Unprofessional - no question

Furthermore, some of us quite enjoy not knowing the scores until the final whistle blows when we finally get to watch the game back in the hotel or at home... I remember the good old days of going out to play a game on a Saturday afternoon and avoiding the pub, or at least avoiding a pub with a teleprinter and keeping the radio off in the carso that we wouldn`t know the scores until we saw them on Match of the Day in the evening. The guys calling the scores on 121.5 are, in my humble opinion even worse than the pricks that would run to the payphone ear the carpark to call their wives to get the scores and shout t hem out to everybody, fully in the knowledge that 50% of the people listening were trying not to know.
