There is not enough Country Music played in England as it is and I know there are lots of fans. We need more of this genre of music not less!!

I feel that the BBC Norfolk have not thought through the knock on effects to musicians clubs roadies and country music fans young and old the BBC has taken away my free licence and now taking away the pleasure of my Saturday morning and Sunday afternoon thanks for ruining my simple pleasure.

Jack Parker (Dereham Norfolk, 2020-07-27)

I'm signing because I am devastated and disgusted that BBC should cut off a programme that has brought such pleasure to so many country fans for 38 years. They are supposed to cater for everyone. There is very little country music on radio and this was one programme we vould count on just for us.

Ursula Boyes (Great Yarmouth, 2020-07-27)

Its the BBC penny pinching again to the cost of the listeners.

I have followed Country Music for decades & it is very popular, particularly with the elderly who are less mobile so don't stop it.

Howie Watling (Burnham on Crouch, 2020-07-27)

The choice of Radio music shows gets less and particularly Country Music is squeezed out. It is obvious from the thousands of supporters for the artists during lockdown there is a high demand for this genre and should be respected

Doreen Ashpole (Ely, 2020-07-27)

#221

There are a lot of people in norfolk that enjoy country music. This program has been on radio norfolk for 38yrs. We pay our licence so why can we not have a say as to what we can listen to

Marion Barmby (Norwich, 2020-07-27)

Sue Lummis (Mellis, 2020-07-27)

#226

I’m signing because I am a licence payer and the amount of country music the BBC have programmed is not enough as it is, yet the minority who listen to classical have their own station!

In this area there are many people who are interested in Country music
This programme is a comfort to many people who otherwise would be lonely. As for the licensing fee to listen to and watch repeats time after time

Rodeo Norfolk has been a fantastic show for many years, not only has it supported American acts, it has given our home grown talent an opportunity to be heard. It is a shame BBC Norfolk have taken the decision to ruin our Saturdays.

I love country music and this decision is very short sighted for the listeners in Norfolk.

Chris Morris (Markyate St. Albans, 2020-07-29)

#345

I have been playing drums in country bands for over 40 years around the area and Rodeo Norfolk is the life line for the industry. I have had many wonderful memories working with Roy and Keith over the years and think it would be the end of country music communication in the area as we know it.

Colin Burrage (Great Yarmouth, 2020-07-29)

#347

You can't just take an axe to shows people love. So short sighted, but what do you care you will still keep working and ignoring your audience

I have been told by friends, that this is a fantastic show!

Alan Plommer (Ramsgate, 2020-07-29)

#363

I really enjoy this show and would miss it very much . Radio Norfolk is the only radio that I have heard country music on it would be very sad to see it go . We are all not the same we all like different music so there needs to be a show like this for those that like this music ,also a Saturday morning people go shopping who have been working all week but us who like this music would go later .

Gillian Davies (Kings Lynn, 2020-07-29)

#365

I love my country music on a saturday morning as my father before me it was the highlight of the week it must not be taken away

Margaret Sparham (Hempnall, 2020-07-30)

#368

Terry olly from Pentney Country Club sorry this is happening it will such a huge loss to all the music venus plus all of the regular listeners who enjoyed this programme immensley. What a good job Keith did.

Terry Gray (Swaffham, 2020-07-30)

#369

I've been listening to this show for many years and it is not only popular but a very useful resource for knowing what is on.

Jacky Cutler (Attleborough, 2020-07-30)

#370

I'm signing because I've been listening to Rodeo Norfolk for nearly a long as it has been aired, previously with my late dad every Saturday
This is the only station that gives us the heads up for local gigs etc and promotes country music which gets nowhere near enough airtime or promotion in the UK.
Without Rodeo Norfolk and the likes I may aswell tune into online radio stations from the USA

darren Riley (Wisbech, 2020-07-30)

#372

I love the programme have listened to it for years. Please reinstate it

Valerie Bailey (Kings Lynn, 2020-07-30)

#373

I believe it would be a tragic loss to the area if the country output was reduced in such a way.

Geoff Betsworth (Silloth, 2020-07-30)

#374

Got to keep good music going with plenty of information about Norfolk Events

Pauline Wilkes (Norfolk, 2020-07-30)

#375

My wife and I listen to both Rodeo Norfolk and the Big Country Show weekly. They both play a good variety of country music but more importantly keep every one updated with the local country music scene and events. It would be great loss of a public information service.

Antony Wilkes (Norwich, 2020-07-30)

We need Country music on Radio Norfolk

Rodeo Norfolk is such a fantastic programme, Keith Greentree is such a knowledgeable presenter, it is such a pleasure to listen to.

June Hammond (Hunstanton, 2020-07-31)

#385

I'm retired, semi-housebound and this was always my radio 'treat of the week' - I'm missing it.

John Evans (Stow Bridge, 2020-07-31)

#386

We are a Norfolk Country-Gospel duo, and support Keith Greentree's petition for many, many reasons. Not only are his shows looked forward to, finding out where the gigs are, and him being a great presenter, Joe is a Country Music songwriter (aka Driftin' Duke) and was invited into the studio to have his album "Who's Driving The Train" - by Driftin' Duke & The Boxcar Co promoted, as Keith absolutely loved and wowed the album. Sadly, this isn't going to happen anytime soon it seems? Musicians are really struggling at this time, and any local radio coverage is much needed, by a presenter in their music genre..
Fingers crossed for Keith, and many thanks to Merv & Maria for putting this forward.
Joe & Mary

Joe Mary (Norfolk, 2020-07-31)

I have been listening to Rodeo Norfolk for many years & look forward to it every Saturday. It was started by the much missed Roy Waller & I feel that it would be an insult to the memory of one of your best ever presenters to take it off air. RIP Roy.

Sue Lee (King’s Lynn, 2020-07-31)

#390

Always used to listen ever since Roy started it

Denise Bullen (King,lynn, 2020-07-31)

Country music like all other music has its place in the community. Why deprive those people who enjoy it

Susan Shreeve (Gt Yarmouth, 2020-08-01)

#398

I am signing because I wish Rodeo Norfolk to continue on Saturday morning also the Big Country Show on Sunday

Peter Yeomans (NORWICH, 2020-08-02)

#400

I’ve often listened to the programme over the years, it’s not just the elderly that enjoy it. Another example of the BBC trying to axe a popular and well loved programme.
