Just to let everyone know that I am joining the exodus from this platform given the recent antics of the guy who owns this place. As with others, I’ll be on Threads!

@elgoldave @BBC @BBCSportScot @BBCScotlandNews @BBCScotland You clearly missed the BBC Alba coverage then?

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@SenseiBear44 Could be worse, I remember a couple of years ago when the BBC used Nick Bright as a commentator on The Hundred. He didn’t have a clue what was going on!

I must be going mad, I actually agree with Zia here.

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Kemi Badenoch just told the BBC that all councillors do is “look at parking and sort out bins”.

Incredibly ignorant and insulting.

Councils spend over £130 billion a year.

They make vital decisions about social care for the most vulnerable including our elderly and children.

Keep this in mind next time you are voting in local elections.

@WelsbyElton Have to say I preferred the Results Service to Final Score back in the day. I loved Bob Colston’s delivery when reading the scores.

@ptragedan Sorry but the men’s match yesterday was a cracking game.

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@SenseiBear44 What’s more concerning is that nobody appears to have got the rights for the South Africa series as yet.

@theminihaha @ronmanagernottm @MikeReadUK @smileymileyuk Would that not be then ultimate insult to his victims, pretending he’s not there? Bad enough he was doing it in plain sight at the time!

@JamesKelly They provided live Gaelic coverage for those who prefer it every night of the games on BBC Alba.

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@msm_monitor BBC has 2 channels specifically for Scottish viewers in Alba and Scotland. They even show lower league Scottish football and Shinty on these channels. The games were shown live on Alba, catering for those viewers who prefer Gaelic commentary.

@Davo_Mack Amazing how people moan when the BBC don’t have tv sports rights and moan when they do!

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@bottomley50 It was, BBC Alba free to air, S4C free to air and C5 highlights

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@DaibhidhP65 Commonwealth Games were televised by the BBC

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@gallowayscot BBC covered the games throughout.

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@RexKwonDo_ They didn’t, they broadcast the games all the way through

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@dvarets @IainRWhite BBC Alba is available on Iplayer

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@CllrIanMcLennan They broadcast the games throughout on BBC Alba and 5 live

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@gazberto Bit difficult to show any live coverage when they don’t have the rights. BBC Alba showed the coverage in Gaelic.

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@gilo747 @msm_monitor It was on BBC Alba all the way through

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@msm_monitor The games were on the BBC throughout.

[JIMMYTHEBANTAM @JIMMYTHEBANTAM]

@frank_kerr @BBCNews Except they were on S4C and BBC Alba, both available to the whole UK on iPlayer
