    Sorry to announce this, but cyprussyd just posted it on General Chat:

    BBC606 statement
    Back in January it was announced that BBC Online's budget would be cut by 25 per cent.

    At the time we announced that the impact of this budget cut on the BBC Sport website would be the closure of four services within the BBC Sport website - namely the 606 website, the Fun and Games section, the Sports News video bulletin and the Academy section, as well as a turning down of the volume in certain sports where our current levels of coverage could not be sustained.

    Tomorrow (Tuesday 31 May) the latest implementation of that announcement will happen as the 606 website closes during the morning. The Fun and Games section has already closed, and the other changes will follow soon.

    The reasons for the closure of 606 were explained in full in January in a blog by the Head of BBC Sport Interactive, Ben Gallop and tomorrow's closure is merely the implementation of that decision which was taken at the start of 2011.

    Gawd there are some miserable gits in the world - hell bent on stopping people have innocent fun. Wonder why the large police presence when they appear to have done nothing to stop the locals anyway?

    Just watched the cricket highlights. How many would SL have got if we'd had 4 bowlers available? Test sides playing away might consider playing 8 batsmen in future.

    It says tomorrow so shouldn't be down...

    BB have you been breaking the rules? The mods might just start banning everyone to make their night easier...

    I am on there OK...but need an early night. Off to the south coast in the morning to spend a few days with little Miss W_Y and bring back one car load of her stuff in the Zil, only a couple more after that..:emoticon-0116-evilg.

    Oh well, one plus side of this afternoon is another away trip to Reading - a lot quicker than to Swansea and the locals are a much more welcoming...:)
