Great Court Run
editI like to nitpick because I am an old fart. There is no way that Lord Burghley could have run 367 metres in 43 seconds. That extrapolates to 46.8 seconds for 400 metres, slightly faster maybe given that it's only 367 metres. No one in the world ran under 47 seconds until Ben Eastman in 1932. Leaving that aside, it seems a little ridiculous that Burghley could have run as fast as Coe and Cram did 60 years later. Finally, Burghley ran the third leg of the British 4x400 team that ran 3:11 at the 1932 Olympics, and probably split mid-to-low 47 considering that the first runner was likely slower than the average of 47.75. I doubt he had a running start and also that he ran faster at the Great Court than he did at the Olympics.
- Anthony "the trumper"
I think I can resolve this. The 367 m is the perimeter of the interior quadrangle at Trinity. Clearly there could be no requirement to run exactly along the wall and touch each corner -- that would require a dead stop and a turn at each corner. Impossible. The plan view of Trinity on Google maps shows a stone path all around the interior of the quad. Estimating it at 3 m wide, and if the requirement is simply to stay on the path and stay off the grass, the distance is reduced by 24 metres. Add a bit for bends, but suddenly it's quite feasible for a Coe, a Cram or even a Cecil.Cross Reference 00:34, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm not sure about this 'video' evidence. Film never has the exact timing of a run if recorded. For example there are videos of sub 10 second 100m runs being done in well over 10 seconds on film. I thought it was agreed that taping a race can't supply an accurate time? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.193.181.167 (talk) 15:29, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
Privy Councillor
editI noticed someone had placed the Right Honourable before his name, but Lord Coe isn't a Privy Councillor.
As a Baron he is entitled to use the Rt. Hon. as a part of the formal use of his title, but not casually in this way.
- "Casually"? Who said anything about "casually"? Proteus (Talk) 09:36, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
What I meant was, "casually" like Privy Council appointment is used before the name. Jason_Hughes
- But this isn't a "casual" usage, it's his formal name and title at the beginning of an encyclopaedia article. Proteus (Talk) 09:41, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
Regardless of the use of the word casual, which clearly balks you so, Lord Coe is not a member of the Privy Council. All profiles of Lord Coe, including the Privy Council Office itself does not list him as a Privy Councillor, and they are a definitive list of Privy Council members, including the Prime Minister of Canada, for example. Lord Coe does not feature as a Privy Councillor, on any list. --Jason Hughes 09:56, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
Hughes makes a valid point, he is quite right in pointing out that His Lordship is not a member of Her Majesty's Most Honourable Privy Council. User:Toryboy
No one said he was. Proteus (Talk) 20:43, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
How amazingly clever to continue inserting the Right Honourable into the article then. You're marvellously clever aren't you? --Jason Hughes 21:58, 22 August 2005 (UTC)
- What on Earth is that supposed to mean? Proteus (Talk) 15:45, 23 August 2005 (UTC)
By the way, I happen to have a copy of Debrett's Correct Form sitting on my desk. I'm not sure what buying another copy would accomplish. Proteus (Talk) 20:53, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
- I think we all agree that Coe is not a Privy Councillor, so there is no sense belabouring this point. There is also no sense in using inflamatory language ("You're marvellously clever aren't you?" "stupid, pompous little man," "self-important man"), when we're all working in good faith. As I understand it, Lord Coe is "Right Honourable" by virtue of being a baron. If this is wrong, Jason Hughes, would you please provide some evidence, rather than engaging in a revert war. I am no expert on this matter and would like to know if I am in error. HistoryBA 17:58, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
I really shouldn't have to do this, since no one else has provided any evidence that "The Right Honourable" is improper before Lord Coe's name, but I'm getting really sick of ignorant people assuming they know everything:
- Legal Documents
- Peers and peeresses (in their own right, and wives and widows of peers) are accorded their full formal styles with their forenames but with no surname:
- The Most Noble Charles John, Duke of Blank
- The Most Noble Anne Frances, Duchess of Blank
- The Most Honourable Charles John, Marquess (of) Blank
- The Most Honourable Anne Frances, Marchioness (of) Blank
- The Right Honourable Charles John, Earl (of), Viscount or Baron Blank
- The Right Honourable Anne Frances, Countess (of) Blank, Viscountess or Baroness Blank
- Peers by courtesy and their wives are not accorded the prefix 'Most Honourable' or 'Right Honourable' (unless they are members of the Privy Council).
From Debrett's Correct Form. Now please leave this article alone and stop forcing me to waste my time. Proteus (Talk) 00:29, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
Having read your discussion entry, Proteus, I have to conceed that you are infact correct in your use of "The Right Honourable" in this and other cases. I will therefore cease in reverting your edits and hope that you can accept my appologies for taking up your time. Toryboy 14.45, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
However, Lord Coe is a life Baron and not entitled to Rt Hon.Sebmelmoth (talk) 11:06, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
Baron or Lord or commoner?
editI think the use of Baron Coe in the article should be amended to Lord Coe. Male British peers of rank baron are always referred to as Lord, not Baron (women are usually referred to a Baroness). From Burke's Peerage: Indeed to refer in the third person to any baron in the peerage ... as 'Baron Blank' rather than 'Lord Blank' is a solecism. See also the style used in the Members List of the House of Lords. Oldbus 23:30, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
- Currently, we always use "Baron" in the title of articles on Wikipedia. Sometimes I think the page title should use "Lord" (the boldened name in the opening should definitely remain as Baron) but that's not the current policy so Sebastian Coe, Baron Coe is it. However, any other references in the article should definitely be to Lord Coe, so if you see any Barons, please change them! JRawle (Talk) 15:05, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- Not always we dont, se Margaret Thatcher and Jeffrey Archer. This article should use the common term which is Sebastian Coe, the name he has been known as for far longer than his political involvement, SqueakBox 19:40, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
- I think it should be either "Seb Coe" or "Sebastian Coe"--Vintagekits 20:26, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
- Glad to see we agree on something, SqueakBox 20:29, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

