It's good for sport here, right now. For the future? What concerns me is that resources will not be used well. There was an opportunity to build what will now be the new Wembley Stadium on the site of the Dome, which has massive transport infrastructure already in place. Now that site is vastly underused. How will the funding really pan out over time? Will it be like Canada, having the residents of the host city paying for decades after? Most of the sports venues currently built are always struggling for cash to keep them up to standard, so where will the money for new structures upkeep come from in 2022 when it is a memory? In the meantime, I'm going to be living on the outskirts of a building site for the next seven years. I hope at the end of the Olympics, the redeveloped area has a real future use. Or will it all be housing ten years later? Malcolm
