Guest Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I know there are a few threads about the BBC deal, but i just wanted to add an extra angle to this. (sorry if its been mentioned). I'm sure there are a fair few of our older supporters who can only keep up with our games via listening to the commentary on BBC RS. I just feel sorry for them. Thought it was worth mentioning.

tarn owl Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I don't listen to the games on Radio Sheffield myself. But as you mention i know certain people who do, these are highly unlikely to sign up to an ifollow system to listen to the games, especially at £5 a month. Seems short sighted by the club and so last minute. They should have accepted the deal and planned out a proper plan for how to launch FREE radio coverage with adverts from next season. Not well thought out by the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEE Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 This is why it’s so frustrating, I know many elderly people that listen to it because they can’t make the games, I love to listen to it In the car when I can’t make the games. This is a massive mistake in my opinion, I think a lot of the questions on Monday night at the fans forum will be regarding this and less questions about our more important issues.

SWFC need to look again at pricing for listen only, not sure what would be acceptable level for OAP listeners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alan48 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 With so few away tickets available , and only ever through a points system which just ensures that those who've had tickets before get tickets again , R S has for me and many others who cant get to games anyway , always been essential listening .What will Robert Jackson make of all this !

matthefish2002 Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Club could have made a big thing out of we were going to say no to Radio Sheffield but after much thought we decided against it as our aim is to make Sheffield Wednesday as accessible to as many people as we can.
