In a meeting somewhere, some place...
White elephant anyone?
Built in the wrong place, if they wanted a football team to make it work after the show then why put it on top of Leyton Orient? who incidently dont want it.
Spurs just wanted to save some cash, West Ham wanted to make a few quid on the sale of Upton Park and British athletics cant afford to run the place....


...so what shall we do with it i ask?
Wrong location ...

Its in an olympic Park - where exactly should it have been put?

Am still looking forward to it - G2K's experiences notwithstanding ...

How is it built in the wrong place ? It's the London Olympics, where else were going to build the frigging thing, Norwich ?
:D I was thinking that - perhaps we should hold the London Olympics in Birmingham!

Because of course you could have held the sailing regatta on the Thames...

I am against the whole Olympic thing nowadays, just a bean feast for the fecking Suits paid for by the rate payers, Coe is a c*nt of the first order, Jowell couldn't organise a **** up in a brewery and the mess on the site is a national disgrace, but WTF ?

The really good news is the w*nkers selling the corporate hospitality are way behind the curve although I wouldn't mind betting they will be weighed out from the public purse like the bankers, privatised profits, socialised losses.
I will go to The Olympics and hopefully have a great time. Love your comment about Coe cos I cannot stand him.

Too much money is spent on getting our athletes. After London 2012 we should make a drastic cutback.
