[backstage] Live football score data

2011-06-20 Thread Richard Lockwood
Morning all,

I suspect the answer to this is no, but is there a BBC feed of live
football score data - ie the data that provides the live scores on a
Saturday and Sunday?  I've had a look around but can't find one - am I
just being dim, or is this something that's bought in from a third
party and hence not available for reuse?

Cheers,

Rich.

AFAIK, that's exactly the case (applies to most sports stuff, not just 
football).

Thought that was probably the case, but the being dim option is
always a definite possibility!

Hi Richard,

The BBC buys the data from PA and we use their feeds to populate the BBC Sport 
Online results pages. I think we may use another data source as well. So yes, 
there are rights around what we can make available to the public.
