Argyle and DAB

Argyle fans from around Devon rung Radio Devon to complain and was told 'the phones are in meltdown' but
some dozy tart at the BBC called Emma Clements has decreed that DAB will not cover Argyle this season!..

Joined forces with the farm and send E-mails to this silly woman who was responsible for us to be taken off DAB.

You must email [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and put her firmly in the picture

this MAY be her twitter so you can go there if your on there. i found he on the list of follows on the nnv radio devon account.

A stupid decision but I don't feel comfortable about going onto her personal Twitter to have a go. I think if enough people email (sensibky and constructively) then the message should get through.

Fact is that Radio Devon is complete shite and not fit for purpose so this is no surprise.

I thought it was always the case that the Home devon club got BBC radio devon priority, but Sparksy would be on the Plymouth wave? Basically if you're not in Plymouth, you need Argyle player. Always been the case ain't it?

No the dab covers all of Devon, since we lost the medium wave from radio Devon, Plymouth always had the dab for football games

It's also the only radio signal that reaches me on the outskirts of Tavvy, FM fizzles out about ten yards from the house, I will have to revert to player or sitting in the van outside.

I used pick up the medium wave in Cardif and Bristol in the old days

Seems to be a massive issue to the farm dwellers, petitions cobbled together and a march on number 10 in the pipeline, everything else at the club must be ticketty boo for this to be the main issue.  Give me strength.

Anyone who makes a decision that results in Sparkes being able to broadcast to as few people as possible should be rewarded with an OBE IMHO.

Raring to go Garry. We're stopping at Wotter Bridge on the way and having a fight among ourselves just to get in the right mood for the match, should be a goody.
We lost 5-1 at Whitsand Bay last week after turning them over 5-1 at our place-weirdly, Mike Libby and myself were the only ones to lose at Hurdwick and the only ones to win at Whitsand. Funny game sometimes.

No, .they will keep you up dated but it is mostly Rugby on a saturday afternoon

Rugby is far more popular than the football the further West you go from the Tamar. Also, I think I'm right in that Radio Cornwall takes over the Radio5 live MWave tuning when you approach the Glynn valley. Different air.

True, oh well i guess memberships to argyle world will increase now £5 a month for virtually nothing

Does any of that £5 a month go to the club?
