The lovely lady who masquerades as my carer bought me two tickets to the Olympic quarter final at old Trafford whic could be Spain Brazil according to her reckoning ... You can't fault the thought and effort ... Anyway if any of you have kids dads nephews etc it's not a bad deal as kids go half price so you can say you took them to an Olympic event at a reasonable cost anday be see some future stars ... Not British ones of course :)

As nice as the gesture is, I personally would politely decline. Being in Coventry, we're being told about the sanctions being put on people attending. It's akin to an airport security check in the weeks after 9/11. They're basically saying "you can go, just don't expect to enjoy yourself".
