As I haven't posted for a while I thought I'd have a rant, and tennis and athletics incurs my wrath today.
Thay are the biggest fucking waste of money in British Sport; we are fucking awful at both of them so why don't we just put the vast amounts of money pumped into them towrds sports we are supposedly good at like football rugby and cricket.
Absolutely spot on. Every time I hear about how Swindon lacks facilities for things like Tennis and athlectics pisses me off too. Prime example being the stupid sorry excuse for an athlectics track at The County Ground which would be swallowed up by any new stadium development and you get some tosser that writes to the adver to object probably because they used it once last year or something. As for The Delta Centre its designed entirely for the upper class ponces that think they are above all us workers. Went there once in a moment of 'Henmania' and realised that Delta don't want people like me there i.e. some beer bellied unshaven goof who thinks he's the next Henman.
Now I read in the adver that the Council are seriously considering building an olyimpic sizes swimming pool in the town. What the fuck for?
How many locals really are training for the olyimpics in Swindon right now? 2 maybe 3? Thats really benficial to the community isn't it Swindon Council.
Common sence would see SBC build a new sports facility in Swindon to replace Oasis and Link Centres built around a state of the art football stadium (funded by the club that part) that would serve the whole of the town to some degree. Thats 250,000 nearly!
