My guess would be the latter. And it would be somewhat fitting given the attitude of those in the higher echelons of BBC Sport. In the Racing Post yesterday, Lee Mottershead hit the nail on the head saying its the powers that be within BBC Sport - and he singled out Roger Mosey and Barbara Slater - are responsible for the erosion and ultimately the termination of their racing coverage.”
According to another forum, this is exactly what is happening tomorrow (I'm sure someone can confirm this).
That is the final insult to racing fans and those that have worked on the BBC's racing coverage over the years.
