Far be it from me to comment on the quality of the commentary when it is provided by volunteers, however listening to the club livestream is borderline pointless apart from listening out for the key events. Very little attempt to actually describe what’s happening on the pitch, instead more focused on belittling the referee and exclaiming “oh my god” and “no chance” constantly.

Also would it kill to get a teamsheet so they can actually read the names of the opposition players? Rather than a constant stream of “number 9, plays it to the number 11, plays it to the number 8”.

I know it’s all a learning curve so hope the feedback is taken in the constructive way it’s intended.

We’ve lost 3-4 and Walton have won 6-0. Thank you for the commentary today.

Regarding your first sentence. That's exactly what you are doing!

Of course the commentary isn't up to professional standards, but at least we have one in real time that is a huge step up on merely following the Twitter feed. 

Today's results mean that we are now seven points and eight goals behind W&H, so even if we beat them both home and away, we'll still be a point behind them at the end of the season if we match their results. We need to rely on them dropping more points than us until April!

When you give away a penalty and get a red card for a challenge which even the home were vexed by, saying he clearly played the ball, you are always going to struggle.

The officiating today was beyond poor, to the point there appeared to be genuine bias.

Wow what an experience, an exciting game were even  tho the ref played a massive part in the final result the boys played some good football and almost got the point there efforts deserved.

Unfortunate that there players and staff got involved in goading us after the final whistle even tho we were aiming are frustrations purely at the referee.

Yes we lost, but compared to last seasons away days under MC a totally different Saturday afternoon.

Will not mention what I think of City's only 1

Seems we are having a game discipline issue. The team has got to be under control or we are going to keep dropping points. We are looking less and less like a Club headed back up. Certainly, we don't want to remain mired in this tin pot league.

There really was no lack of discipline today. No bad challenges, no hot heads.

Just an incredibly inept referee.
