London Wins 2012 Olympics

Congratulations to Lord Coe who has secured the 2012 Olympics for London. When asked after winning what he was going to do next he said, "Have a quiet beer, followed by 19 loud ones". Lord Coe's strategy of promoting London on the basis of it being the best candidate for getting youth involved in sport was a gamble that paid off. He said how he had visited the Olympic Stadium before the Munich Olympics and that had fuelled his dreams, and hopes that there will be British youngsters around the country training that little bit harder tonight in the knowledge that they could be competing in the London 2012 Olympics.

This is great news, and along with the Germany 2006 World Cup, gives us something else to look forward to.
