Go on Twitter and give this lad some stick,sure he can sort it @TheJackDearden

If they are short of reporters (and this may sound daft) but as we have a excellent set of reporters covering virtually all our home games, could Radio Manchester not go to one of our guys (or girls) to get a score update and as the same local reporters usually go to away games could they not use them via 'phone' to get the occasional update , that way the club gets the coverage and the Radio station fulfils its community aims.
Dave P and co may knock it back but has anyone ever asked them from the BBC ?

In terms of the reply I do think its a honest reply but just shows how far down the pecking order sport is on Radio Manchester.
On Tuesday Radio Lancashire had Blackpool, Burnley, Blackburn & Chorley all live on different channels with different reporters (And co presenters).
I suppose the problem with Radio Manchester is it just has 95.1 and the internet to put games on - very poor for such a big catchment area but equally not used fully by any stretch of the imagination.

I for one would frown at that, people that pay a subscription service to LC TV and pay to buy the DVDs expect an uninterrupted commentary on the game and at most if not all away games we are only allowed one commentator due to a lack of facilities at most Championship stadia, a definite no no from me, plus a mobile phone ban is in place with my team at both home and away games when we are in place and certainly when the game is in progress, concentration is paramount to ensure a good 'show' for our customers, most if not all clubs have a similar restriction for the same reason.
And as far is I know - No no one from the BBC have ever asked.
We have looked at providing an away 'radio' service but the cost to us prohibits it, plus as above some of our opponents wouldn't allow us - take Swinton a couple of years ago for instance when they wouldn't allow Leighlife to 'broadcast' and that was at the LSV on their 'home game'.

Can I just make it clear that Leighlife radio doesn't cost the club a penny. I know what Fred is saying in the post above, I just wanted to clarify the situation for those who may think we take any kind of payment from the club.

I live within earshot of Spotland. I didn't hear a dickie bird on the day of any crowd noises. What was the attendance ?

Charlie knows !

You probably wouldn't have heard any birds, because of the shouts of the Leigh fans - "Forward", "Get 'em onside!" etc.
