You call him a dunce yet forget that it is in fact NOT an english football show but one shown nationwide which is SUPPOSED to be about all the teams participating in the World Cup.
TBR, do not take this the wrong way, as I am a Jock (living in Yorkshire, so the worst of both worlds).
BBC transmits to the whole of the UK (and further, but for the sake of this discussion let's just talk/type about the UK).
Population figures
NI = 1.7m
Wales = 2.9m
Scotland = 5m
England = 50m

So the likelyhood of any watching is that they are 10 times more likely to be a Sassenach than a Jock - market forces.

If you lived in Glasgow, how would you like it if your programmes had to be filtered/changed for the population of Invercaldy ?

Let's all just live together in peace, man
