The Name Of The Game

Jeff Zycinski | 22:14 UK time, Thursday, 18 May 2006

I met the team behind our Ninety Minutes programme this afternoon and we got to talking about the name of the programme.

The title, of course, refers to the duration of a football match, but, in the midweek slot, the actual programme runs for less than an hour.

At today's meeting, Jim Spence and Annie McGuire made a strong case for a change of name. Annie, in partcular, felt the name was confusing and a source of irritation for the audience.

At the start of the season last year. I had suggested we change the name to On The Game. I was laughed out of the building for that one.

So, here's a challenge for diary readers; you come up with some suggestions or else tell us why we should retain the existing name.

I promise a wonderful ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Scotland goody bag for the best suggestion. You can either leave a comment here on e-mail through the link at the top of the page.
