Will The 2012 Olympics Be A Sporting Disaster For The UK?

So far the 2011 World Athletics Championship, the European 3 Day Event Championship and a number of the  pre-Olympic 'practice events' seems to show that the 2012 Olympic Games, that are costing the UK an arm and a leg to put on and are likely to turn London into one huge car park, could well be a sporting disaster.

Strikes me that pressure to produce results in the Olympic year is already taking its toll on the UK competitors, both physically and mentaly.

Why did we bid for this? Is it too late to give it to France?
