    You mean Andy Gibbs? I can't stand that muppet.

    I don't know why everyone complains about Stringer, yes he talks complete **** most of the time but he makes the game enetertaining. He shows passion in his commentary which is the most important thing. The details about our performance don't really matter because if I haven't been I can get a report from other people who went on sites like this.

    I think stringer is alright. If i was commentator for city i would be shouting swearing and wanting to get involved with the crowd. So its not as easy as everyone makes out. He keeps it entertaining even if he does go on about rubbish sometimes

    Andy Gibbs is a massive douche.


    Strings and Youngy are both die hard Leicester fans so its good to hear it from their perspective but you should go to the games,.

    surely commentary should be UN biased, having your own fans makes it poor for the neutral fan listening<ok>

    Its actually BBC`s policy along with any other journalistic realm within the uk.

    There are more NEUTRAL fans in Leicester than city fans, so therefore it should be a neutral affair unbiased to any direct gloating. because in the uk we dont gloat or didnt you know this.

    If you're not a Leicester fan and you're listening to radio Leicester you deserve to listen to commentary biased towards Leicester

    How many neutral fans listen to Leicester games on the radio?

    At the end of the day, Stringer is the most passionate commentator we've had for a long time. Best since Nev Foulger I would say.

    too right, why would i want to listen to a neutral man on a saturday afternoon when you can just read the reports etc after the game. Hope Stringy gets more biased, every local radio station has local bias, that's the whole point of them!

    Could be worse anyway, BBC radio Derby's chief football commentator Colin Gibson (or Colin Bloomfield can't remember which is which) is a Forest fan, and always very negative towards the Rams, hows that for bias

    For those of us who live not locally and overseas - The BBC Radio Leicester commentry is obviously the only option from week to week.
    you take what you can get!

    anyway as much as they bang on about not being biased - the likes of 5 live are biased towards the bigger teams man u's, aresenals, chelseas etc. - fair enough they have a bigger fan base - but even the phone in's are dominated by their fans and even when a token smaller club fan gets on - the likes of alan green etc. give them a bit of lip service - then move on rapidly!!

    just think of the radio leicester commetry as a high brow version of sky's fanzone!!!

    All the media care about is Man U, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man City.

    No one else gets a look in.

    I want to a tv channel focus purely on the football league and forget about the prem

    the whole of the BBC football organisation is totally London centric, only teams outside of London they care about are Manchester Utd Manchester City and Liverpool. End of the day it's a local radio station that focusses on local news and sport, why would we bother listening if it didn't? Like Proud Fox et al have said, the big teams get enough coverage

    Are you for real. Shouldn't be biased? So you tune in to listen to Radio Leicester, with most people living in Leicestershire listening and the commentator should be a Wolves fan let say? What a load of Rubbish.....
