There I was thinking how well Spain has been doing recently in sport - even tho' their fans seemed a little 'intense'. Still, they hadn't won the Davis Cup before so we really can't complain. Let's be a bit sporting about all this
... then I read this !
"Spain's Paralympic basketball team have been ordered to return their gold medals after nearly all of their players were found to have no disability.
The Spanish Paralympic Committee said the medals would be handed back after an inquiry found that 10 of the 12-strong squad suffered no handicap ".
One or two probably would have been sufficient but TEN ! Suddenly their crowd 'support' takes on a different spin. The end justifies the means. NOT GOOD.
