Paralympic Watch: Jama misses out on bronze

The 2012 Paralympic Games are drawing to a close and Arsenal.com are tracking the progress of several Gooners competing in London.

Over the course of last season, we ran a series of features in the Official Matchday Programme with some Arsenal-supporting Paralympic hopefuls.

The final day sees one Gooner in action as triple gold medalist David Weir attempts to add to his 5,000m, 1,500m and 800m victories in the T54 wheelchair marathon.
