yes it was abruptly truncated today ........I tolerated some of that retro in the hope of some extended feedback from the MadstadRoyalBlue Well I suppose all that can be said is that it can only get better as the year runs on - it surely can't be any worse.
What the hell are you guys playing at, finishing coverage early in favour of some dreadful sports review of the year?!!
There was so much to discuss about the Portsmouth game today but you couldn't even be bothered to hang around for any interviews with players and/or management.
If I want to hear old commentary on horse racing (the only connection to local sport being that horses from all over the place turn up at Ascot to race) I'll listen to another station thanks.
Pull that stunt again and I'll have to put up with 107FM in future.

BBC Radio Berkshire There are one or two points I would like to make though...

BBC Radio Berkshire First off, we appreciate your feedback so apologies if your enjoyment of the Pompey game was spoiled.
There are one or two points I would like to make though...
1. The Sports Review of the Year is a popular annual programme, and is enjoyed by people who may not tune in for every Reading game or the Friday night show. It also caters for other sports that don't often get a look-in.
2. Many of you are doing other things over the Christmas and New Year period and may not stay tuned to the football coverage beyond the final whistle, or dip in and out of it. We will look at the scheduling.
3. On the specific subject of horse racing, the sport dominates life, and the landscape, in large parts of West Berkshire so a look back on the local racing highlights of the year is totally justified. It is more than just Royal Ascot. Many of you will go racing at Newbury, Windsor or Ascot during the year.
4. On a typical Saturday, Reading FC still dominates our sports show from 2pm till 5.45pm, but we do have a duty to talk about and reflect upon other sports in between 1pm and 2pm, and 5.45pm and 6pm. We very rarely play music during the Reading FC portion, if at all.
5. This is obviously a Reading FC forum so understandably you want wall-to-wall Reading coverage, but if you asked our audience, many of them want a wider variety of sports on the air. Safe to say, 2pm till 5.45pm will always be protected as a 95% Reading FC slot.
Hope this helps. Normal service will resume this Saturday with the FA Cup match.
Andy
