My thanks to 13,293 people who I hoped enjoyed my commentary of every away game this season except Dover pre season as they refused to let us bring you the game, I shall continue to do the games next season and maybe the home games too if there is enough interest ? I would like to know your thoughts about home matches being done as well???

Ade your commentary has been an absolute pleasure & god-send for us Invicta expats. I'm sure you regularly see comments from far flung places - a regular in Malta, me in Derbyshire, etc - so very welcome from those of us far from SE Kent. Your commentary skills have also come on well, so very professional. You've even managed to fix the microphone glitches (I'm sure it was at Bowers & Pitsea where we had 45 mins of kids screaming). Many thanks.
Would home game commentary mean sometimes people wouldn't come to the match? The club needs every source of income it can, so even losing just one fan in the ground has an effect. Clearly those of us far away would welcome home commentary, but not at the detriment to the club.

I’ll speak with Neil Cugley and Paul Morgan before deciding on what to do at home matches just thought I’ll throw it out there for feedback first

Your radio coverage Adrian has been excellent throughout the season. Thank you. Probably the most useful part of the clubs media. I can't see covering home games would affect the gate but would help those that can't make it. Keep up the good work

I agree with Johnsteve Having home commentary would not change my decision to attend or not. But if I cannot go it would be great to have.

Maybe do home commentary as a trial (eg block of 5 games). If it seems that the attendance is diminished, then revert back to no commentary. As an ex-pat Folkestonian I've got most to gain from the commentary but even the loss of one person attending the game means that we shouldn't do it.
