TheScarf Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 The hard on from the BBC over shite like athletics and cycling has been nauseating. With the tennis relegated to the red button. A far superior and well respected sport than the formers I mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILLIEA Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 You could I suppose argue that the BBC are fulfilling their remit as a public service broadcaster by giving coverage to minority under represented sports? Now! If only they would give coverage of under represented sport north of the border. Scottish football outwith the cheeks for example! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The OP Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Athletics is the Olympics, in fairness. Although excessive focus has been on events like women's heptathlon, say compared to a world record breaking mens' 400m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 1 hour ago, The OP said: Athletics is the Olympics, in fairness. Although excessive focus has been on events like women's heptathlon, say compared to a world record breaking mens' 400m. I would disagree. You'll find most folk want to see the 100 metres and very little else from the track and field events. Certainly the people I've discussed Rio with have felt that.
