As with most things at our club we try and do things on the cheap and end up doing it badly.
Having a commentator for away games who is sat in a room hundreds of miles away watching the game on a TV screen is never going to make for good commentary. And as nice a person as A O'C is he isnt a commentator to make the game at all sound interesting - indeed he spends more than a quarter of the game throwing around stats in the same way that Russell Martin used to do.
For home games the effect is just as dire. I couldnt make yesterdays game but watched the Stoke stream ahead of our own as I have started to prefer to do as the opposition largely tend to provide proper commentators.
SwansTV has become a bit of a joke over the years and doesnt get any better. It follows a general feel in the management of the club under the charlatans that bought it 8 years ago
The product is awful Phil.
We used to get a pre-match show with a host and 2 pundits, usually an ex-Swan, plus the half-time show.
Then they cut the pundits and pre/HT shows.
Then this year they've cut down to 1 commentator - with nothing at HT except for silence and the stats.
If the actual stream is now the feature, at least get the picture/sound sync'd up.
All this while costs increase. It's a joke.
