What about this 200 Million pound Olympic Stadium there gonna build to, who's gonna pay for that?
Why not use the fookin dome! We've already been raped by tax to pay for it, not doin it again!

I am not some Sun reading, 'believe anything that I am told' fool either by the way a large part of my Business studies degree was Tourism and Leisure management.
Yes I am only looking at what could happen if it all goes right and I do have my rose tinted glasses on when looking back at some previous events. BUT whats wrong with a little hope, enthusiasm and positivity????
I'm all for moaning if we make a pigs ear of it, but until then, I'm all smiles
