Just because it’s not important to you doesn’t mean it’s not important to others, not all change is good

Good - have you told SKC, BBC, ITV etc.?

Well I don't need to, because I'm not bothered either way.
You should though...

Even a quick look, shows that SKY still use MOTM, from a recent game...

The phrase has been sold at auction, while a court battle looms over the trademark of wartime slogan "Keep Calm And Carry On".
