We’re hoping that Tom Carney will be along too – Tom did the commentary on our relegation-saving win over Burrishoole a few weeks ago and was a dab hand at it too. Coverage starts at 10.50am. Tune in HERE (archive will be there too afterwards – go to Tracks, where you will also be able to listen to previous games we have broadcast).
