Supporters on the move will not miss a kick thanks to TalkSPORT’s nationwide commentary of Crystal Palace against Manchester City. The station confirmed that Adrian Durham will present from midday, linking pitch side analysts Stuart Pearce and Danny Murphy inside Wembley.
Live build-up includes fan call-ins, historical reflections, and interviews with both managers recorded during the final week. Commentary will synchronise with an online stream, ensuring clarity for listeners abroad via the TalkSPORT app.
Producers promise position specific insight, with Micah Richards analysing defensive patterns during natural pauses and former Palace captain Geoff Thomas discussing midfield balance. A separate data channel on X, formerly Twitter, will post heat maps and pressing statistics in real time.
For those preferring classic radio ambience, an analogue feed continues on medium wave frequencies across the United Kingdom, preserving a link to cup final days when households gathered around kitchen sets.
TalkSPORT reporters stationed at fan zones outside Wembley will capture colour pieces, while roving correspondents in Manchester and south London monitor celebrations or commiserations that stretch into the night.
With many supporters facing lengthy journeys, the station expects audience figures to surpass two million, illustrating that radio’s bond with the FA Cup remains as strong as ever.
