Another bare faced lie.

Then you obviously think that the BBC, the IOC and LOCOG are all lying.

The BBC are just repeating the lie from those other fools.

Even someone as stupid as you should have
noticed those last two lying about that.

The provision is in the original bid documents, just as they were for the
Sydney Games in 2000.

But is nothing like your lie.

Complete and utter shambles in fact.

Far from it.

Complete and utter shambles in fact.

Even the press here have been impressed by the organisation of the Games,

So ****ing what ? Even just all those empty seats is a complete and utter
shambles.

and all it takes for The Sun to have a go is a hint that something *might*
have the possibility of going slightly wrong...

Corse none of them even mentioned all those empty seats, eh ?

Of course there has been the odd breakdown on the underground,

Shouldn’t have happened if the system had been designed right.

(1) The underground was never "designed" as a unit,

Irrelevant to whether it would have happened
if the particular bits had been designed right.

Like the Sydney equivalent?

http://www.abc.net.au/7.30/stories/s162615.htm

You have a short memory, don't you?

Nope, I know what happened with that. Another shambles.

(It's a link to a story about the problematic rail transport for the
Sydney Games in 2000)

Another:-

http://partners.nytimes.com/library/...oly-rails.html

Bear in mind that the Sydney system is less than a quarter of the size of
the London Underground, was carrying less than a fifth of the passenger
load and still didn't get fixed in time... After four days, we had already
passed the total passenger numbers for the Sydney Olympic and Paralympic
Games.

Hardly surprising that a few more find it easier to be in London, stupid.

(2) It is better than 99.9% reliable,

Pity other rail systems had no failures at all during their olympics.

Short memory you've got there, or weren't you alive during the Sydney
Games? They had rail and bus problem on most days.

Plenty of others didn’t.

I could, no doubt, come up with similar stories about *every* Olympics or
other major event.

No you can't with their rail system.

which is pretty good, given the average age of its parts,

The fools running that system should have considered that
and fixed what problems there were before the olympics.

Is speechless (Knowing very well that *all* public transport systems
break down in some way every single day).

Pigs arse they do in a way that needs buses on standby.

(3) There are enough buses on standby to cover any public transport
breakdowns within very tight schedules. Which is why a lot of bus and
coach drivers are being paid loadsamoney to sit round all day waiting
for a phone call...

Still a complete and utter abortion.

Described by at least one person I know who has been there as "London
Transport at its best",

More fool him.

when he walked out of the Stadium to the nearest railway station after the
event he was watching and got straight onto a train, which got him to his
destination on time eactly as expected. Just like 99.9% of the others.

That number is straight from your arse, we can tell from the smell.

The only problem that's made the headlines here was when a coach driver
from out of town got lost, and took too long to get a group of American
athletes to their accommodation. That's thirty or forty passengers out of
about three million so far with a minor problem.

Another bare faced lie.

If you don't feel proud to be British, why don't you F off somewhere else?
Miserable git.

You talking to me? I'm very proud to be British

Which is why I get ****ed off at people (like ARW) who regularly knock
the people who work behind the scenes in GB to make things like this
happen.

ARW is one of the people who regularl y knocks the people of GB and
their achievements (just re-read his posts); now he claims to be the
only person "Is there anyone other than me ..." who is supporting GB.

Adam does useful work, unlike a lot of the useless overpaid parasites we
seem to have around us these days.

Looks like you're another stupid **** who thinks that the achievement of
the last few days in the Olympics is entirely due to the individual
athletes and their achievements and nothing to do with the individual
sports organisations and their officials

If you were to think about it; these are the self same 'parasites' who
organise things so that bigger and better things happen.

However, since you're as dull witted as ARW, you fail to see that there
are some people who who have bigger vision than you and Adam, so you
discount their organisational abilities.

Adam does useful work, unlike a lot of the useless overpaid parasites

Fair enough; if I want a fence putting up (and can't be arsed to DIY it)
I'll call Adam, if I want success at Olympic sports I'll call a proper
professional.

ARW had **** all to do with any achievements done by athletes today

If there was a gold medal for making things up, you'd be right up there

as it is, nobody seems to have written what you imagine they have

and ... if you want a fence putting up, this NG is all about doing it
yourself not getting a man in, you stupid ****.

And ... I'm not sure I've ever seen a useful contribution to this NG
from you, why not bugger off somewhere else

The Aussies are not doing very well:-)



The vainglorious brit who has done **** all himself but wonders if
he's the 'only person feeling proud' is a real object of pity


Nothing positive to post then?



Do let us know how you personally helped any of the medal winning
heroes.

WTF does that have to do with anything?


I read it as ARW was claiming some isolated position in 'feeling
proud' of
'his' country. As though he'd done something special himself.
"Is there anyone else OTHER THAN ME that is proud of this country" is a
very self centred question.

But he's done **** all; so, in a very real sense, don't you think he's
worthy of pity?

Not at all, I'm pretty chuffed (proud if you will) that Andy Murray won
today and I'm not even a Scot.


Thats the beauty

of he wins he's one of us, if not, he's another useless porrigewog



Oh look, it's one of the ARW groupies!- that's always such a rewarding
role.

No - just one of the many here who are in agreement that you are a
useless of space

People in uk.diy tend to get known for their contributions to the group

Other than demonstrating that you are an unwanted spunk puddle, what
have you contributed here?

Just face it - you've outstayed your welcome , you've turned more or
less everyone against you

I'd call you a jimmy no-mates, except that a mates what your father was
wearing when he rode that pus ridden whore who begat you. They do split
easily, don't they

Just another of your pathetic little drug crazed fantasys/lies.

Only a fool wouldnt be able to grasp that a country with

3 times as many fools actually stupid enough to waste
their time on something as stupid as the olympics.

You qualify in spades.


I was wondering why India and Indonesia were doing so well in the medal
tables ...

I think despite the critics, people are telling me that the
organisation of the Olympics has been very good so far

Like hell they are on the number of empty seats alone.

Complete and utter shambles in fact.

with the result that people are happy at the venues etc.

Pity about the ones that couldnt get the tickets for those empty seats.

Of course there has been the odd breakdown on the underground,

Shouldnt have happened if the system had been designed right.

Its not as if there has been any unpredictable events.

but apparently the back up systems and staff have been informed about
them.

It would be one hell of an inditement

Rod - steer clear of big words that are beyond you

Corse

OK - steer clear of the little ones too
