Thanks to the poster who put me onto this station for today's match commentary.
Don't know what the other output is like, but the football package was excellent.
Give it a try.

Thanks from me as well. Could actually listen to this feed in Ireland, unlike the BBC.

Good commentary with a bit of actual humour (not the crap bbc in-jokes) throughout! Always like a wee bit of roughie too. Converted. Cheers pal.

Central, like it says in the thread title. Operates out of Falkirk I think. Decent commentary. Good co-commenting from Roughie. No nonsense scores and reports updates.
None of the 'banter' nonsense you get on BBC.

Yup, really enjoyed it.
Is it usually hibs or hearts as the commentary game?
Also works outside UK so its a double bonus for many if us (on top of it being a good listen).
Best Saturday in a very long time

Brilliant coverage of the game and reports from the rest. Even when Hibs are not featured I'll prefer this to the pish the BBC are offering now. Android have the major share of the smartphone market, but the BBC can't provide a stream that works on my phone and CentralFM can...Go figure

Sounds good. Anything would be better than the parade of hacks on BBC. They try to outdo one another in hype. It's always 'brilliant' save or 'great' shot when the reality is quite average. Shows up the lack of vocabulary most of them have!

Thanks from me too as I was able to listen from Cyprus. Well done Hibs, gutted I missed a good performance as it doesn't happen too often but just maybe there will be more of them to come. :aok:

Does anyone know if they'll have coverage of any games on Tuesday?
