A quite easy fix is to convert all greyhound tracks/stadiums into running tracks.

The best ideas are always the simplest

@Spidey

assume the 4 yearly event junkies will be happy to increase their tax contribution to fund the missing hole in the economy that would appear if horse and greyhound racing were removed

Yes.

Plough up every golf course and put in a proper sporting centre

Fair play to Rob. The abuse he took here for the last 2 weeks from lads scratching their nuts in their sofas is fascinating to watch.

Absolutely unrale

Who is the Ulster wan with the scratchy voice on the RTE commentary here?

Think Darragh Maloney introduced her as Hannah Craig.

Jacqui with Marty Morrissey levels of cringe.

I was also ating pizza and drinking coke if it helps

Ive an issue with the golf event. A regular 72 hole tournament is shit, nothing new. Either have it in team match play or 4 balls or something or strictly amateurs. Both would make it incredibly interesting.

They cant scrap it if they stick with the current format

Greg Allen tells us he associates Gala’s Freed From Desire with the 2012 Ryder Cup. "Europe’s on fire, USA is terrified. Rory McIlroy on lead vocals. "

Thanks Greg. You’re telling porkies. Nobody was singing it in 2012.

Daniel Wiffin is ill and couldn’t carry the flag.

He also said he was gasping for pints at the end of that race so maybe he’s still in the pub?

Grand daughter of Ulster Vanguard founder and cunt William Craig

This closing ceremony is a Croke Park steward’s wet dream. All the ushering, directing, human cordons etc.

Tory cunt Seb Coe there.

I’d agree with all that

There’s no reason in a temperate northern European city like Paris that the marathon couldn’t have started at 5pm today and ended in the stadium. This was always the tradition and it’s a huge loss to the final day of an Olympics because it removes the focal point grand finale that all sporting events require. Instead the sport just sort of peters out in a decentralised fashion.

Tory cunt Seb Coe there.

Next IOC president almost certainly.

You wouldn’t want an Owen Hart type situation here.
