Commentary

Hi all
I have bad news
FROM FISHY SITE:
No commentary for the foreseeable future
Due to Football League regulations preventing clubs from broadcasting their games for free, Accrington Stanley's matchday commentary service is suspended from today.

The League contacted the club this week to inform us of the rule and tell us to stop broadcasting immediately.

We apologise to all supporters who have come to rely on the commentaries and hope to have more news on a revised service soon.


I can't say much about this other than that what it says above, other than Rob Heys, myself and the team at 2BR have worked really hard to get this service up and running, only to be told that the club isn't permitted to make the decision to give it to supporters for free.

I hope that the service can be revived, but that's going to be down to you guys. The only way we'll be able to reinstate it will be through a subscription service (which will mean completely redesigning the interface)

I'd like to hear from as many of you as possible (via email - [email protected]) about what you think of a subscription service and how much you'd be willing to pay.

It's fair to say that I'm a very unhappy chappy today...

For today's game (and at least the next couple) we'll have a text update service on the fishy site and at Accrington Stanley (ASFCofficial) on Twitter

Sorry!
Dan
