Reporting Of The League Of Wales

EDM number 1773 in 2001-02, proposed by Lembit Opik on 17/10/2002.

That this House notes Wales's impressive 2-1 victory over Italy, and England's hard fought 2-2 draw with Macedonia during their most recent European Championship qualifying games; and further notes that despite Welsh football's superior achievements, half time and full time scores from the League of Wales games were not reported on the BBC's football scores service; and calls for the BBC either to abandon coverage of English football scores, or to give equal coverage and recognition to the League of Wales by reporting their scores on Saturday afternoon.

This motion has been signed by a total of 12 MPs.
