I’ve got a great idea…

Nothing against Milton Keynes, but I would’ve preferred a seat at the new stadium for the 10th June…

So what happened? Maybe the process went something like this…

  1. Demolish iconic sports and entertainment venue.
  2. Go with the cheapest estimate for a replacement.
  3. Watch the budget double waaaay before completion.
  4. Cringe as parts of the structure collapse.
  5. Issue a statement to the effect that all deadlines will be reached.
  6. Backtrack on earlier statements; issue replacement announcing a 12-month delay.
  7. Sack the workers

And they reckon the 2012 olympics will be a hit? Call me a cynic by all means…

Sounds rather similar to a number of “happenings” to do with the preparations for the football over here.
