Auntie normally shows any old nonsense it gets its hands on though, it has the rights to this and is actively ignoring it. It even shows like school football and stuff like that

BBC doesn't have any available staff to cover the European Games - it is sending over 1,000 staff to cover Glastonbury instead - they'd rather be messing around in a muddy field than presenting from an empty stadium about athletes that most people in UK couldn't pick out in a line-up :lol:

They could at least put World Feed on their website though.

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

Do the European Games suffer from the fact that so far they've been hosted by nations such as Azerbaijan, Belarus and Poland? Meaning eastern ones. Would things be different say if instead we had them in cities like Nice, Oslo or Dublin? Meaning western. 

I think the combined European Championships in Glasgow and Munich basically prove this point. They felt bigger to me than the European Games.

Possibly, but if there were 20 000 Poles in the stands, the picture would be completely different.

However, they also can’t get sports to remain on the program. Plus, they’ve almost already reached critical mass in terms of athletes with around a dozen sports. The whole event still has a bit of a confused feel as well.

    • Insane, they rammed the Korean and he was disqualified? Really?
    • comfortably beat and are qualified to the World Cup after many (too many) years   
    • c'mon! KOR dq in the men's relay is really a farce, a disgrace for the sport...and ITA have nothing to do with that  
    • The only ones complaining about the short track refs are Italians, imo. Not even on this forum, but in general, from what I've been seeing on live chats and other social media sites. That says a lot to be honest. I suspect it's partially due to them not performing to the high standard they're expected to perform at especially at the Olympics. The refs make a lot of mistakes for everyone, there's no bias against or towards anyone    Plus, Italy have won 6 medals already.... the most you've won at a Worlds since 2016.
    • For me they gave Canada the gold in the relay in exchange for a 1000-meter dsq gold for Dandjinou, that's how I see it. It was a battle between Kor and Can on 2 of this case. It's hard to say why that last dsq for Kor was in relay? Of course, Italy win bronze thanks for that, but that's not really important. It would have been better if the referees had just stayed out of the results and left it as it was decided for fight on the ice.

    • the quata for europe or australia is from the primer 12, where the top 20 teams will participate, sadly  is the 21th team so the only slight chance for us in my opinion is if: we get top 2 at the european championship (not including  hopefully if they get the quata), then somehow win the final qualification tournament against i assume  and one of    the chances for us are slim, i think about 4 other team sports  have a better chance in in my opinion(and the most team sports we ever had was one, and it was the last two time after a long time )
