Your statement above is awful and disrespectful to the people of Smethwick.
I think you should start engaging your brain before posting and if there are moderators on this sight they should do something about it.

I never thought that there would be that much demand in watching some schools kids dancing around.

Since I have tried for 100 meters but only one ticket at a time would appear for sale but we need 2 and now there is a queue to get in to buy tickets.

I live in the city centre and there is a buzz growing and it is great to see supporters of other country already here.

The Train workers are a disgrace though for going on strike during the games. It's hardly ever that we get an event like this and these t urds decide to do now instead of a week later.

Not a fan of these games and athletics generally though (apart from the 100 meters final) and was bored senseless when went to the Manchester Commonwealth games a few years.

I hope your enjoy your day at the games Sharon.

Hope you get sorted Blood! Just like the girls Euros - great for kids and families! My one negative is roads blocked off when it impacts on emergency assistance for the elderly and volunteers who are in short supply due to self funding huge petrol costs!
