Southampton station Radio Hampshire has closed down...as of today.
Staff were given the news today as well - not much notice, I'm sure you will agree.
The station broadcast from St. Mary's football stadium and was previously known as The Saint (as in the name given to Southampton FC).
Not a great couple of weeks for the stadium as SFC were relegated from the Championship a couple of weeks ago.
According to the Daily Echo newspaper in the city, the phones at the studios ring out and it appears that everyone is already gone.
Just wondering, if you are a fan of the local footie team, who will broadcast commentary from the games next season?
Best of luck to the folks left behind and here's hoping you will be able to stay in radio, if that is your wish.
The Website page today doesn't hint at closure, highlighting a competition that closes tomorrow.
