Back to OS stadium radio ...

BBC London have reported that since the Olympics, the stadium is now covered
(as I suspected) by the national TETRA radio network, and there are coverage
black-spots inside.

The LLDC are saying they asked the Met to install extra kit to do this if they want full
coverage, and the Met are saying they have agreed in principle but are not paying the costs.

As time goes on, it will become increasingly obvious just how bent this deal is.
How journalists haven't gone after a bunch of Tory party donors getting something like this from the Tory party is beyond me.
It's a great demonstration of how piss-poor our media have become.

Indeed.
Everything the Spanners should be paying for themselves, costs the LLDC money.
So now they have less money to spend on other things, like putting in additional TETRA
base stations inside the stadium as there were during the Olympics.

When new WHL is built, the club will face a similar problem with the radio coverage.
But will pay up themselves to avoid any PR/legal sh*t storm if there was a calamity inside
and the emergency services show they could not communicate adequately.

It's like the cover up after Hillsborough or the corruption of UEFA/FIFA. Nobody wants to address the bloody obvious and do anything about it. Of course, once Boris retires from politics it'll all come out and it'll be too bloody late.

Like the Met has the resources or responsibility to do such things! That's an appalling attempt to pass the buck and it ain't gonna wash.

I've always thought he was similar to Higuain: there's very few players are more effective scorers, but he never does anything that looks good in a compilation video with an awful dubstep soundtrack like Messi, Ibrahimovic, Aguero et al

Yeah, I know what you mean. He's not that flamboyant, if that's the right word.

Barca 3-0 up. That's the end of that, then.
 
PSG are playing like a boxer that knows he's won the early rounds and is trying to see out a fight.
Not a very good idea, in my opinion.
