I suppose they had no choice in the end.
The amount of City fans (an others) who must have contacted them to complain about the rag sycophant and his obsession with all things red.
They could no longer justify calling him their Chief Football Writer.
So in the spirit of balance and impartiality (as the BBC professor to be) when will they be announcing their MCFC Reporter and their LFC reporter and their AFC Reporter.
After all these three clubs are far more relevant in recent history of the Premier League and to have a dedicated reporter for a team that finished 15th last season screams of favoritism.
We're no longer in the 1990s when the rags were relevant. You would think that an organisation like the BBC in 2025 would focus more on current affairs. After all, we've got the History Channel for things that were of interest in the past.
I don't know...... the BBC bless them. They really do tie themselves in knots claiming to be all things to all people while flogging that dead horse for one more flurry.
