OLYMPIC STADIUM IN LONDON
It beggars belief that the new Olympic Stadium in London was not designed to allow seating to be moved hydraulically to cover the athletics track. This is not rocket science. Surely, the powers-that-be had worked out that the only athletics event that could fill the stadium would be the athletics event within the Games themselves.
Attendance at recent World Athletics Championships, have, in the main been disappointing. Surely, too, it must have been understood that football, and occasionally rugby, would be the only sports likely to fill the stadium on a regular basis.
This was also a golden opportunity to consider a ground sharing option by two clubs, which seems to have been missed.
