Commentary is provided by Sidney Wigg and Phil Pethybridge. Sidney was one of the original commentators in 2008 and Phil joined in 2009
This is a free service provided by the club. Headsets are readily available for supporters to collect from DLO office prior to kick off. Please book in advance, as there is limited availability. If interested, please contact the ticket office on 01473 400556.
