The BBC has apologised after a message appeared on screen saying “Manchester United are rubbish”.
The insult popped up on the news ticker at the bottom of the screen during a tennis update on the 9am to 10am news broadcast.
Later in the morning, a presenter apologised to any Manchester United fans who may have been offended.
She said the mistake had occurred as someone was learning how to operate the ticker and was “writing random things not in earnest”.
