Unless we are the only north east team in action you won't find much in the way of commentary on BBC Tees. It's improved slightly if you have a digital radio. For the Gillingham game on Saturday they were switching between Pools and Darlo with the occasional report from a non-league game. Boro were out of the way on their other channel.

I would expect full radio commentary tonight as we're the only team from the area playing, but for typical matchdays I would go for the PoolsWorld option if I wasn't getting to the games.

I'm almost certain there is full match commentary tonight on Cleveland

I've always found Pools World to be ok - it depends upon who is the expert summariser, Mickey Barron and Matty Robson are usually good fun and obviously knowledgeable about the squad. Mick Gannon is also good as is our own ECG.

Whether it is worth it or not depends in how often you will be listening to it, if you go to most matches probably not, if you don’t attend away matches it probably is and for exiles it’s a godsend.

As for not using other aspects of Pools World, if you have it it’s better than Virgin media for highlights as there is no advertising beforehand although I can appreciate that the Virgin media is good for those without PW.
