Have you ever heard of BBC Radio5Live??
For the ones in britain they probably know it but if you live in another country you really should know that this radio station is the ultimate for football(and other sports) coverage.
My fave commentator on 5live is alan green!
May BBC Radio5Live continue for ever!!
I live in holland and still(funny enough)get it on the normal radio( 693 MW) http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif so I don't need to listen over the internet http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/smile.gif
If you live outside the UK(&ireland) and want to listen to the best football coverage in the world go to:
www.bbc.co.uk/radio5
What do you think of Radio5Live??

Hold on there buddy.
5 Live DOES broadcast tons of Premiership and International matches (along with its other programming.
But, it does not hold the broadcasting rights over the internet. If you want to listen to live interviews with Tony Blair, go ahead and listen. Otherwise, you HAVE TO HAVE A RADIO TO GET THE MATCHES.
Believe me. England v. Ukraine & England v. Finland were both on 5 Live and were not able to be broadcast online.
You're best bet for live audio commentary ONLINE is talksport.net
They broadcast MOST England international games online. BUT, they didn't do the Finland game for some weird reason. The Finnish government f*cked that up.
Talksport are also available on shortwave radios in the UK & Europe. As are Five Live.
Talksport broadcast England cricket aswell. BUT NOT ONLINE AS THEY DON'T HOLD THE RIGHTS.
My brother works for a radio station and knows quite a bit about this junk. If you have a question, ask me and I can probably answer it.

Thanx a lot a_shearer09!!!
I had totally forgotten 'bout that one http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/frown.gif sorry...
To Legia Machester:to listen to manutd matches go to:
www.manutd.com
on this official manutd web site they broadcast(almost)every manutd game!!!!
And for non-united fans talksport.net is the best!
I really do hope that Radio5Live will get the broadcasting rights for tthe internet coz it's fab.
If you do live in the UK then I advise to listen to these programs http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/frown.giftimes are all british time GMT)
-The Breakfast Show:
Nothing to do with football but the program is great!!It has news sport and it's funny.
(starts at 6 am to 9 am every working day)
-Nicky Campbell Show:

(starts 9 am to 12 pm every working day)
-Ian Payne:

Well these are the best programs(actually everything is good)!
If you want to listen over the internet you can listen to the programs listed above but not to sports events coz(as a_shearer09 said) they don't hold the broadcasting rights http://www.soccergaming.com/ubb/frown.gif
