They blindfold them as well to make sure they not cheating, all except the keeper but man its amazing.

Theres a bell in the ball and a bloke behind the opposing goal.

Completely different isnt it. But yes I have to say the ones I have seen it has been absolutely incredible to watch, amazing. TBH I cant put it in to words really and it makes me think that no matter how big my troubles may seem etc I really should be happy and thankful.

Mucho respecto goes to all those guys and gals :)

Can't add any more to what has already been said, just awesome to watch. so why the hell is it relagated to channel 4 and beyond. the paralympics should have the same tv coverage as the able bodied olympics, to me they are more inspiring and show the determination to not only come to terms with their disability but also succeed in their chosen sport. Absolutely amazing.

I think it would have been better coverage on BBC not sure what it is with Chanel 4 it just don't have the same wow factor.
But they are amazing.

my kids love watching and have been inspired by both Olympic's only is my son wants a road bike instead of a heli now.[ATTACH=CONFIG]47652[/ATTACH]
