A sign of the millions upon millions wasted. No jobs created and a monumental monolith built for the 100 meter run which lasts TEN seconds and could be run in a cow field.
No, sport is a hobby. we don't spend millions on knitting or bell ringing, so why subsidise kicking a lump of leather or tossing bits of metal. so what if you can run fast. that's what cars are for.and i'm not a bro, I'm English.and not a monk.
Jospar ! Come to america boi ! Land of dreams and crack cocaine ! Everything is made in America Chinese food , Mexican food and pizza ! So go back to your posh home in 'LANDON' then come to the real world Texas mother f*cker !
How is it 'millions wasted'??? Do you think the olympic park built itself? Do you not think any jobs were created in laying the running track as a small example? Do you not believe any money is generated through sponsorship, ticket sales, the thousands who come to our small island to spectate? Or how about merchandise sales, food and drink sales etc etc just not sure what angle you're coming from with your, let's face it; narrow minded view....????
@lejamielefunk no jobs were created for the indigenous populace. The legacy of projects such as this in Britain = crystal palace and the south bank, great.
Stop crying over coin.....my great granny and grandad gave me an exclusive coin every year instead of Christmas present cos in the long term they do actually sell off for more then how much they cost
Hopefully now people will get it...

hey do u wanna buy 50 pence? I'll sell it to you for ÂŁ2.99. what a scam!!
I wish this was actual pressed currency for regular use, not just a collector's item. A pretty fantastic, but costly art piece by the uk govt
@jospar: you mad bro?
