Hahaha it’s unbelievably bad.


I agree, it has been painfully cringeworthy so far. I don't rate JT either, though. Local radio just doesn't have the funding it once did, and now it has suddenly been thrust into the limelight with iFollow nabbing the feeds it is being made to look extra awful, since radio commentary is just not designed to be listened to with live pictures. Shame.

Been saying this for years but:

Radio Humberside are amongst the best local sports broadcasters in the country and their awards are deserved.


They'd be better if they didn't cut to Burnsy every 10 minutes to give an update on Hull.

I thought they’d done this for ages for all local clubs live to the FM coverage?

Not when there’s nothing going on in the game they’re cutting to, when the ball is in play on the commentary game like they did on Tuesday.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Listening to the garbage Radio York provide , including electric buses etc., never in a million years. JT has his faults, but haven't we all. You don't know what you've got till he's gone.

Hardly an excuse nowadays. If you're listening to the game you're going to have the right device for your game, esp. as the feed is being used for iFollow now. You're not going to listen to a Grimsby game if you're a Hull fan just to hear Burnsy with Hull every 15 mins, surely?

When you listen to last Saturdays drivel then JT is brilliant. He might have faults but who hasn't.
