    The BBC isn’t meant to chase ratings, it’s meant to support the public interest. Consider things like opera which gets sod all interest in the mainstream and the BBC lavishes it with attention and money.

    This is really disappointing Steve.

    Spurs??? That's a bit presumptuous is it not, they've not even made it into the Europa League stage yet. They could be out of Europe by the end of next week! (As a scotsman) all the more reason to cheer on Hearts on Thursday night (however unlikely them winning is) I guess.

    Move the show to ten seemed like the best suggestion to me! Sad news anyway.

    Edited to ask if theres no chance you could do the cancelled shows as podcast only Buncey??

    There were times when I would have Carl Froch on or Haye or Audley and nobody would notice and then I would do an interview with Millwall's manager and they would be jumping up and down with glee!
    Madness.

    Adios.

    It's a good show, some great people working on it - the American version has been on air 10 years! That show was the first of our second season after a three month gap - I slip one boxing tale in each week. Glad that you liked it.

    Adios.
