Ibroxholm 2,260 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Not greatly interested but will probably watch some of the events on TV when it begins tomorrow.As for the opening ceremony, I generally give these a body swerve anyway - some arty farty show (usually only of interest to the locals), followed by a long procession of athletes taking photos of the crowd, taking photos of them, and then a few boring speeches. Throw in this one being played out at Snake Mountain with 'performances' from Rod Stewart and Susan Boyle - definitely one to miss. Corry is on the other side anyway.Just caught the lunchtime news highlighting that half a billion pounds has been spent on the CG. Incredible amount, is this really the best use of taxpayers money to improve Glasgow and particularly its east end? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jelavic191 4,295 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Looking forward to the track cycling & swimming. They always seem to be the best events at these things. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skol 401 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Looking forward to this to be honest. I don't really understand the bitterness. Yes Celtic Park is hosting the opener but nobody gives a shit about opening ceremonies and that's all they're getting. Plus the Queen will be there amidst a big celebration of all things Royal which will drive them a bit mad. Looking forward to the athletics, various cycling events and the triathlon. Good buzz about the city, great weather, loads of tourists and hopefully a badly needed regeneration of some of our poorest areas.

Robespierre 589 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Given most people on here who ridicule me regarding political leanings are essentially "Ultra Unionists", I'm surprised by the lack of enthusiasm towards an event that epitomizes imperialistic unionism.On a happier note however, I've got tickets to the 100m final motherfuckers!

Robespierre 589 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I don't associate politics with sport in any way however, so I'll be heading along to Hampden with relative peace of mind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.E.C. 18,633 Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 The opening ceremony is nowhere near as long as the Olympics.Mind you, the one for London 2012 was amazing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
