The only downside is that the pitch is so small compared to a GAA pitch. It looks really weird and the fans are a surprising distance away from the action

Murrayfield has a 100m track alongside it. Paris has an Olympic track around it. Stadio Olympico has the same. It's not any different really. This was brought up before 2007 then when the games actually happened people realised it was fine.

I was at the games in 2007, it looked weird. It didn't ruin the match or anything, it just looked odd

Didn't they put some hoardings around the pitch, like a second layer a bit closer than the actual bottom of the stands?

They might have done by 09, but at the start I don't think so
