Now rugby isnt one of my specialist subjects but.....you see this in football a lot when a player makes a foul and the referee just gives a free kick...The commontator says....if he hadnt been booked earlier he would have got a yellow card there....


Surely a bookable foul is the same no matter what point of the game its commited in or regardless of the player already being on a card..?


As for sport being shown on terestrial tv......i sometimes wonder who has the say how the licence payers money is spent...?


Just taking the BBC into consideration ..... the live sport has all but disappered off these channels with racing being one of the sufferers...


I believe ALL Britains teams in sports like Football, Rugby and Cricket (mainly England) should have all their games live on BBC......


Skys main source of income comes from their sports channels and thats why they throw millions at sport and most of their other channels just show the same programme 5 times a week .


Take Setanta for example......£9.99 per month and some good sports channels with of course Racing UK......They go pop mainly because they cant get the numbers of subscribers due to Sky charging so much that people just cant afford another tenner here and there every month....and then Racing Uk says dont worry we will still be on air but will be charging £20 per month.....the same as we did in 2004.....


Dont they realise were in a recession and also nowdays you can watch all the races live on the net for as little as a £1 bet.....


The BBC are too involved with making programmes where the public have to phone in and vote or pay too much to people like Jonathan Ross and that other waste of money Graham Norton..


Get rid of the overpaid nobodys and let the public have more of a say in what the BBC buy with our money......
