For anyone who may still harbor concern over Olympic security, just remember that you are eight times more likely to die at the hands of the police than terrorists

I see that 38 Degrees are scaring the Corporate sponsors one-by-one. First McDonalds, then Coca Cola ... changing thier minds and not offshoring the profits to avoid tax from their monopoly sales at the Olympics.
Amazing what a bit of organisation and publicity can do.

If I remember right, the current management on the SJP contract were TUPE'd over when NUFC went for a contractor rather than doing it in house.
The come with a decent reputation and I don't know of any complaints steward wise, I also understand the same people will be running the contract next season under their own company.

Indeed.
Massive traffic chaos (two-hour delays on some major roads), confusion over the Olympic lanes, trains that can't stop at the Stratford station because it's too hot, arrests for vandalism by custard, graffiti artists who haven't done anything illegal for years arrested and bailed over to keep them from doing things they were unlikely to do, businesses unable to open or operate ...
And the Games haven't even started.
