Listening to the game
 

Being a brand new fan to Accrington Stanley, and not being able to goto the game due to me being in the States; I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible for me to listen to the game.

If you`re lucky and the local superclubs (PC gone mad) aren`t fighting out their trivial feuds then you may get full match commentary if not live updates from.....

http://www.2br.co.uk
or
http://www.bbc.co.uk/lancashire/local_radio/

Or if Stanley are away from home try the websites for the local radio in that area.
If you log on here leading up to a match then someone usually comes up with a source.

Cart On Minnesota Cart On !

P.S. What time of day is 3 oclock saturday afternoon in Minnesota ?

Re: Listening to the game
 

Thanks for the help, to answer your question its 9:00 am Saturday at the start of the match. That's plenty of time for me to wake up from a fun Friday night and listen to the match.

Re: Listening to the game
 

Surely its 3 oclock?!! Or is it a trick question???

Bad advice regarding the Radio Lancs link Minnesotafan - useless for internet listeners - the rest is good advice though - best bet is 2br and let me know if when you choon in you get a message about your IP not being in the UK.. :)

Re: Listening to the game
 

I just checked the br website and it did give me a message about being not being in the UK; however I was able to listen to the BBC site, so if the match is going to be aired I would be able to hear it.

Hi and welcome buddy,

BBC Lancs VERY rarely do full match commentary, however 2BR do ............ may I suggest that you PM Jimbo T Hornblower for help regarding getting 2 Br on the internet, I know that He was able to help Kiwi John in NZ receive it.

Nice to have you with us!

Re: Listening to the game
 

A very warm welcome to the Stanley board Minnesotafan - good to have you with us as a fellow supporter - and may I wish you many happy hours listening to the exploits of Super Stanley !!! :D :D :D

:Banane04: GO STANLEY GO !!! :Banane04:

Hi all

Re: Listening to the game

loweiy

Re: Listening to the game

Re: Listening to the game
 

Thanks for the help everyone; I will now without doubt be able to listen to the match Saturday. All thats left now is a win.

and no rain

Re: Listening to the game
 

Minnasotafan, the only way you will get to listen in the USA is a link from Jimbo to put in your I tunes. The BBC will not be available during the match, Radio Lancashire the same, (no loss). 2br is the only one and you need the link.

Re: Listening to the game
 

Thanks Bazf, Jimbo has already helped me so I think everything should be good for Saturday.

Re: Listening to the game
 

Dan and Karen do the best commentaries. The Radio Lancs just lack the passion and excitement. Surely wi` all t`internet and that tackle there should be a way to listen t`t Stanley and/or t`dingles in t`21st century an` all.

Re: Listening to the game
 

Was it something I said? :confused:

I thought we had something special Jimbo ... ;)

Just for information purposes, we've got at least 3 (and almostly certainly 4) commentaries in the pipeline. Will keep you all posted.

Re: Listening to the game
 

possible listening to away matches in the sportsbar from now on then eh?

Re: Listening to the game
 

Passion and excitement, the lack of football knowledge, the right line up, and they sound like they want the other team to win.

Re: Listening to the game
 

Hi, Minnesotafan. As others have said, welcome.

Hope you have ordered plenty of goodies from the club shop so that you can display your enthusiasm "stateside". And I especially hope that you have ordered at least one calendar - but then I would say that!

Re: Listening to the game
 

Welcome aboard the Stanley train, Minnesotafan. If you don't mind sharing a bit, how did you find out about ASFC and what led you to join the cause?

Re: Listening to the game
 

I'm sure I will be corrected if I'm wrong,but aren't you two pretty close by?
And a 'G'day' to Minnesota fan.

Re: Listening to the game
 

Compared to NZ and Accy, they will be nextdoor neighbours.:D

Re: Listening to the game
 

Close is a relative thing, Mr Kiwi. It's at least 11 or 12 hours of driving from my home to any point in Minnesota so I am a bit closer than the rest of you but it's not ideal for a quick weekend visit. :rolleyes:
