BBC South - We won't cover BHA next season!!

[Ian Bairds Fist]

BBC South have confirmed they will not cover us next season. Viewers in West Sussex will be treated to Southampton, Bournemouth, Aldershot, Portsmouth and Oxford United coverage. This is because the majority of West Sussex are not interested in BHA, according to the BBC.

If you think this is a bad idea they would love to hear your feedback.

Call 02380 226201 and ask for Greg Clark.

No apologies if this is fixtures.

No change there then.

Beat me to it. Those exact four words.

There's your answer, that's a Southampton number. They don't give a f***.

Surely you can get on Sky up around the 980,s area ?

 

[Stumpy Tim]

My parents live in Hurstpierpoint and won't get Albion news. Utterly ridiculous

On Sky you can watch any regions feed.

BBC1 SE will be on Channel 963 from 3rd July on a Sky box

Not very helpful for those of us who don't have sky

True, I was just saying like.

Technically you don't need Sky as it is a free to air channel on satellite , a sky digibox or Freesat box will pick up the signal.

South Today can finally stop denying their Hampshire bias and throw off the shackles and spunk themselves silly over Southampton in the Premier League. Thank f*** I won't have to watch it any more and be subjected to such local news as roadworks in f***ing oxfordshire, wankers.

BBC can go f*** themselves

Useless corporate twats

 

[ferring seagull]

You do not need sky !!

I have posted this previously on another thread.

Assuming that you are looking at the digital situation, retune your television and it should bring up BBC 1 on channel 1 ( BBC South ) but, if you look it also brings up BBC 1 on channel 800 and that is BBC 1 (BBC South East )

So from channel 1 on your remote, go 'down' one channel and you should see BBC South East (Channel 800).

Hope this works for you !

But it's not just about re-tuning your telly if you want to get news about the Albion. If you live in West Sussex, it's about getting news about the county's football team alongside the rest of the news about the county you live in. The BBC have decided not to offer that service. Folk in places like Worthing will only be able to hear about the Albion if they tune to the same programme that will give them general news about the Medway towns, but not Worthing.

It's a disgrace.

But this is the problem. Bbc south has always covered bhafc and retuning your box, which people shouldn't need to do, is a work around to the problem.

West sussex, and indeed a part of Hampshire has many bhafc fans who watch the local news for Brighton news. This will rumble on.

Totally this.

We are Brighton from the South, not South East!

Same for mine. And for me (Burgess Hill).
