  • Nice blog Phil, always read with interest. Keep upthe good work!

  • Good stuff, as ever

  • Good if that works out. Last time I tried to listen to a home game it wasn't on any 3CR frequencies during the actual match.

    I hope you're on the commentary team Phil, couldn't stand listening to the Luton FC bias if not.

  • @wingnut At Adams Park the game needs to be on 98FM as that's the only frequency that really works in HW. As there is only one game on Tuesday it's across all the stations frequencies.

    @Gordon_Ottershaw I am on comms duties on Tuesday with Luke Ashmead from 3CR and a summariser whose identity I don't know yet. I'd imagine any Luton focus will be largely based on their current dreadful form.

  • ...which we're rather hoping will continue.

  • The last home game on a Saturday wasn't on 98FM. All I could get was Watford's match. Can the signal strength not be increased overall.?Reception locally has always been poor here while Radio Berkshire is very clear

  • @wingnut Watford are assigned 98FM so WW commentaries are only available on this frequency when Watford are not playing.

    98FM works perfectly well in HW area, we just need to get the WW games on that frequency!

  • Thanks for explaining. I won't bother looking for it if Watford are playing. As a matter of interest is Bucks one of the "Three Counties"? They probably are and in that case is not well served it seems.

  • Beds, Herts, Bucks. Milton Keynes gets a lot of coverage, so I suppose North Bucks is well served.

    What we really need is Wycombe Sound to take off and get Phil's match day commentary on that.

  • Gordon is correct, Beds Herts & Bucks. Whilst the coverage of WW has improved, it's not comparable with the other teams who all have regular and relevant frequencies for their games. WW are still only commentary games when there is no clash with Watford (on FM) or occasionally with Luton (who use the MW frequencies, one of which is ok in the HW area).

    Wycombe Sound, once they have a licence is potentially a great option.

  • Tonight's big game is live across all BBC Three Counties frequencies from 7pm with Luke Ashmead, Scotty and myself. 98FM is the best signal for High Wycombe area. I think 95.5FM is the frequency if you are in Luton this evening,

    The show will feature pre-match build up with interviews with Gareth Ainsworth and John Still, the game itself and post match reaction.

  • @bluntphil will player be live from 7pm for the build up ?

    Looking forward to another great commentary. Very useful service you provide for us exiles.

  • @NorthumberlandBlue Good idea, will ask the studio to dial the show into Player from 7pm

  • I'm in Belgium tonight unfortunately. Can I access the 'player' from here?

  • @Lloyd2084 you have to sign up here https://secure.player.wycombewanderers.co.uk/buy
    monthly or annual rates available.

  • is the Luton game being shown live on player or only on Sky?

  • on player too

  • audio only obviously , many free sky streams available , but can't post link for some reason.

  • take care with those 'free streams' they often bring a virus with them

  • Cheers. According to Norton cricfree.tv is safe.

  • Hopefully a shakey internet and an old PC will hold up for me to watch in a crappy hotel in a Belgian Motorway! I'll try cricfree, thanks.

  • audio only on player - here is link for free sky stream -

  • Morning all

    There is a short preview of today's game with interviews with Gareth Ainsworth and Joe Jacobson on the blog... http://philcatchpole.com/2015/04/03/oxford-united-preview/

    The Oxford United match will be live on BBC3CR 98FM and DAB with myself and Keith Scott (traffic permitting!).

    For those further afield Chairboys Player will also carry the commentary as usual.

    Please do get involved with the show, especially after the game if your stuck in traffic. It all adds to the coverage and it helps break up the monotony of Luton fans moaning about John Still.
