Does anybody know where I can listen to the games online? Only some of them are on the BBC website and the only radios I have are in my car or on my phone and my phone gets no signal in my room and I don't particularly want to drive around for 2 hours.

Just wondered if there were any other places people knew of that streamed the commentary as it has to be better than watching Sky Sports Soccer Tuesday!

Good thinking! The only thing is hearing the Biasness of the commentator ha!

I will have a look on their local radio and have a listen.

Fingers crossed it will be on CWM though.

I believe most games cannot be broadcast online because of the agreement between the Football League & the club websites and that Premium TV. You can listen to the game on there, but you pay for the service.

It won't be on there either. FA Cup games are on the radio I think as they aren't governed by the football league.

Yes but the issue was listening to them online. If you use the BBC online radio system they cut it off before kick off.

I'm away with work at the moment and was bored last night in the hotel so wondered what the 1st ever thread was. The first was locked (some game thread) and this was the next. Once I read it, I just had to find out if Nick ever did get his DAB radio!!

So this forum started just after the SISU purchase of CCFC.

This is an interesting fact for the conspiracy theorists!

I think it depends on the radio ...I have 3 dab radios but can only get cwr on one of them ... Which is fine as I obviously only have one on at a time

I go to Devon about three times a year and can listen to BBC CWR even in areas without free wi-fi by tethering my Samsung Galaxy Ace mobile phone to my Ipad and selecting CWR from the Radio player App. The Ipad then connects to the internet on 3G which is fast enough to listen to the broadcasts. You can listen to the Friday night phone-in and also the post match phone-in but sadly any match commentary isn't allowed because of licensing laws. However, BBC Sports provide a full live text coverage and I think that is possible the best on offer. Unless you subscribe to Sky Blue Player of course.

One at a time? I'd have one in front and one either side.

Surround sound.
