Some of you may remember a few weeks ago, we played Portsmouth in a friendly which was played out at Havant & Waterlooville's ground. Before the match, SlowerThanPlatt put a post up regarding an internet commentary..... ("South Coast sports radio will be broadcasting the pre season friendly, Portsmouth Football Club v Coventry City tonight. It is free to listen to online and you don't need to sign up to listen. The coverage will start from 19.10 and the link is http://mixlr.com/southcoastsportsradio1--2/ ")......
I've been looking at the site myself (only out of interest, since I have experience in broadcasting), and got to thinking, could someone on the forum do something similar for all the City matches? There are literally thousands of fans like me, that simply can't get to the games but would love to listen to live commentary (we can't all get CWR!). This could be a live broadcast to all our fan-base, not just around the country, but around the world.
It is dead easy to set up. All you need is a an iPad or whatever, with a good microphone set-up and permanent internet connection. Then just create an account at mixlr.com with a name for example, of Sky Blue Fans Radio (or similar). And that's it basically! It's free for one hour, and then you just quickly restart the broadcast for another free hour! Seeing as each half is 45 minutes long, each game could easily be covered. Chat & comments can be added as well. I just think someone with a bit of oomph and fun about them? Also maybe with a bit of radio experience? TrueSkyBlueLiam springs to mind.
Anyway, just a thought.................
(If anyone is interested, PM me and I can help with details of how to set it all up at mixlr.com, if needed)
