Free fan zone returns for West Ham and Chelsea clashes

So the BBC has replied to this complaint in relation to Stone’s job title


YOUR COMPLAINT:

Inaccuracy  
What is Simon Stone's job title?
Is it "Chief football news reporter"
or Man United Reporter
It seems to change by the hour as he writes another "puff piece"
Was I lied to when I asked this previously when the answer was the latter?

The reply seems to be an answer to another compliant about Stone jollies following the rags on the post season tour, which they refused to reply to in detail previously

Thanks for contacting us about the BBC Sport website.

Simon's role is to report on Manchester United for BBC Sport. He is one of a group of senior journalists that cover specific Premier League clubs for us. And we're currently advertising more roles to further widen this pool. As you would expect, part of Simon's role is to cover key events involving Manchester United, and this is the same as our other writers following their assigned club at key times.

We can assure you, that we’re always mindful of the costs and finances behind putting together our output, while at the same time trying to provide the best possible service to our audiences.

Recently, with the season having almost drawn to a conclusion, one of the talking points in the world of football has been Manchester United's post-season tour to Asia, which stood out amongst the calendars of all other Premier League clubs. The tour had prompted much discussion and debate, with the team flying to Malaysia almost immediately after their final match of the season.

In this context, we felt it was newsworthy for our audience to feature an insight into the tour's progress. The tour wasn't without incident, and saw several widely talked about moments, including an open top bus tour before United's loss to ASEAN All Stars, where the team were booed off by a large proportion of a 70,000-plus crowd. Amad Diallo was pictured giving an obscene gesture to fans, there was speculation and tension around Alejandro Garnacho's future, and we were able to gain access to several press conferences and interviews.

With all of this in mind, we feel this brought value to audiences, but we recognise you may continue to disagree.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We’ve discussed your concerns with the team at BBC Sport, which helps inform decisions about current and future content.

If you’d like to understand how your complaint is handled at the BBC, you might find it helpful to watch the short film on the BBC Complaints website about how the BBC responds to your feedback. It explains the BBC’s process for responding to complaints, what to do if you aren’t happy with your response and how we share the feedback we receive.

Wishing you all the best,

BBC Complaints Team

I’m fully aware of how they operate.
I have a complaint with the ICO as they refuse requests by hiding behind a journalism clause in the FoI when in fact my request was not about journalism Hopefully they ICO will uphold my complaint
I don’t pay the Tv license as I don’t watch live Tv so they don’t get anything from me

Stone went on utd's post season tour to Asia. He went to report on their friendly in Sweden. Then he went on their pre season tour to the States.
The BBC didnt send any reporters or football correspondents to the club world cup in 2023
