Can’t understand a thing - I can hear a different commentary team in the background talking over ours, and our commentators are so quiet against the background stadium noise. Awful.

Poll: Will Town score again this season?

Seems to be sorted now.

Think I'd rather listen to the Bolton commentary. These two are terrible.

Yeah, fixed. Much better. Shame about the score ;)

...but do signatures really work?

Who is the co-commentator?


I can't work it out either. I'm sure the main commentator said he was a former Town player who played for his country. But he's so quiet and says so little I've no idea who.

He is too low in the mix. but also offering little and sounding completely bored.

A significant improvement. I can enjoy the silence of Portman Road as if I'm there.

Likewise. Sounded like they were getting really excited about something & then - snap.

Back to BBC live text (updates every few seconds), as "live texts" from iFollow are only once every 5 minutes ...

*Edit - came back with "welcome back everyone, sorry about that, a few technical dificulties" - then went off again, on again, then disconnected mid-sentence within 10 secs of the h-t whistle

The commentator is awful. You don’t get any sense of where the ball is. They must go back to Radio Suffolk.

Radio Suffolk commentary is completely unsuitable for people watching the game though via iFollow. I don't need or want to listen to an audio described version of a video feed.

They need to use Radio Suffolk for Audio only and the new ones for video.

Given the owners are from the states and will be using ifollow to watch us most weeks you’d think they’ll get this shower sorted as a priority.

Why is Radio Suffolk commentary unsuitable for watching? I watched most games last season in Thailand and much preferred Brenner’s commentary than the guy today (even accounting for awful sound etc)

Yeah I'd much prefer the Radio Suffolk commentary with the video. Hopefully the new folks get better as we're currently at Michael Owens level of insight.

I was glad when one of them stopped talking about urgency for a few minutes.

I agree. Miss Brenner and Mick.

That said, can understand doing dedicated commentary for Video. Using this commentary for the audio feed is stupid though. That should stay with BBC Radio Suffolk. I'd be pissed if I'd paid for the audio feed and this is what I was getting.

I don't need to have everything described to me in minute detail, since I have my own pair of eyes, hence why I'm paying extra for the video content, rather than the audio content.

I agree, the current commentary isn't anywhere near suitable for audio only.

Just think that the signal to noise ratio is far too high using radio commentary for video footage. There's far too much of stating the bloody obvious and it just makes me want to turn off the commentary.

Horses for course, I guess. All things being equal I would rather listen to dedicated video commentary.

If it's a choice between good radio commentary and crap video commentary, I would take the radio commentary any day of the week.

Never understood the criticism of Brenner. When you listen to other local bbc commentators he's one of the better ones.

Be careful what you wish for!

He's a good radio commentator, I don't dispute that.
