    Can't get Radio Norfolk down here even with DAB. Use Canaryworld so don't get too much apart from Saturday. And I turn it off once the match starts on the internet.
    So I don't know what the gripes are but most seem concerned about it.

    Rob Butler must be the worst presenter/commentator ever.

    His arse licking attitude to his ex pro guests is nothing
    short of embarrassing.

    If that's the best Radio Norfolk can come up with I
    give up.<steam><steam>

    A total 24 carat twat.

    The scrimmage had gone downhill since the format change to quiz.

    Rob Butler is a sheer drop to death off a precipice for those unlucky enough to be in earshot

    Can't disagree, but it's the people who ring in that makes me mental. The greater majority have never been to a game but still have an opinion on how players and the team have performed, and what should be done about it.

    I like butler, he tells it like it is, in fact I've been compared to butler a few times

    I'm pretty sure it wasnt in a complimentary vein though...

    Think the I player option is blocked on match days? Rob Butler is a div, but I like McVeigh and I'm glad the commentary is available for another 2 years amid BBC cost cutting.

    Rob Butler is a twat, and loves the sound of his own voice far too much, but I agree with ILD - it's the callers who drive me up the bloody wall! <grr>

    Except during matches of course when they broadcast something else for "copyright reasons"

    I agree that the Scrimmage has been disappointing since it changed to the Quiz. I used to look forward to my drive home on a Thursday, was even known to leave work late so I could hear it all. I particularly enjoyed the phone interview with the opposing team's fan; loved the poet from Barnsley whose name I've forgotten. I really can't see Butler being able to host the intelligent and amusing show that I would want to listen to, so I guess it'll be CD's from now on.
