    at the request of Man Utd...anyone know why this is? And is there an alternative as I probably won't be going but wouldn't mind listening.

    Seems a bit odd if the public are allowed in to watch.

    Unless the've got some secret new signing they're giving a run out to.

    How does the away team get to tell us what we can do at our own ground? That makes us look small.

    If it's on MUTV, does that mean there will be a feed somewhere?

    Then we should have not been held to ransom and gone and found new opponents. It's not like they are bringing any player that's worth watching. Just a bunch of kids, many of which will never make it. At least unlike last time their fans can't scare our staff now the bars are up in the away end.

    So it's on mutv for people who pay for that, but not Player when we pay for that? It's our ground, we should be requesting them not to show it.

    Unless they've paid us there's no reason for us to roll over and abide by what they say.

    Jeez...folk getting their knickers in a twist about not being able to listen to radio coverage of a poxy friendly against a 3rd string team!

    I dislike radio commentary at the best of times and whilst friendlies are good for getting the players match fit I can't be arsed with them as a fan. Put the 2 together and my interest levels plumb new depths!

    I was actually quite surprised when I saw there was commentary of the Hull game - I guess the commentators need pre-season training to get used to the new signings!
