I can't see any mention of internet broadcasts on their web site but, if you go to http://www.radiofeeds.co.uk/ and page down, there's a link there at the top of the stuff with the pink background. Click on the yellow '24k mono' icon.

I agree with Cafu01 as well; it's guaranteed to annoy anyone standing next to you.

An older member of the forum (no offence Mike A) agreeing with Fearon.....

Whatever next, Tin Monkey will be back in no time,
God, I miss his pesimistic (sp?) view!

Well done, Mike. I am ever so grateful for that link.

I am getting a bit frustrated because they keep cutting away to other matches for updates. Is this typical?

Rodge · 20-02-2005, 11:44

Yes Michigan Red, we don't always do full match on Stanley games, and when we do we have an obligation to do updates from other games because the station is paying for them.

Apologies if it's annoying, but I don't think you missed much. I try!
Constructive criticism is welcome.
Incidentally, you can now listen online at www.2br.co.uk and click listen live!.
There will be coverage of every game til the end of the season, starting with the Halifax game on Wednesday.

You mean Tuesday

Rodge · 20-02-2005, 11:46

Yeah. Tuesday. I really should check these messages before I post them, shouldn't I???

Now I can see where you're coming from I see why you put 'Take a radio to the game!!'

Thanks for letting us know you were broadcasting it. Have some Karma!! Will there be full commentary on the Halifax game or just snippets?

Fair enough, Rodge. Thanks for the information. I really should be singing your praises instead of complaining. Getting to listen to most of the game was so much more satisfying than trying to follow along with the BBC text commentary or the Sky Sports Live Score Centre -- especially with the result. I was just so excited about being able to "experience" a Stanley match for a change that the updates were driving me mad.

We will definitely bring updates on every game from now until the end of the season. At the absolute minimum that'll be a preview, half time, full time and goal updates. Looks like the Halifax game will be extended updates- at regular intervals of every 10 minutes or so.

As far as positive comments are concerned, an email to the station wouldn't go amiss.......via the website.
I will keep you updated on future coverage.
