The Town’s local radio station will also broadcast an unrivalled programme on matchdays at the One Call Stadium, providing an extensive preview of the game in the build up to kick off.

In a joint statement, Mansfield Town’s Operations Directors Paul & Tina Broughton said: “We are very pleased to have to have reached an agreement over away commentary rights and to continue our excellent working relationship with Mansfield 103.2. We also plan to work with the radio station throughout this season on a number of key initiatives.”

Mansfield 103.2’s Managing Director Tony Delahunty said: “'Now that Mansfield Town are back where they belong in the Football League, Mansfield 103.2 can fully support the club and I believe our relationship with the club has never been stronger. I am delighted with the name ‘Stags FM’ being used as the station’s name on matchdays at the One Call.’ ”

The Stags’ home commentaries will be broadcast only on the club’s online subscription service Stags Player via http://www.mansfieldtown.net, with away commentaries supplied by Mansfield 103.2.

Meanwhile, the radio station’s popular show, ‘The Friday Night Football Forum’ is set to continue, hosted weekly by Jason Harrison from 6-7pm.

clarification on availability of commentary

home games: commentary on StagsPlayer with myself, Nigel and Steve. No commentary on Mansfield 103.2 FM or 103.2 website or on Radio Nottm or on BBC website. Away teams will presumably provide commentaries on their local radio stations and on their Player service but not on the BBC website.

away games: commentary on Mansfield 103.2 FM but not on 103.2 website. 103.2 commentary will be streamed onto StagsPlayer. Home teams will presumably provide commentaries on their local radio stations and on their Player service but not on the BBC website.

So online commentary is ONLY available on StagsPlayer. Radio commentary is ONLY available for away games and ONLY on 103.2
