Radio Robins is delighted to advise that John Helm has accepted an invitation to be part of the commentary team at The Horsfall Stadium for our game at Bradford Park Avenue on Wednesday night.
The former ITV commentator is a veteran of four World Cup Finals & is a lifelong fan of Bradford Park Avenue.His most traumatic broadcast took place in 1985 when he witnessed & reported on the Bradford fire tragedy, in which 56 people lost their lives at Bradford City's Valley Parade ground.
I believe that I am correct in saying that tomorrow will not be the first time that John has commentated on an Altrincham game as I am fairly sure that he covered a game on Wire TV in 1995 between Telford United & Altrincham at The Bucks Head.
