FA Cup game on tv?

Sun Dec 02, 2012 5:52 pm

I think our cup game against Barrow or Macclesfield should be on BBC or ITV like our early round in 2007/08. All our games where featured on those channels :ayatollah:

It's a good 70+ miles north west of Blackpool. I was there in 1993 to watch Clydebank and revisited around 2 years ago though there was no game on, we were just passing really.

Chasetown vs Cardiff City in January 2008 was on tv, as was Hereford Vs Cardiff City. Don't see any reason why this one shouldn't be

chasetown/cardiff was on s4c same as most of our cup games, plus some of swansea's. barrow/macclesfield won't interest any other channels.

Barrow is an utter shithole of a place. Had the misfortune to spend a day there with my work. Depressing doesn't begin to describe it. Still going to go if we get drawn against them though :ayatollah:

They tend to give you the option to switch to Radio Wales Sport commentary these days since the Beeb took over running them.
