Tonight sees the return of competitive action as the Betfred Cup signals the start of the 2016/17 campaign for Partick Thistle.
We’ll have Raymond Stark and Michael Max at the Excelsior Stadium giving you all the action from the first game of the new season as Thistle look to get off to a flying start in the group stages.
We are delighted to inform all Jags fans that Thistle’s skipper, Abdul Osman, will join the duo during tonight’s audio commentary.
Abdul will be talking to Raymond prior to kick off before giving an exclusive half time interview reflecting on his 75 appearances in the red and yellow of Thistle to date.
It’s not to be missed, so if you can’t make it to Airdrie this evening, make sure to listen in to hear all the action from the Excelsior Stadium, as well as hearing directly from the Jags skipper.
We would again emphasise that this service is still in a trial phase so we cannot guarantee that we will not encounter teething issues as demand on the service increases. Please rest assured though, that our media team will be working hard to make sure everyone has an enjoyable listening experience.
Shortly before kick off tonight, an Audio Commentary tab will appear on the homepage of the website(just next to where the text commentary option is). Simply click the link to the audio commentary page and press play on the media player and it should automatically play for you. Should you be using a device which is slightly older you may have to use our alternative player which is clearly marked on the webpage.
This is a service we are looking to roll out for every first team match so we would appreciate any genuine feedback that supporters have after the game to help us improve the PTFC audio commentary experience.
Tonight’s audio commentary will begin at 19:15
