Really sorry to disappoint Trig and other exiled followers, but no commentary this afternoon, I'm afraid. We do not have a sports show today, since there is no Albion game. And - without boring you with all the technical bits - this makes it harder for me to get on air.
In particular, BBC compliance rules require that every live commentary has a BBC employee listening in. (It is intended to cover the legal issues in case my commentary turns out to be libellous, obscene, or full of racist and sexist language. Hey ho. As you all know, my reporting is littered with all these....) The rule has actually existed for a little while, but the procedures are now a bit tighter.
We are actually discussing - at a very early stage - whether we can at a future point run club commentaries, when the new website is launched. Several other clubs already do something similar. Meanwhile I hope the various Twitter and message-board routes can keep people posted today.

ha ha, I wonder how the compliance rules would handle Brian Johnsons imortal lines..."The batsman is Holding, The bowlers Willey"!

Better news (well, slightly). Still no commentary, but we will in fact have live updates from me into our afternoon show on BBC Sussex 104.5 FM. Can't give you exact timings but keep listening!

Although i do understand why there is no commentary i do feel its such a shame that a show can't be broadcast even online because Brighton aren't playing, there many teams in sussex nowadays.
Not your fault though Mr A.

Cracking start. Look at that fire power on the bench too.

Great, isn't it? Strongest bench we've had in a long time.

H/T 1-0. Not sure on Watts, but I'd say that's quite possibly the case..
