If BOTH teams are away then City, as the Championship club, should get the preference unless there is absolutely nothing riding on the City game and something riding on the Rovers game. Totally fair in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.e. was not aware that other champ clubs have live local radio for each match.. u sure about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedTop Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Or could it simply be that Radio Bristol has better sports coverage than Radio Gloucestershire and deserves credit for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
