Is there any reason why the NC correspondent (Dan Johnson) on this story is reporting from Radio Sheffield?

Wouldn't be the first time a reporter was told to stop mid report!

She's reporting live again now from Stamford Bridge on the News Channel - I don't think she's in exactly the same place though. Sounds a bit closer to the road.

Doesn't look good for Chelsea, but also there is an arrogance amongst journalists that they have a right to be there. Sometimes they do, sometime they don't - sounds like they were six inches over the line.
That clips also highlights the pointlessness of some live crosses - the only real indication she's at Stamford Bridge to the general viewer there is the aston indicating as such.

The Long and Short of it....................? I'll get my coat.
Agree, it doesn't look good for Chelsea at all. They need all the positive PR they can get at the moment, not this type of nonsense.
Kudos to Sophie Long for handling it efficiently, mind you.

The guy was just doing his job, and Sophie Long just doing hers. Assuming she was stood on private land
then he had every right to sling her off, and the statement 'we're live on the news' I'm afraid is irrelevant.
Anyway, isn't the whole point of these OBs to be there to capture a live reaction from the establishment or organisation being reported upon, so in this case, finally, success !!
However, as Brekkie points out, had it not been for the caption, I'd have said she was outside my local John Lewis

Though a courtesy towards somebody who may not have realised he was live on TV.

Good on the security guy, too much are TV crews strolling around as if they own the world. A camera is not a permit to do anything or go anywhere, something which journalists don't seem to understand (not so much this particular case, they were only slightly over the line. But I am making a point.)

Yes possibly, though perhaps it might have been better to have checked beforehand whether he was comfortable with them broadcasting from there. Of course that may have happened with someone else, and there was a subsequent shift change.
We simply don't know!

To true. Channel 4 journalists seem the worst for doing this, thinking they can go wherever they want and do what they want because they are 'telling a story'.
