Alex Scott was all smiles while hosting her first edition of Football Focus since the BBCÂ announced the show would be coming to an end, amid criticism over plummeting viewing figures during her tenure.
Scott made only a brief nod to the broadcaster’s decision to axe the show in her introduction, vowing to leave the long-running institution on a high.
‘Hello and welcome to Football Focus. In the words of Declan Rice: it’s not done, it’s not done yet,’ the former England international said.
‘We’ve got five games left to decide the Premier League title and five shows left in the proud history of Football Focus.
‘We’re going to be finishing our 52nd season strong beginning today with a “tough tackling” partnership of Ashley Williams and Farah Williams.’
