Name[edit]

"Sovetskiy Sport" seems to be more popular variant, than other ones. It is also used on the official website of the newspaper - a description of the website says: SOVETSKIY SPORT: Daily sport newspaper. "Sovetsky Sport" seem to be more popular on English-language websites. But could some reliable sources for "Soviet Sports" variant be mentioned? Cmapm 18:44, 28 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If it's used more often, you can change it. This article may also be confused with Sports in the Soviet Union. The reason I moved it in the first place is because I don't like using Latin alphabet for writing Russian.--Fox Mccloud 22:23, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
