I guess it’s the typical trope…the old days were the best.

The Olympics just like football used to be about ordinary people who were dedicated or enjoyed sport, now as with everything else it’s all about the money. It’s devalued and uninteresting despite how the athletes agents and media try to whip up a TeamGB frenzy.

In recent Olympics, people were more excited and engaged by the true amateurs of hockey and curling than they were about the professional TeamGB.

Nowadays, there would be no place in the Olympics for Eddie the Eagle or the Jamaican bobsled team, in football, no Frank Worthington or Vinnie Jones, in rugby, no Billy Beaumont or J.J. Williams.

And that’s just sad
