Sir, As the nation rightly prepares to welcome home each and every one of our brave hearted Olympians with equal honour, having competed with grit and determination in the Atlanta Centennial Games, it is dismaying to find continuing lead headlines on the inept internal bickering of our team officials.
Given the ongoing, incredulous behaviour of both the BLE and IOC officials who purport to represent our competitors and country in Atlanta, maybe some hapless sponsor (or should I say, lucky sponsor, since the real winners in this squabble are Reebok and Asics) would consider providing a separate kit form for our officials in the Sydney 2000 Games, marbles, slingshots and short pants in any colour or style. Yours, etc. Celbridge, Co Kildare.
