In recent weeks I have been in talks with Alan King from Meridian Radio

MERIDIAN RADIO have provided entertainment and information to the patients and staff of hospitals in Greenwich and Woolwich since 1961. Meridian Radio is now available online and is dedicated to providing a local radio service to South East London

Both Eric Brackstone and Myself have been invited down to the station as I thought for a meeting but it seems we will be on the Alan King show between 6-8pm

We have had some great ideas put to us by some of the people at the station which include

Having an Advert and Jingle created for the station

Anouncing our results , giivng a preview on a Saturday morning and a possible outside broadcast

Early days but all seems promising

Here is the link to the station

Well done Paul, good luck to you and Eric. 

Argh, forgot all about it and only caught the last few minutes - if somebody could bullet point the main discussion points on here that would be much appreciated

Many Moons ago, CAFC supporters use to have a radio show on Time FM on Sunday nights, basic format were  3 supporters talking all thing Charlton, they talked about the game they had just seen, mentioned up and coming events and had a phone ins and guests in the studio etc.  One of the presenters would do the live commentary from away games. on the station.

This had to stop when CAFC was being paid to be covered by a larger radio station.

Perhaps this maybe something that could be pursued by Welling United (initially as a trial period or as a pilot.)  with meridian -  today's game  would have made a great radio show listening and  talking point for phone ins.

Indeed, whats PUTRID is i still have the audio somewhere where 2 seasons ago Davison said LIVE ON AIR we will cover the Wings if they are doing well. That became Well you arent in Kent so we wont cover you unless you play a Kent team.

Hopefully the tie in with Meridian can develop and they can be the clubs official broadcast partner. Would LOVE Radio Kent to be stopped from broadcasting from PVR as lets face it all they will do for us is lower the gate as some away fans will stay in and listen to their team. You can swallow that if they cover you well and you get a fair crack of the whip. When you are sent to coventry and never covered however... there is no downside to stopping them broadcasting from park view road when it suits them to cover one of THEIR teams.

We wouldnt lose anything and if they have kent teams visiting us and want to cover the games then they can do that if they re instate us as one of their teams for EQUAL coverage.
