Only in Britain! We haven't even had the Opening Ceremony but we have still managed the biggest cock up in Olympic history with the South Korean flag being shown on the big screen for a North Korean fixture. As mix ups go, that is a special one!
Well done to the Commies for storming off and refusing to return for an hour! Coe must be wishing we hadn't won the bid as each day goes by, with cock ups mounting on cock ups. How, exactly, can the organisers get something that basic and fundamental wrong?
Incredible! The ultimate and in Olympic record time cock-up!
ReplyDeleteTrue Sav, but that Greek tweet wasn't too clever either was it?
ReplyDeleteDon't be surprised . It is a country run by tossers of the highest order . There will be more mistakes without doubt !
ReplyDeleteNo, but one feels a little sorry for her. She tried to make a joke and she threw 4 years of preparing down the drain! Although she did apologise. Yes, I guess it is really stupid. I am little surprised the Greek Olympic Committee were so harsh on her. But I guess they had no option.
ReplyDeleteWe should have kept this "in house"...expecting the sweaties to carry out a task as difficult as this was always going to end in disaster.
ReplyDeleteThe twat who runs North Korea treats the rest of the world with contempt.
ReplyDeleteWhy shouldn't we return the compliment?
I have heard on the news today that the Greek athlete that was banned from the Olympics did not even write the tweet. She just found it in facebook and forwarded it to some friends! That is rather stupid but still, I think that the punishment is very harsh.
ReplyDeleteNot nearly as bad as your cock up yesterday,the photo of a blood soaked Bahraini posted to wind up Leeds fans was an incredible cock up. You lost your last ounce of credibility there hf.remember what happened to two of their lads 10 years ago in turkey.
ReplyDeleteIdiots - it's not a cock-up. It's a political dig! Geez have you twits no imagination?
ReplyDelete21:26 obviously they have no idea how things run in the diplomatic circles, pretty obvious to me too
ReplyDeleteOh come on, you dont think this was a cock up do you?
ReplyDeleteJust a little dig at the north.
