TOP MAN IN TOP JOB

Good news for British sport is the election of Sir Craig Reedie to the IOC's executive board. I would go further and state that it's also good news for sport worldwide. Craig is one of the most pleasant and capable people in the complex world of sports administration. He played a key role in bringing the Commonwealth Games to Manchester in 2002, an event which paved the way for GB's successful Olympic bid for 2012. His elevation to the top table within the Olympic movement risks giving the IOC a good name.
