Football: Lynam secures time concession
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Des Lynam yesterday won his fight with the BBC to allow Match of the Day to kick off earlier on a Saturday night.
The flagship show's presenter had been unhappy with the 10.50pm Saturday start time, which he said was "in the land of the nodding-off". The BBC has announced that the show will gradually move to an earlier time slot, with a 10.30pm start by the end of the season.
