Surely Radio Manchester have a social obligation as a Tax payer run station to have some live RL games?
It covers all the usual minority areas the BBC are in place to run so surely RL as a sport should get live coverage from the station as BBC Cumbria, Leeds, Merseyside and Humberside cover it live.
Maybe a rebate is in order for those that live in 'Greater Manchester' as the BBC aren't providing a service they are paid to.
Get Andy Burnham on the case.

GMR used to be absolutely fantastic for sport, used to cover all the RL at all levels. Think they must have got a new head of sport a few years ago as they've not got the Sunday Pub League Football show & The Rar Rar Show yet RL is cut down to just SL to make way for "What's that noise?" & the hits of the petrol station shop clearance CD bin it's clear they've no idea at all about sport in Greater Manchester. The whole station has gone completely to pot to be honest.
