Commentary from Crawley tomorrow (hopefully)

BBC Hereford and Worcester have announced that they hope to bring commentary from Crawley tomorrow.

Trevor Owens, head of sport, has sent the following:

BBC Hereford and Worcester (in the shape of Keith Hall) is planning to bring first half updates, and then full second half commentary on the game on our 94.7 FM frequencies; but...and this is something of a bigger than normal "but"...

There have been problems with the ISDN line out of Crawley in the past; assuming this works, you will get the commentary. Colleagues in the deep south assure me it is now far more reliable than previously, but I am putting this proviso in place through my own bitter experience of having flogged round the M25 in the past (for a Worcester City game) only to find the line didn't work.

Assuming all is well, Herefordshire listeners will get the United game; Worcestershire frequencies will get the Harriers game from Scarborough. I will inevitably age by about twenty years in forty-five minutes trying to make sure it all works when it should...
