Has got to be the biggest pile of shite ever developed.

Despite numerous emails / posts to Jon radio, interviews still require you to stick your head as close to the speakers as possible even then on full whack it's hard to hear, this was reported about 2 years ago and still isn't fixed, he claims theres nothing wrong with it despite people constaly saying otherwise.

The video footage on Bantams World compared to other sites is also a joke! Others have fans commentating we don't we have the odd sound from the crowd and thats it.

Definatly won't be paying £34.99 to renew next season.

I only subscribe to the commentary version of Bantams World. My first year I subscribed to the top package, which gave me access to every other PTV clubs website. The content on some of the other sites compaired to Bradford City's is absolutely fantastic. This is because it is up to each club to produce their own content. Bradford City don't have any money and just give you the bare basics. I remember once when I had access to the entire PTV network watching the 3 or 4 minute highlights of Reading V Bradford on Bantams World and then logging onto Reading FC World and watching the 20 minute highlights they were offering their fans.
Though I will be honest and say that the quality of the commantary feed has improved 40 fold since Bantams World first started, so for ex-pats like myself, it's a great way of following City's matches.
I've sent a few emails to JP and made a few posts on the OMB asking him to get say media students from a local college or university, or film students to organize and prodcue a better product for Bantam World subscribers on a very low budget, but like most suggestions to City by the fans, it fell on deaf ears.

I flagged it away after one year,the first one about 3 years or so ago. not good value for what they delivered. Value would be ok if the product was ok but it is not.Sound poor,video a waste of time. I've see lots of complaints on the old board since then. Cheers.

Audio is better now but there are still cockups -- plus Derm keeps saying "Did you see that" --- er no!
