London 2012 - Logo Revealed

Lord Coe was forced to deny reports that the bizarre new London 2012 logo was designed by a young child, after the words, "James, Aged 4" were reportedly spotted in the bottom right-hand corner.

"We didn't expect it to be universally liked" admitted Coe, "...but over time people will appreciate the logo portrays London perfectly....overpriced, increasingly segregated and impossible to navigate."

"Moreover, following the Wembley debacle, the logo does not explicitly mention '2012' which we consider to be an unrealistic goal."

Outgoing PM Tony Blair however expressed his support. "I am confident we will host a wonderful Olympics, and show the world everything that's great about the Polish people."

It's so obscure it could also be '2013' which, based upon the Wembley debacle, is when I expect the Games to take place.

Dear God. How bad must the losing designs have been?
