Radio Northamptonshire Strike Again

"I do like a bit of Gash!"

At the start of the season we contacted Radio Northampton over their seeming bias towards covering the Scum on their online commentary.  Why, for example were the Poppies away trips not being covered, rather than the Direones at Non Park.  Head honcho Geoff Doyle conceded that although they tried to cover whichever Blue Square game wasn't being broadcast by another station, it was, perhaps not the best use of their public broadcast mandate to cover a home team, where theoretically all the potential listeners would be at the game.

We thought this would mean that they would look to cover whichever of us and the Scum were on our travels.

You can't have failed to notice though the continued enormous slant towards covering the barely mid-table progression of Justin's team of evil nonces.

On the same day Radio Cumbria are sending people to cover Barrow's away game at Eastbourne, RN were faced with following us down to Hayes, or settling into the Radio Northampton suite at Non Park.  You'll never guessed which they plumped for.....

It wouldn't be so bad, but the few times they do rip themselves away from Edinburgh's ever-available teat, RN use a Direones fan to report on us!

Sorry Radio Northampton - this is simply not good enough!

We have sent an email to RN, asking if they would care to comment, and tell us exactly how many times they have covered both us and the Direones this season.  We will report back if they deign to give us this information (and it proves our point....!)
