Radio Wales

[Sussex Red]

I think they do still have a team of people based in Wrexham, at an office near the library.

Mainly news and production, not sure any progs are broadcast from Wrexham.

Quite why the commentary rights couldn't have been given to a local station in Wrexham however, like it was when Calon FM broadcast the games, annoys me somewhat, as it's clear BBC Radio Wales does not ordinarily serve North Wales well at all.

Further, if BBC Wales really wanted to show their commitment, maybe a permanent radio and TV facility in, I don't know, possibly Wrexham wouldn't go amiss?

That's not cynicism, it's reality.

Personally, I find Ratty amusing and knowledgable.

I find Barry Horne informative and knowledgable!

Radio Wales have massively upped their game this season in terms of their Wrexham coverage. Horne, Wayne Philips, Andy Morrell and even Ratty as rotating analysts have really added value to their coverage.

Love him or loath him Ratty really knows his stuff. Potential DOF? Scout?

Would love to see Morrell back at the club in some capacity but as a former manager PP wouldn’t want that.

Jesus H, Ratcliffe relegated both Shrewsbury and Chester but you want him as DOF ?

Are you trying to kill the club ?

I really wonder some times...
Perhaps he could turn around all these 'woeful' performances we keep putting in

I'd send Ratty to Furloughfield as DOF he'd do a great job there

Ratcliffe as DOF! Wow that's a good one. I wouldn't put that idiot in charge of paperclips personally! Did you see the job he made of managing? Shambles.

Ratty does not wear rose coloured specs.

He is a rambling old sod and I suspect he's never been any different even when young.

He does know his football though.

Why does Ratcliffe get the Wrexham games?

Do other regional broadcasters get ex professionals with no connections to the club to commentate on the games?
