Apart from the old jokes about it being the same two sides in the final every year, I've been watching this today (albeit with the sound down while the football was on the radio) Slick coverage, lot's of pre and post race analysis and good montage and profile pieces as well, so as a broadcast it exceptional. Disturbingly I saw something that said the BBC have a budget of £5million to spend on this event......balance that with the £2million??? that they grudgingly throw at our game then WTF? ps I totally exclude BBC Sportsound radio coverage from any complaint....their coverage is excellent

I saw the end of the men's race, no contest. Who gets the £5m ?

I think it's the cost of the OB's etc and the cash payments to the university boat clubs for access and interviews etc

Maybe we should spice it up a bit and add a few naval mines, might make it more interesting.

Wasn't it last year that some Aussie swam between the boats to get the race stopped
