Again the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔpage is adorned with yet more images of footballers. You might be forgiven for thinking it was a football website.
And what is more neither the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔpage, News or even the Sports pages have any mention of the magnificent Katarina Johnson Thompson's true sporting achievement (yes little people, hurry off and look it up).
Well it's sad and true but it's what I've come to expect - poor, poor and thrice poor! -

The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ is obsessed by football, they ram it down our throats 24/7. Very little else gets a look in.

Point is, that you had to drill down before getting to those pages.

A slight move of the goalposts there, Gollyponda. (Sorry for yet another football reference, but you know what us little people are like...) -

But, even if it were, it is a problem? As I said, there WAS stuff on the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ home page. There WAS stuff on the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Sport main page, and there WAS stuff on the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Sport - Athletics page, precisely where you'd expect it, even though you said there was nothing on ANY of these pages, and asked us to look it up:

Oh, and just in case you missed it, today's front page. Yes there is football, but you will see:

Utter rubbish - you obviously don't watch the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ much merely moan about it down the "Dog n Duck" -

Wrong! I do watch the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ and every national and local news broadcast shows football, the schedules are disrupted by football, we get football focus, final score, we get MOTD Saturday and Sunday.
if they do show any other sporting event it is defaced by the football results scrolling across the screen.
And I don't frequent the dog and duck wherever that is -

The schedules are not disrupted, CM, they are scheduled if you look at the listings.
I know you don't like sports (you always moan how disruptive it is) but I'd rather see something like live sports on TV rather than endless antiques, property, nature, reality, celebrity, quiz and drama programmes.

Wrong again!
I don't dislike sports I can spend hours watching sport, before the days of PVR. I have been known to get up at silly o'clock to watch sport.
I do dislike football, and it dominance to the detriment of other more enjoyable sports. -

Aside from all the smart bottom comments which seem to erupt whenever anyone makes a comment about football - the fact is, and it is an unassailable fact; that football as portrayed by the modern version of the game is no longer a sport. It is a profession. It is populated by people with a predisposition to having their mouths wide open with faces in awful grimace mode. These people are not nice. They kick balls. They spit. They bite. They kick each other. They swear. They are not nice people. Why does a sizeable part of the population think they are to be applauded?
They go out on a field (often muddy), kick a ball around for 90 minutes, come in, have a wash (we hope) and get paid more in a day than many people earn in a lifetime. Obscene. If I had my way I would have all footballs punctured and all footballers made to wear pink frilly knickers. Oh sorry, they already do.
