@c4paralympics

Post by doorstepped »

the twitter account of Channel fours paralympic coverage is whinging and moaning that RM will not be making a stamp of every gold medal winner from the games.

RM are however still going to paint a box gold in the homes towns as per the olympics.

they are bleating and bleating that it is wrong to not do a stamp for all winners.

I have made my thoughts known to them.

last thing we need is for C4 to make RM look worse than it already is ( can't get a lot worse mind )

Channel 4 must realise, just as Royal Mail do, that many people will buy stamps for gold Olympic winners but few would buy stamps for gold Paralympic winners, and it's all about making a profit. :Very Happy Channel 4 don't serious expect as many people to be watching their coverage of the Paralympics as have been watching the Olympics on other channels. :crazy:
