Enjoyed watching the British Trials yesterday and today - however a bit concerned by the number of empty seats at the Alexander. 1) This is what happens when you turn athletics into a glory-hunter sport and convince people that only the big names (Mo, Bolttwat etc) are worth seeing - as evidenced by this load of shite in the Grauniad:https://www.theguardian.com/sport/blog/2017/jul/02/british-athletics-needs-new-stars-fill-seats-sports-stature-tumble2) Be careful Brum. You just know that there is no shortage of people who would be glad to move it all to Manchester if it isn't properly supported.
When did Seb Coe turn into Philip Hammond?
Why's that bloke running in the womens 800, is he a pace setter?
Gatlin can fuck right off.Disastrous for the sport, very, very pleased with the reaction of the crowd.

Gatlin should've been banned for life, especially for cheating twice! If Athletics wants to clean up its act, cheats should receive an automatic lifetime ban. No two or three years to come back.
