The two should have scared nicely in the sprints and would have been team that on paper looked the fastest in Europe. It may be remembered that Britain won second place in the sprint rely in the last Olympic Games.
Another factor to spoil Britain's choices has been the entry of the Soviet Union who are sending a full team. The Russians, with luck, could cop the team However, championship, but they would hardly start favourites against Sweden. Yorkshire faltered in the

CAN POMPEY WIN
THE THIRD IN A
YEAR ROW?
By ARCHIE QUICK
Can Portsmouth win the First Division Soccer Championship three times in succession and create a hal trick record in the game's history? That is one of the big queries of the coming season. In these days of club equality the odds are heavily against such an achievement and all that Manager Bob Jackson will say on the subject is: "We shall try very hard to do it.
And you know how hard my boys try every one of the 90 minutes they play a match. Remember though that we won only on goal average last season and there was little difference between 114, Manchester United, Liverpool, Blackpool, Wolves or Arsenal-to name but Pix."
