Quite how its supposed to fill its 'sport' remit is beyond me as the sports show is about to be axed and they have cut their sports staff from 6 to 2. Not sure either how they are supposed to target young people with such a news heavy breakfast show. Still i'd expect nothing less then complete confustion from the dim-witted management there. I can say this as I'm working there and witness incompetence first hand! it makes sense to move it under the radio one family.

And the side navigation has given four buttons to its music output, rather than last time's News/Sport/Music (if I remember correctly)... I just wonder why it was kept under his control even if 5 Live got itself a controller.
