Gazza_8 233 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 There won't be any Union Jacks at the Commonwealth Games. It'll be the Stan Drews cross, St Georges Cross, The Welsh Flag and the RHoU flag represnting NI. Got to agree with you opening ceremony though, it should be held at the National Stadium, nowhere else! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrideAndPassion 0 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 If anything, we could use these games to try and get hampdump up to a decent standard .. if the tattiebowl gets any single penny of public money, it's an absolute disgrace! ... and holding the opening ceremony at such a bastion of irishness .... what a stupid gesture! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking to someone who was involved in the redevelopment of Hampden and there's plans for it to be expanded upto 70,000 in the near future. It was redeveloped at the time with the intention of expanding it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlock 0 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 I don't mind Athletics, I used to love running at school, besides it might prompt a lot of youths to stick in at school PE rather then hanging about the streets causing trouble. (NEDS) It's got to be good all round. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 I enjoy the second week of the games with the athletics but the first week with swimming doesn't do much for me. I don't mind the female swimming before they dive in though.:fish: 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
