Might be worth putting the radio link on the forum along with what games are being covered? Ive had to ask Freddie a couple of times if it's being covered.

And again Darren, Spike and those who provide HTFC radio have other things going on in their lives and can't reasonably commit to the whole season at this stage and whether they can be there or not. And then it needs someone with the time to add it to the website.

Small job but what I am trying to illustrate is that the show doesn't just run itself. The answers are easy when you haven't thought as to exactly how you are going to arrive at the answer.

It all sounds reasonable and if it were possible it would be great, but it needs someone's time to make it happen. Not just another job for one of the very few already overstretched volunteers who make the club match days run.

Freddie's in Derby now and has less little involvement in HTFC Radio now - only when he's home for the holidays.

Please got me wrong there Chris.

Simply asked for the link to be on the forum along with advertising or a simple post for what games are getting covered by the radio. I certainly would not expect every game.

Judging by Neil's post im not the only one who was unsure if games are going to be covered reason I asked Freddie.

Thanks for reply Darren - apologies if my reply didn't sound too positive. I am just very mindful at the moment at how few regular match day volunteers we have to keep the show running.

I'll give it some thought.....home matches aren't a problem, but my point was that knowing that Spike is a busy man, he can't always commit for away games until the week before. We should at the very least be able to get it in the weekly bulletin and/or post here.

I must admit it would be good for the radio team to publicise the games they are commentating on.

It's such a useful media and very popular. Knowing in advance if there was going to be commentary or not, would be helpful.

I'll have a chat to Maric tomorrow.

Totally agree Brian, a lot of people use it for the away games in particular.

Sure we could set up something to publicise when they are to be on air....just need to put a mechanism in place.
