Go home, you fkin idiot, Jackson.
Fourth place means you have spent the last four years to end up a loser.
A great performance, but still a loser. Where do the BBC get these muppets from ?

The guy wasnt expected to even make the semi's let alone the final. He qualified for the final in seventh (or was it eighth) place, then finished fourth. Doesn't sound to me like the quote was too far out.
