MY SYMPATHIES WITH THIS ENGLISH SIDE; THE IRELAND MATCH IS A TOUGH GAME
Says DON REVIE
Eleven English footballers led by Billy Wright will troop out at Dalymount Park, Dublin, today. They will be playing to uphold the prestige of English League Football and at the same time carn themselves a place in England's World Cup side.
They have my sympathy. Whether they win, lose or draw they are on a hiding to nothing.
Yet I
Here's why. The League of Ireland side are part-time players, so naturally Morc most of the crities expect the English boys to win by a cricket score. often than not they do. But the position is that if they win, critics howl that this jaunt to Dublin should be struck off the calendar of representative games, If the English boys fail to win by a big score, then up go the cries: "Sack the lot."

Once again we invite a team of successful young sportsmen to fill the Spot of Honour at the top of the Sports Parade. Meet the men of the Hongkong Regiment who have finished the season as Champions of the Army South Water Polo League.
It would be wrong to accord them this honour without explaining that they were given # tremendous fight by their aquatic counterparts from the Hongkong Signal Regiment,
