Jackie, I should have said official apps. There are a lot of unofficial apps.

I honestly thought there were United apps in the store that I've seen and skipped hastily past! (smile). Naturally you've done a search with their name or words to that effect in it? I'd never find an app for them if I wrote the words I had in mind in my search, (big grin).

Another idea is absolute radio and the World Service usually takes in the second half.

Andy's right I was looking for commentary on United's games when they are only broadcast nationally on Talk Sport as I can't stand their commentary. I tried BBC Manchester, but they weren't allowed to broadcast online and so weren't broadcasting through OOTunes on my IPhone. I also tried Key103, who used to broadcast United's games but they either aren't doing them anymore or like BBC Manchester weren't allowed to make them available online. I may have to bite the bullet and pay for a MU TV subscription and get the radio commentary that way. As I recall though it wasn't terribly accessible and I'm not sure they've got a way of accessing the commentary from a portable device. One of the football apps suggested is supposed to be getting commentary soon, but hasn't yet. I also read some comments suggesting that some of the most important info wasn't accessible. This included scores. Any other ideas? I'm absolutely amazed that United haven't got an IPhone app of their own, its unlike them not to make the most of getting as much money out of the fans as they can. LOL.

This is apart of course from my most wonderful Manchester City, who allow BBC Manchester commentaries on their website, even though they are not allowed on BBC Manchester's own website. So, any body supporting a prem team can get two free commentaries a season by going to: www.mcfc.co.uk bear in mind however that JFW earlier than version 12, can not see the listen button on the webpage, JFW12 and System Access can though - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns"<jackie.cairnsplace@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To:<access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, September 12, 2011 8:10 AM Subject: [access-uk] Re: Football commentaries on IPhone or PCHi Yusuf Then I would recommend Tune In Radio for around 59p. I use it all the time for stations you can't pick up on the Sky or Freeview boxes, for example. As for DAB, well I can't get that here anyway.

I can't stand Talk Sport and they are doing United's commentary this evening and I'm trying to find a way of listening to the match without listening to Talk Sport or subscribing to MU TV.
