I wouldn't complain if I was abroad... Unless it was somewhere like Beirut or Merthyr.

Mark O'Donnell is quality - he is funny and plays top tunes. The commentary makes sense and I can get it on FM (even in Devizes!!).

Funny foreign language - in abundance Funny National Dress - topless in sub-zero temperature, usually holding a bag of chips. That's jut the men. Funny Climate - more miserable and cold than here. Yep, all the criteria met, you are living in a foreign land.

People went over-board about Brunel, the content wasn't any worse than BBC Swindon
Sorry, but the number of times I had to rely on texts from mates at away games because you literally could not tell what was going on with Brunel. Sometimes even when goals were scored, it would be a minute or so before you could tell if the bloody thing had even gone in - you'd get a load of hyperventilating guff like a chihauha humping a table leg, then they'd start rambling again, leaving you shouting at the radio "Well, did we/they score or not?", before they remembered they'd forgotten to mention what the end result was. I remember one particularly fine effort when they abandoned the game altogether and just did a full two-three minutes commentary on the Millwall fan in front of them who was apparently jumping up and down excitedly and "saying things we can't repeat on the radio". Given that he was doing that because we were putting Millwall under a spell of pressure, I'd perhaps rather have heard about that than be told they couldn't tell me what some nobend home fan bouncing up and down in front of them was shouting. Brunel were terrible, end of.

If we get Durham, does that mean we're in Europe then? Whoop whoop.

i like the radio swindon coverage, good tunes and good commentary.
brunel had no build up, the commentary poor (arthur hunt - i still have nightmares) and were generally clueless
