This seems like the very opposite of public service broadcasting to me, and I hope the outcry forces a reconsideration.
One point that seems important to me is that people at football matches often can't access the scores on their phones, as thousands inside the same stadium are trying to do the same thing. So often your knowledge of other results in the league is limited to a glance at Sky Sports in the bar at halftime, scores flashed up on the big board, and rumours from people around you. All of which means that the classified football scores can provide a useful role in actually being sure what really, definitively happened at the matches that day
