They should get a couple of then fans to do the commentary.. give them free access. Saves money and that'd be brilliant to listen to especially when we score  


If we got certain Fishy members to commentate the station would be shut down before the game finished

I do footy and cricket commentary for Leeds Hospitals.

I’ve covered Mariners twice in away games, and like all volunteer commentators we prepare before each game we cover.

It’s not rocket science. Find out who played in previous game. Get their background career. Memorise their squad number. Look for individual attributes and kit eg colour of boots, hair colour and length…..etc

Check the league tables and recent results. Find out who is injured or suspended. Are they likely to return? Find out squad players and repeat as above.

Wait for the team sheet about 70 minutes before kick off and adjust accordingly.

There is no excuse for crap commentary. My last time covering mariners when at Bradford. Had a chat with Gaz Croft.  Nice guy. We should have wine and finished the game in second place in the league……dunno what happened to the team thereafter…

I think that should be before the game has started.

Some people lose their head over the starting line up before a balls been kicked.

Personally I like to have a couple of beers before I start on the wine, but fair play to you

If the players hit the wine at half time that would explain why we have dropped so many points from winning positions this season.
