Sports Letters: Very Inter-esting

Sir: It says something about Milan's superiority over Internazionale that Mike Prince (Fan's Eye View, 28 Sept) can find nothing more interesting to begin his homage to the latter than long-distance pedantry about their correct name.

'We are not,' avows Mr Prince, 'nor have we ever been, Inter Milan . . . If there is one name we do not wish to be linked to, it is that of our rivals.'

Perhaps he could explain why, then, all Inter's official club literature refers to them as 'FC Internazionale Milano SpA', and why the club crest is an amalgam of the letters 'IMFC'.

I rest my case.

Yours in sport,
