Re: Thankyou very much Hereford...

"whats changed in the land of sheep sha gging and inter family marriage, same old inter breed were better then you"

....and you're concerned about the quality of the banter?

Give me strength.

For the record, the covered terrace to which you refer is not "condemmed" it simply is subject to regular safety checks which cost money. It is simply not worth getting a certificate issued every time the ground is open particularly when our seated accommadation is a pound or two cheaper than most League two clubs charge to stand...and there are no pillars in the seated area. There are support pillars in the standing area. However, this area holds around 450 and rarely accommadates more than 200 or so visiting fans. Now then, if you want to stand behind a piller, that's up to you but most intelligent people wouldn't.

Have you considered the possiblity that a bit less radio coverage might actually encourage fans to go to the games? The media facilities at Edgar Street comply with the league rules. It is also worth mentioning that The League sold the rites to live broadcast to PremTV and maybe we are trying to support the League contract rather than undermine it?

Thank you Sarah_d. Makes for a better afternoon all round for those of us who can't get down there.

Especially for those who can’t get off there a*** and support Stanley like proper supporters because of things like Work, ill health, old age or caring for others.

Re: Thankyou very much Hereford...

BBC Hereford and Worcester own an ISDN point at the ground, which they are lending to Radio Lancs for the match. Every ground, down to about Conference North/south has a local BBC point. According to Hereford, that is the only facility in the press box.

So because 2br aren't BBC, we can't use a BBC point and there are no other options.

So sorry to those who might've listened because we can't do commentary, sorry to anyone offended by my initial flippant post and sorry for opening my gob in the first place.

If it is going to cause so many problems, I'll stop using this messageboard to inform people about the coverage.
Like I said, sorry.

Well, that does it. My secret is out. I can't be a true supporter because I don't attend all of Stanley's matches. Whatever will I do now?

Like I said, sorry.
If I had to express an opinion or a choice I would want to listen to b2r’s commentary. Dingle lover’s aside, my reasoning is that the best Local Radio coverage available to any passionate <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com[IMG] /><st1:City w:st=[/IMG]Stanley </ST1</st1:City>fan is provided by Dan and is recent side kick Karen. Nothing against Cotty or that nice chap Mr Dibble.

Keep posting Dan, despite the alternative commentary I’ll still be listing for the updates.

Re: Thankyou very much Hereford...

I've missed a few games this season due to work commitments, I'm such a part-timer armchair fan!!

Oh well, turning up to Colchester on a Tuesday night, getting back at 4 in the morning knowing I had to turn in for work at 7, must not be as committed as turning up to Hereford.

Although, I did actually go to Hereford, just through luck of finding a lift a couple of days before the game.

I absolutely refuse to use trains, ever!

Now then, if you want to stand behind a piller, that's up to you but most intelligent people wouldn't.

That would explain the mass of barb wire to the side of your main HOME stand then that if you stood next to was below head height and very dangerous right next door to a confectionary bar, also highly enjoyed seeing a rat (and trust it was a rat, not a hamster, Dan will verify me running out very, very quick) in the Ladies loos on the home end, how on earth you have got a safety certificate is beyond my comprehension. Says a lot about your fanbase that you don't need that third end doesn't it!!!!!! Can I say at Stanley there is 100% nothing blocking your view apart from if you're unfortunate enough to have Jase standing in front of you in his red afro wig!!!!

Have you considered the possiblity that a bit less radio coverage might actually encourage fans to go to the games? The media facilities at Edgar Street comply with the league rules.

The media facilities at Edgar Street DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT comply with league rules at ALL!!!! 'They have been in the League before' so why should they update their gear!! Hold on a sec, does that mean Stanley don't have to update their gear neither seeing they have been in the League previously too, one rule for one, another for another!!!! As for less radio coverage you wouldn't know the bonuses of having radio coverage as NO ONE covers you! Maybe you wouldn't be as cocky if you knew the positive effects there are in having radio stations covering you!

It is also worth mentioning that The League sold the rites to live broadcast to PremTV and maybe we are trying to support the League contract rather than undermine it?

PremTV are a separate deal that commercial broadcasters do not have anything to do with that's like saying BBC or Sky can't broadcast if PremTV broadcast, that's rubbish!!! You are undermining League rules by not following them in the first place!!!!!

Sorry for the rant guys!!!!!
