Don't know where to bung this so this'll have to do!

Has anyone got a World subscription?  :o Just wondering whether it's worth getting since I'm not in Swindon now

Sometimes you just can't get the commentary. Swindon commentators are so crap they talk about anything but the game. Often get a better reflection of the game listening to the opposition's commentary.

Still better than nothing though.

Yes, its a godsend frankly.

There have been issues with the commentary, especially the sound dropping out for a second or two every now and then, but my evidence this season is that things have improved a bit.

The Swindon commentators (mainly Ed Hadwin) aren't great, but if you had to put up with the Rochdale commentary every week, you'd hang yourself - they made Ed sound like a world-class commentator.

They often do special promotions. I just renewed for 25 quid as opposed to 40, so keep a look out.

For a fiver it's worth having if you you live out of the area.

Having had to listen to opposition commentary a couple of times (i.e Frank Sidebottom and Little Frank v Rochdale) I've actually come to appreciate Ed, Shaun etc much more!

I thought it was about £40 a season?!?

Oh yes, I should have said a fiver a month. Still not too bad though.
