Paralympics.

Same gripe as the women's football, the stadium is not even a quarter full so why not have it staged at Crystal Palace and rip up the track and turn it into a proper football stadium?
Why are minority sports being forced on us?

Almost everyone who ridicules the Paralympics/whatever this one is ridicules the media, especially the left-wing broadcast media, for pretending that it is exactly equivalent to able-bodied sport.
Almost nobody ridicules the actual disabled athletes or even the events themselves. But it is what it is - sport for people who can't be good at sport.

I do not know what is wrong with some of you slagging off the disabled, I hope something as unfortunate never happens to you or yours. Shame on you.

It's not the Paralympics. It's the world para athletics championships.
I'm pretty sure you qualify stonemong.

It's got its place somewhere. Gawd knows where though. Just always seems like a bad accident waiting to happen. Not a general spectator sport. Prob just family/neighbours support on a personal basis. And the do gooders of course.
Good luck to em with it all though.

The spiritual home is Stoke Mandeville where it all started, that's the place
As far as bird football, well your guess is as good as mine, US? They seem to like it but then again they don't get the game either

The World Athletics Championships are on there from August 4 to 13 so the conversion was taking place anyway. And back again for £8m
Send them to Crystal Palace? Surely these people have suffered enough

They deserve their time in the spotlight but why do it at a 1/4 full stadium with no atmosphere?

I hear you - bird and raspberry sport has it's place and fair play to them for doing what ever it is they do but sport is, and always has been, a bloke thing, by blokes for blokes.

Looks well as an Athletic's Stadium.
We should never have moved there.

You seem to realise that this is exactly the same old moan that you posted about the Women's Euros just 5 mins before, yet still did felt you had to do it?
What is wrong with you?
At least this one doesn't have emojis though, I'll give you that.

Not everyone is lucky enough to have all of their limbs intact, so I'm guessing the use of the big stadium with a decent crowd is so that for once in their life, they can feel like a normal person and be proud.
Good luck to them, it's am athletics stadium after all.
