

Go Light Blues!! It’s a lovely day here in Fulham, if a mite choppy… 🩵🩵🩵

good start 🩵

Ooh, Oxford have had two warnings

Oxford taking risks and being warned.

OMG they're properly overlapping!

Quite close…!

Was delighted for the Oxford women’s boat! After so many defeats!

Come on the dark blues!!!

Hanging in, just about ...

Always watched it. Cambridge for me. Thought it was tomorrow and almost missed it.

The commentators were building up Cambridge's chances, but I think anything could happen in this one...

Yes. V aggressive coxing, esp Oxford. But needed. (I shared a set with a cox. She was a maniac and had a voice you could hear from a mile away. But exactly what you need…)

My favourite ex boyfriend was a Cambridge graduate so have to go with them!

I think Cambridge have got this but from what the commentators are saying Oxford have done well to be this close.

First time on channel four, so new presenters? But not sure if any Cambridge or Oxford connection.

Yes, dirty conditions with strong winds and the tide coming up against them.

Cambridge getting warnings. Not sure why as there's such a gap?

I was a cox at college (Oxford). Key requirements were being small, and being able to shout!!
