So no commentary tomorrow On Radio Sheffield of our important local derby..

Sheffield Utd and Wednesday have obviously much more important matches...AGAIN!

 

its just totaly wrong

when wed are at home, most of there fans will be at the game, like when we are on at home i never listen because im at the game

 

I phoned Football Heaven last night and complained

asked what criteria they use-couldn't say-I made the point that Wednesday are safe-Rotherham and donny I can understand and maybe Sheff U but ours is the only game where something can change-ie we could go up to 3rd or fall out of the playoffs-didn't get a satisfactory answer-try phoning yourself tonight-01142796699

 

commentary is on radio leeds if you can get it.

 

Couldnt People....

just go to the match or listen on home 107.9fm ?

 

Ah, so that was you.

They were a bit dismissive.

Hello Paul,

Huddersfield vs Barnsley is easily the match of the day. Quite a lot riding on it. I think a defeat for Barnsley tomorrow will end the chances of finishing second and could see us temporarily out of the playoffs. A win would put us in a VERY strong position.

On the other hand, Sheffield Utd are 6 points clear of second place and therefore tomorrows game will not really affect anyting. BBC Sheff admitted this during the program.

I also have an issue with the Rotherham & Doncaster game. They argued it was a Derby game (and it is obviously important for Rotherham). However, they didn't cover Barnsley vs Chesterfield recently did they?

Sheffield Weds should NOT be covered because it is a home fixture for them.

Having said all that, they promised to cover the Oldham game.

 

not everybody can get to the match

And i've no idea if you can get home 107 in barnsley</p>

 

RE: not everybody can get to the match

tune a radio in to 107.9fm and check now if you can get home fm. where you planning on listening to the game given a chance ?

 

Is there a case for a Radio Barnsley ?

Here in Swindon (which is smaller than Barnsley in both area and population I think) there is a BBC station and an independent station (GWR) - commentary is available on their matches every week, home and away</p>

 

Mine's just gone straight past 107.9

And I cant remember how to 'fine tune'. I'll be listening on barnsley world anyway but I was just talking about the people that havent got it. I think that after paying the same licence fee as the people of sheffield then the people of barnsley should be given the same standard of service.</p>

 

I wish dearne fm would get their act together

And do what they promised when they were starting up. Full match coverage of all barnsley games was what they promised.

 

Please....

more fans though because they are bigger clubs with more fanbase and in a higher league.

 

I firmly believe the local tv/radio media definately, purposefully

avoid giving us publicity.</p>

It is not in the interest of the piggies / l**ds for Barnsley to be in the news.</p>

Having said that I am sure the club does little to help the situation.</p>

**** em anyrooadup.</p>

Swindon is similar at any rate</p>

RE: I wish dearne fm would get their act together

Difficult if BBC have the rights which I believe they do

 

Sheffield Wednesday are at home, those fans will be at hillsbrough attending the game

Barnsley are away in a local derby which is important to the season.</p>

Radio Sheffield is a BBC licence fee funded station that is governed by certain rules and regulations. They are not supposed to be driven by higher listening figures but by providing a fair and equal coverage for all of its listeners.</p>

 

I dont think radio rights work like that

But I am probably wrong. I read somewhere on the internet that more than one station can have full coverage but of course they have to pay for it.

 

go to the game then!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

@s'on Radio Leeds 92.4 fm

 

I'm sure .............

that my predictions were right! United to go up-Wed to stay up</p>

ours is the one match tomorrow where things can change</p>

here's hoping for a 7-1 !!</p>
