Merged-D-day for Glasgow 2014 bid
friday's the day Glasgow will know if thay have won the bid to host 2014 Commonwealth Games, [img]Download Failed (1)[/img]
If thay do win this bid it's only because the canadian city of halifax pulled out of the race so thay'd be default winners

Re: D-day for Glasgow 2014 bid
Why am I having vision of the scene in Trainspotting where American tourist comes into the pub and asks 'May I use your bathroom' - and all the gang follow him in there to rob him?

I don't know what you mean - I'm far too innocent to know that expression - I thought trainspotting was a film about British Rail - am I wrong?

Re: D-day for Glasgow 2014 bid
It is excellent news for Glasgow &, hopefully, a boost for sports in general across Scotland. 
Rumours that the Nigerian city spoiled their chances by asking for the Commonwealth Games Council bank account details so they could place a deposit for their proposed stadium, haven't been proved
