This from the FSA:
The BBC announced this week that they have stopped broadcasting the full classified results on BBC 5 Live as part of its Sports Report programme. Henry Winter wrote in the Times (£): "By wanting to be in touch with a youth market that mainly doesn’t listen to sports radio, BBC executives have shown themselves out of touch with the millions who still wish to listen to the classified football results." The announcing of the results has become a staple in millions of match-goers’ lives as they head home from 3pm kick-offs every Saturday. Malcolm Clarke, chair of the FSA said: “The classified football results on the radio have been one of the great traditions of British football. “Listening to the classified results has always been one of those beloved, shared routines for match-going fans. “This feels like yet another of football’s great traditions has gone and it is a deeply regrettable decision from the BBC – I hope they will think again." Despite the outcry from supporters and journos the BBC has stood by its decision - so far. Former FSA Writer of the Year
