York Commentary

[Charles Webster]

If you want to hear local radio coverage at it's best on Saturday may I recommend that you follow the game on BBC Radio York. If on the other hand you want the usual style that you have become accustomed to over the last three years, I will be "calling" the game for BBC Radio Kent on Saturday.

As long as we can hear it this week, Chas...........I'm up for it!


I only speak for myself though.......Not the new found Soccer Football purists!

[Charles Webster]

Guaranteed a mention AFF. I will have a shilling handy to put in the meter unlike the Woking debacle. With Matt Davison alongside me in the commentary box it seems that those left in the studio didn't make the right connection for internet commentary from Kingfield. With Matt back in charge on Saturday I think all the right connections will be made. To say he was not pleased with what happened last week is an understatement,

[Harry J Allstars]

I thought that was your new style Chas, after the MyFCers complained?

 

Seriously although I don't get to listen, please keep up the good work. Don't let the bastards wear you down, we like you just the way you are.

 

I hope Barry Parker is there, I know some people in York who will be listening for "key first half incidents" and wanting to know what bus' pass the ground, something that Parker likes to keep people updated on.

So it wasn't deliberate and you've not got a secret stash of the recording lying around to be 'digitally enhanced' in coming years like The Beatles Anthology and then sold as a limited-edition Webster recording as a nice little nest egg for your retirement?

[Charles Webster]

Hi Stu. How's Madge? Even with my extensive library of pre recorded commentaries you still won't hear anything if the folks in Tunbridge Wells don't flick the right switch. Matt was particularly upset as it was the first Fleet game he had done this season.

Please can we have all goals given in both yards and Alan W yards?

As long as they aren't in Metres/Meters, that will really confuse a lot of overseas listeners!

Told you, four posts down.

[Alan W (GNFC)]

Very good, H - just one problem .... you get taken to a login page only !!

[Harry J Allstars]

Ah you must have register before reading it. Some bloke just said that Parker told them of a vintage bus that passed the ground.

 

I happen to know that it was an X80 and going to Lakeside.

Heard the webcast today in the States and thought it was pretty good. There isn't anything wrong with showing some passion for the game. keeps things from sounding stale and bland. I thought for a moment some profanity was going to be heard after the equalizer was disallowed (I still keep hearing that call could have gone either way, was it that close?), but decorum was maintained. Keep up the good work Chas. Also after watching some EPL matches today, sounds like the weather was worse at Stonebridge Road than at Goodison Park at least (some shots of some standing water on the sidelines during the match)

[Harry J Allstars]

Goodison Park is about 250 miles away from Stonebridge Road.

Thanks Harry. I didn't know. Just trying to get some sort of weather comparison. Thanks again for the reply.
