Anyone remember the great Chris Florence? Was only about 8 when he covered the Stoke games but loved him. Years later was in the USA and he was covering the football on World Service when trying to get the results on a transistor radio in the days before mobiles and internet etc. Trying to get the scores abroad was a bit of a bollox. Especially trying to get my Mum to work Ceefax on a long distance line.

So sorry for Nige and his hoppo commenting on the game. Bad as Stoke are at the moment, I don't expect local reporters to support the opposition team in games. The comments on the game were shameful. Orient this... Orient that... Orient worth this, Orient worth that... while every comment re Stoke was a negative and I am sure that the result was a disappointment for the commentary team.Time for a rid out at Radio Stoke sports section.

It seems like they take some sort of pleasure by talking us down.

On the whole I like Radio Stoke but I want them to be partisan
I listened to the commentary from Radio Derby when we played there. It was excellent. They were on the side of Derby but were able to make genuine comments about Stoke's play and style that were fair

Nigel Johnson referred to Orient as Gillingham twice. I don't see why he'd mix the two up but he did. I like him though. He's a Stokie and the mistakes he makes aren't major. Mixing a few names up is common. Any mistakes re muddling up player's names isn't a big issue for me. I want passion for Stoke and certainly want bias:-)

Wheres the post match analysis, call in and interviews Like my arse radio stoke😡 I think they have their scheduled Sunday shows and cut into them for the game. No need for me for all the after game stuff and phone in etc today for me. As for Angela Smith, some seem to have an agenda against just about everyone in the media of they don;t say this and that about us . She's fine and knows her stuff .

Come on mate them going off air just after the game finished is pathetic in my opinion.They’re there to provide a service to the license payers and like I keep saying it doesn’t happen on any other local stations.

Do we need all that after match stuff though for a game no bugger went to? They were providing a service, whatever show is on Sunday afternoons. Last local station I listened to was in Bristol and they just went for goal reports. Not saying they do that every game but I can't see the point in some Hiyaduck type ringing in after today's game. If we were playing say Arsenal then perhaps but not this.

Nothing today though, still playing the "programme unavailable" message Strange….I listened to the whole game on BBC Radio Stoke internet radio and beginning of P&G. I’m down in Devon and normally get the contractual message when trying to list to Championship games but have noticed before the FA and League Cup games commentary is broadcast across the internet BBC Radio Stoke.

I never have the actual match (overseas) but P&G usually kicks in after. Hopefully it's just a technical error today or something.

I assume that they do not have the rights to cover the matches online in the championship, though the BBC does for the FA cup The lack of P&G may also be contractual restrictions or amateurish fuckwitery

Sooner Angela is gone the better.
Can't forgive her when she admitted turning off the radio (during lockdown) when she was on duty.
