hi ya ..does anyone know a good site that has commentary in English for the World Cup that I can listen to whilst watching the Japanese tv coverage. For the English game I found a Bradford Radio station but was surprised that the commentary was about ten secs or so behind the tv picture. It was pretty weird . Maybe this would be the case for all audio feeds . I am not sure.But any ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Started a new thread as it seems the other one is pretty much devoted to footy talk

cheers

I haven't checked, but BBC Radio Five Live probably has it. If you go to www.bbc.com and click on the Radio link you'll find your way there.

I have searched at length for English commentary.

I have managed to find it but it by subsciption only at www.xmradio.com

Neiter the BBC or TalkRadio offer match live to overseas listeners.
