I'm not sure if they were always responsible for writing the regional content that fulled through to the national BBC Sport site, but that's how it was back then.

The world is obsessed with celebrities of varying talent levels. News websites are driven by how many clicks they get. I know that's broadly true, but as they don't have adverts on their website, so I don't think that's the case for the BBC. Might be wrong though.
