Another day and another Athletics chief has had their say about the Olympic Stadium and what its legacy should be after the games. Lamine Diack believes that England’s sporting reputation will be ‘dead’ if Tottenham are allowed to rip up the running track, given the assurances the British Olympic bid made when they were originally canvassing to host the Olympics back in 2005.
In the papers this morning there have been a mixed bag of stories that includes Balotelli heading to the US for treatment; Steve Bruce slams Houllier, while Steven Pienaar reveals why he snubbed Chelsea.
