The controversial ticketing system for the 2012 London Olympic Games will be under scrutiny once again on Friday when some 2.3 million tickets go on sale from 6:00am local time (0500 GMT). Three million tickets were sold in the first round which ran from March 15 to April 26, but of the 1.9 million people who applied, just 700,000 were successful.
