FLOODLIT SOCCER MEANS BIGGER CROWDS

But I Am Against League Games Under Arc Lamps

Says DON REVIE

Some managers want to put the blackout on floodlit League games. me on their side. Particularly if their players are not used to playing under lights!

But Now don't think I am an old fashioned Type-strictly against progress. let's look at the facts. Many teams have floodlights, and Sheffield Wednesday had only two clubs turn them down when they asked if they would allow the second half of their League games to be played under lights.

England's cricketers shortly set sail for South Africa to defend their title of unofficial champions of the world. How they fare is a matter of deep speculation. Just as intriguing and important is not what they do but how they do it.

When England beat Australia in 1953 she did so by going on the defensive, wearing the opposition down. For the true lover of the game for it took just a little edge off the victory.
