Usain Bolt Denies Commonwealth Games Slur
The six-time Olympic champion denies as 'nonsense' reports he called Glasgow's Commonwealth Games 'a bit ****'.
Jamaican sprint superstar Usain Bolt has denied making negative comments about the Commonwealth Games.

Bolt was quoted in The Times as calling the event 'a bit s***' and saying he was 'not really' having fun in Scotland.

Denying the claim, Bolt tweeted: 'I'm waking up to this nonsense ... journalist please don't create lies to make headlines.'

Manager Ricky Simms waded in to the row, telling BBC Sport the remarks attributed to his client were 'utter rubbish'.

'The atmosphere in and around the stadiums has been absolutely fantastic and I have absolutely no idea where these quotes have come from,' he said.
Jamaica sprint teammate Jason Livermore seemed to confuse matters further when, after being asked if Bolt was enjoying Glasgow, said: 'I hope so, better than me.'

Asked what he meant, Livermore responded: 'It's been lovely so far, the people in Scotland are very welcoming, I can't complain. Nice atmosphere, nice crowd, I'm enjoying myself.'

Asked how he was coping with the food in the village, Liverm.
