BBC Local Radio in National League agreement (1/7/16)
The BBC Local Radio stations across England and Wales have signed an agreement with the National League to provide coverage of the leagues’ matches until 2020.

What coverage?
Nothing could replace all the fun...technical problems, set up problems, travel problems, weather problems, chat moderator problems experienced by the commentators at BCIR.