He first ran against Ovett ...
editThe date of 1972 is often given on the web, but a careful study of the words suggests that all of these articles have been copied from each other. The correct date is Saturday, 24th March 1973. The event was the All-England Schools Cross-Country Finals held in Swindon, Wiltshire. As far as I know, Steve Ovett was second, whilst Seb Coe also finished in the top ten (in sixth place, I believe). I know, because I also ran on that day! By the way, Steve Cram did too. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.15.76.176 (talk) 00:06, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

editFoul Mouthed Comments About the Welsh and Scottish

Fuck 'em".[17] Was he reprimanded at all for this foul mouthed outburst? 79.75.212.205 (talk) 18:00, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Peculiar Accent - Origins?
editCoe's accent has altered greatly since being given the job for life in the House of Lords after losing his safe seat in Parliament - has he had elocution lessons, and if so, do the Conservative Party supply them? Other Tories who's accent changed suddenly were of course Mrs. Thatcher ('we are a grandmother') and Sayeeda Waarsi (who was also given an unelected job for life in the upper chamber at £300 a day + expenses)- I recall Saatchi & Saatchi being used to 'upgrade' Mrs. T's image (including advising her to lower her voice to sound more masculine),and I wondered if Mr. Coe was given the same advice? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.75.212.205 (talk) 18:06, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
KBE picture
editLord Coe is a Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire (KBE). For some unknown reason, users continue to add a picture ( ) with the caption "KBE Breast Star". The said picture does not show the Breast Star of a Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire however, but the Breast Star of a Knight Grand Cross (GBE) of the said order. If anyone wants to see what the KBE Breast Star looks like, an example can be seen here: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-4cKn-7BpzUg/T74F9RLahZI/AAAAAAAANQk/IsniN6BHCHY/s1600/IVE.jpeg KBE and GBE are different things!

Controversies ?
editThe article reads as if it is a hagiography, there are plenty of things that suggest that "Lord" Coe is a political actor interested in using Athletics to further a particular point of view in world order. These are, at this stage, almost original research pieces, but at some stage, there needs to be a controversies' sector that includes issues of how Coe relates to Russia in particular. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.51.45.141 (talk) 14:41, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
- I agree. I noticed his 2008 controversial statements about Scotland, Welsh and Northern Irish fan was deleted (I also note that the original source is no longer up - http://www.thelondonpaper.com/cs/Satellite/london/news/article/1157155479676?packedargs=suffix%3DArticleController) the and Russian doping scandal words were written in a way that made it unclear if he was accused of anything. There is a lack of neutrality in this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CT55555 (talk • contribs) 23:05, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

Please amend my comment to explain why he is not a "Sir"
edit"Sir" at the top wouldn't be consistent with other knights' pages, but "Sir" for the name would be. The article says he's a KBE and the article on the Oder of BE says that "K"s get a "Sir", and says that a a peer or prince doesn't use a "Sir" for a KBE "except when the names of the former are written out in their fullest forms". So, if the name beginning the first sentence is what is called "written out in their fullest form", then it should include "Sir". If that is NOT "fullest form", then it is correct as is.2600:1700:6759:B000:1C64:8308:33BC:E2D6 (talk) 06:17, 8 June 2023 (UTC)Christopher L. Simpson
