CLUB OR INTERNATIONAL
J
INTERESTS
THE MORE IMPORTANT?
BY ARCHIE QUICK
The question whether Club interests or International interests should have major importance finds contrasting answers from Portsmouth and Newcastle United. The Lord Mayor of Portsmouth, Alderman John Privett, who is also Vice-Chairman of the Football Club, told me that they had an offer to tour the Argentine in May. For six matches they were guaranteed £12,000 net and £500 per head first class travelling expenses, but they said the Board of Directors would almost certainly turn it down because of the possible International calis on some of their players.
Dickinson, Froggati, Flewin, Butler, Harris were all England possibles and Scoular might be wanted for Scotland, said the Alderman, and as far as England Canada. was concerned there were trips to be runde to Lisbon, Brussels, Rio and Despite the temptation of a pleasant holiday and an assured profit, England had to come first.
On the other hand Scotland will probably want Krennan of Newcastle and England take Jackie Milburn, but United will almost certainly tour Switzerland in May just the same. Ta Directar Stanley Seymour I put the question : "Are you in favour of the selected 26 Englund players for Rio being gathered together the whole of March, April and May see that team understanding may be fostered." The answer was "No" Mr Seymour says the Cluh puts the League and club supporters first.
