    Friday 15th March - UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League Quarter-Final draws

    UEFA.com - Chris Parrott commentated on both draws

    Sky Sports News Radio - David Reed presented coverage of both draws alongside Danny Mills; they took clean audio feeds of both draws

    talkSPORT - Ian Abrahams updated both draws while reporting from the Cheltenham Festival during Keys & Gray (with Richard Keys in London and Andy Gray in Cheltenham)

    BBC Radio 5 Live didn't have a reporter covering either draw, they simply provided news of them during their usual half-hourly sports bulletins.

    UEFA's Gianni Infantino and Giorgio Marchetti conducted both draws from Nyon, with them being joined by Steve McManaman for the Champions League draw and Patrick Kluivert for the Europa League draw.

    I've just caught up on BBC One's Midlands edition of Late Kick Off before it is taken off the iPlayer and as has been the case over the past two seasons, the programme continues to use BBC Local Radio commentaries on their highlights edits of the weekend's goals. We heard the following voices on the first show of this season:

    Nottingham Forest v Wolverhampton Wanderers - Colin Fray (BBC Radio Nottingham) on the Forest goals; Rob Gurney (BBC WM) on the Wolves goal
    Leicester City v Sheffield Wednesday - Ian Stringer (BBC Radio Leicester)
    Derby County v Birmingham City - Mike Taylor (BBC WM)
    Swindon Town v Walsall - Andrew Dawkins (BBC WM)
    Scunthorpe United v Coventry City - Clive Eakin (BBC Coventry & Warwickshire)
    Burton Albion v Cheltenham Town - Peter Matthews (BBC Radio Gloucestershire)
    Port Vale v Southend United - Lee Blakeman (BBC Radio Stoke)

    We also heard commentary clips from Gurney and Taylor during Laura May McMullan's feature on Wolves with Matt Murray and clips of Blakeman during McMullan's interview with Port Vale striker Tom Pope. To give you the rest of the details, Manish Bhasin presented alongside Dean Smith and Michael Johnson, with Natalie Jackson doing an "access all areas" feature with Billy Davies and Nottingham Forest.

    Do any of the other regional editions of Late Kick Off use BBC Local Radio commentaries on their weekend goals montages?

    Yes, it is Hereford United v Barrow in the Conference Premier today. Forest Green Rovers hosted Mansfield Town on Friday night.

    By the way, great job by 4-4-2 in compiling the details from five different stations including a couple which don't often get a mention on here. :)

    It was John Anderson who commentated on the late game with Darren Eadie.

    And to confirm talkSPORT UK did take Talking Rugby's updates on France v Scotland in the Six Nations from Simon Ward.
