Struggled to get radio wales so listen on talk sport.Was surprised how good the commentary was.I must admit they were far more informative and didnt talk about rubbish when you are sat there trying to picture in your mind whats happening on the pitch. Great win city wait till we get our injured players back.
You missed Ratcliffe being gutted he couldn't single out one of our players for being shit.Quote:

Great player. Terrible pundit. I'm not saying he knows nothing about football, he's just got very little to offer in terms of personality and interest.Quote:

However, he appears to have a healthy dislike for the City based on the few radio commentaries I have heard.
Was there a falling out at the time he was with us to cause this or is he playing the devils advocate to generate interest etc?
Listening to Radio Wales is like listening to Mrs Jones complaining her sheets blew off the line and she was going to take up the issue of peg strength with her local MP
I had the same experience with BBC Bristol when they beat us recently. I actually enjoyed listening to the commentary even though we were losing and they were obviously biased just because they actually talked about what was happening on the pitch about 90% of the game.Quote:

I hope someone at BBC Radio Rugby was listening, puts them to shame big time.

Another thing. I was able to pop into town and listen on my phone, so why do tinpot Talk Sport have DAB broadcating rights and BBC Radio Rugby do not?
BBC Wales is our NATIONAL broadcaster for goodness sake! you could'nt make it up, an absolutely shameful state of affairs

However his skill as a summariser on the radio is matched with his ability as a league football manager and fence erector in my view:hehe:
I think they all sound very amateurish, it's like it's been recorded in some backwater town on a shoestring.
I like your sarcasm! BlackadderesqueQuote:
