Plenty on the agenda again in the world of Olympic & Paralympic sport. In the week the beautiful game showed itself to be more beautiful than ever as English clubs feasted at the top table of European competition, we broke our golden rule and started by talking about footy. Well, kind of.... Following the exploits of Liverpool & Tottenham in the Champions League, we talked about the greatest comebacks in sport. We recalled names like Tiger Woods, Niki Lauda, Greg Le Mond & Muhammad Ali, whilst Michael spoke about two great comebacks he had witnessed - one in hockey and one in netball and John got all nostalgic about Kriss Akabusi. UK Sport announced who their new chief executive will be this week. Sally Munday is tasked with taking the agency who allocate funds to Olympic and Paralympic sports onto a new level having had great success in her previous role at England & GB Hockey. It was a big week for UK Sport who also announced that the UK will host the 2020 World Skateboarding at the Copper Box in London. In athletics, there was GB & NI success at the World Relay Championships in Japan, plus Simon Yates has started cycling's Giro d'Italia well and Jack Laugher won Gold in Kazan at Diving's World Series, but how will this translate to medals in Tokyo in 2020 at the Olympics. We look at how the medal table is predicted to look after the 17 days of competition and it's not great news at this stage for Team GB. Plus, ice hockey, tennis, golf and taekwondo get a mention along with archery which is holding their big weekend later in May. It aims to get more people involved in the sport. It's one of the most inclusive pursuits available with no barriers to age, gender or disability and many Olympic and Paralympic archers started their journey at events like this.
