They've already stayed on air until 10-30 earlier in the season mate a couple of times so that’s not the case and also most local BBC stations do not do what these clowns do either. There’s no excuse whatsoever for not doing it apart from presenters that want to get home(can’t be arsed).I know for a fact they have no head of sport at the station now McGarry as retired. Sorry to bring Radio Derby into this again but away at Bristol last night(120 miles from home) they wait like they do every match until the manager speaks to them whether it be 10-10 or 10-30?Why can they do it?Dedication to their job?Support of the team?We just have presenters who in my opinion are either not interested or just can’t be arsed. It’s tinpot and needs to change It’ll be nothing to do with presenters mutts and more a higher management decision Whatever it is mate it’s pathetic

Radio Sheffield, Radio Leeds, Radio Derby and Radio Nottingham all finished their sports shows at 10.00pm this week to make way for this Graham Torrington fellow.

Was the commentary on Radio Stoke free to air last night? All season it’s been through the SCFC website and you’ve had to pay. That only applies to internet streamed radio? So I guess tuning in with Alexa will not work either. Money grabbing parasites. I’ve said before that BBC local radio is paid for byTV licence subsidy, so effectively we are paying twice to listen to what should be "free radio".

I'd rather have Torrington banging on the power ballads than Barry from Dresden 'telling it like it is' and moaning that O'Neill won't play Charlie Adams.

Not correct Dave I’m afraid as I was listening to Radio Derby(nothing else on) at 10-15 interviewing Cocu. Also their teams didn’t finish games at 9-55 either

With Leeds for the league cup they said before the penalty shootout that they hope it’s a quick one because the show ends at 10pm. What sort of planning is that? Imagine if bbc one did that when an fa cup game ran over and they turned extra time off for Casualty or some shit.

Imagine watching for a added time winner, and then Super Jacob from Casualty just appearing on the screen. Remote through TV scenario.

Gets back to the car after the game and switch the radio on for a post match phone in and O’Neill’s thoughts🤔Absolute tinpot wankers who have no interest in staying on air after 10pm again.As I’ve said on many occasions they’re just not interested and the pathetic excuses they come out with when challenged about it are pathetic. “We have to cross to other programming” yes of course you do you useless wankers(late night love with Graham Torrington)😡Just like Radio Derby tonight still on air 10-15 until their manager is interviewed when the game finished at 9-35. Have you heard it tonight it's embarrassing. Who ever is presenting it is playing a maths game and thinks he's on radio 1 playing songs all the While then Some nonsense about Instagram. I'm relation to Verlinden and and Jimmy Trash it was.

It's never been the same since Johnny Acres got moved/chopped/demoted from the Sports Dept of Radio Stoke. Anyone remember when Ivan Gaskell used to be the anchor on Radio Stoke covering Stoke? All seems abit amateurish since Acres days & Mcgarry seems to still be hanging on in there & pulling the strings. This finishing at 10pm business is ridiculous, would be interesting to know what there reasons behind it were!

Ivan Gaskill was a local Derby lad mate who I met on a few occasions(decent fella).The excuse they give is they have to cross over to other programs which is utter nonsense

Apart from playing the MON post-match interview that we didn’t get to hear the night before, it was the usual dross. “Ooo here comes another mind boggler, next up Katy Perry” - I can’t fucking wait. “The lines are busy with Stoke fans trying to call tonight, but here’s the weather, followed by the traffic report. Right, time to chat to some backup defender from Port Vale.” “Part 7 of the mind boggler now, with Valiant Jean and John of Bloxwich both getting it right”...why do I listen to this pile of crap?!?!?

Hey Chig. I can’t focus on your posts because that young lady is too distracting. Who is it?

Local radio is full of passionate people doing their best, but like the rest of the BBC is massively under-funded. You want more/better coverage, write to the govenment and tell them to increase the licence fee and/or to the Football League and tell them to reduce access charges.

It doesn’t need more funding to stop the current commentators wasting time telling us about their soup, bread, chips, extra pepper, journey to the ground and whatever else they spew out. We aren’t interested, just talk football as that’s what their listeners have tuned in for. Not too much to ask really...

The BBC is not under-funded, let alone "massively under-funded". The problems the BBC faces are due to their patronising attitudes to listeners/viewers and the absurd salaries they pay some of their presenters.

Massively underfunded..which is why they can afford to pay Lineker nearly £2mill a year and chauffeur their presenters around everywhere. As you say, if they actually spent their funding appropriately there'd be no issues whatsoever.
