the recent history of the<br>club.<br><br>“We’ve had great support from Bay 102.8 for the last two seasons and<br>it’s absolutely fantastic that they are providing live commentary on<br>these important games with the co-operation of BBC Radio Solent.”<br><br>Alan Coote, Managing Director of The Bay 102.8, said: “We are very<br>excited about this tie-up. The commentary will be provided by a unique<br>collaboration between The Bay 102.8 and BBC Radio Solent. The Bay<br>102.8 team at the ground will provide additional analysis on the<br>matches.<br><br>“It’s almost unheard of for an independent station to work with the<br>BBC and use their fantastic resources,” added Mr Coote. “Our audience<br>will hear the BBC’s excellent live commentary on the games while our<br>team will provide pre-match, half-time and post-match analysis. We are<br>really pleased to be working with the BBC.”<br><br>The upcoming games may remind many older
fans of the days when Poole<br>Town, established in 1880, not only reached the third round of the FA<br>Cup but staged memorable clashes against Manchester United, Watford,<br>Newport County and Queens Park Rangers.<br><br>“We have two big weekends ahead of us and tip-top live radio coverage<br>of both thanks to Bay 102.8 and BBC Radio Solent,” said Mr Bumford.<br><br>END<br><br>PHOTO CAPTION: Alan Coote of The Bay 102.8 warms up for the football<br><br>For more information please contact<br>Steve Cook of Seeker News & Photo<br>01202 779604<br><a ymailto="mailto:steve@seekerphoto.co.uk" href="/mc/compose?to=steve@seekerphoto.co.uk">steve@seekerphoto.co.uk</a><br><a href="http://www.seekernewsandphoto.co.uk" target="_blank">http://www.seekernewsandphoto.co.uk</a><br>_______________________________________________<br><br>Reply - <a ymailto="mailto:cma-l@commedia.org.uk"
