Funny really, the more TV sport has been moved to subscription & advert funded channels, the less I watch, and the less I feel it is worth watching.
Grandstand, as I'll remember it, with things like motorcycle scrambling & amateur athletics, was about the sportsmanship, the taking part, not just winning at all costs.
So while I'll be sad to see it go, I feel I am also seeing the demise of an era where 'well played' was, at least, as satisfying as getting a boot sponsorship, if not more so ...
