Abandoned, derelict, covered in graffiti and rubbish: What is left of Athens' £9billion Olympic 'glory' - A staggering 21 out of 22 venues lie abandoned since an event lasting just three weeks was held, and the magnificent stadiums are now over-run with rubbish and weeds.But the most striking 'legacy' has been the huge sums spent - and wasted - on venues to hold sports with little following in Greece.And yet the madness does not end there: annual 'maintenance' of the empty sites has cost almost £500million since the event.
