Summary
So England were pipped by India in the Commonwealth Games medal table by one gold medal, so well done India.
However, this table is a farce because it does not take into consideration all the silver and bronze medals, as England won 41 medals more than India. To achieve any medal is brilliant and many competitors gave lifetime bests in securing their medal and they should be applauded. A much fairer method in calculating the medal table would be to give three points for a gold, two for a silver and one for a bronze. By this method, England would have scored 275 points to India's 204 and give credit where it is due. We were never going to come out on top, with Australia miles ahead, but to ignore the achievements of those who gained silver and bronze medals is a disgrace.See the full content of this document
