Euro 2012 Commentary of every game will be on BBC and Talksport - http://radiotoday.co.uk/2012/01/talk...uro-2012-games

Good to have a choice!

Not a massive surprise really, as this has been the arrangement for Euro 2004 and the last two World Cups.

It was posted on here by 4-4-2 that Moz Dee had announced that talkSPORT had secured Euro 2012 commentary rights at a lecture late last year, so I guess both stations secured the rights a while ago and this is a case of them waiting until the first working day of the New Year to make the announcement.

Reckon both channels' live commentaries will also be available online, Diff?

No idea to be honest. If either/both are allowed to stream their commentaries online, I reckon they'd be geoblocked (at least theoretically if not in practice) outside of the British Isles.

talkSPORT's press release says their Euro 2012 commentaries will be available online, but I'd imagine they'll be UK only. It'd surprise me if this wasn't the same for BBC Radio 5 Live.

Staying with talkSPORT, and it looks as though we'll be hearing more from Georgie Bingham in the next few weeks. She presented Sunday Exclusive and the Transfer Tavern over the Christmas and New Year period and is back to anchor a Saturday night edition of the Transfer Tavern over the next couple of weeks between 19:00-21:00. She's also down to present Sunday Exclusive on 15th January for commentary of Newcastle v QPR and Kick-Off on 9th, 10th and 11th with the latter anchoring commentary of Tottenham v Everton. Mark Saggers, incidentally, is presenting 10:00-13:00 that week alongside Micky Quinn.

Manchester City v Liverpool - Dom McGuinness
Tottenham Hotspur v West Bromwich Albion - Ian Abrahams
Wigan Athletic v Sunderland - Simon Humphreys

Championship
Bristol City v Millwall - Dave Rowe

Thanks for supplying the news about Georgie Bingham 4-4-2. She must have impressed talkSPORT's bosses during her previous cover stints to be given the nod to fill-in for Saggers on Kick-Off ahead of Danny Kelly and Ian Danter next week. The Transfer Tavern was a good listen last summer so I'm glad that's returning.

Tottenham Hotspur v West Bromwich Albion - Tom Ross and Darren Carter (commentary)

Tony 'Bomber' Brown is contributing via phone to Beacon and Gold's build-up. I guess the problems he's had with his hip mean that he's able to get to the Hawthorns to summarise on Albion's home matches but isn't yet ready to travel to most away games.

Just after Newport County went 1-0 up, Rob received a text from Chris Blight (County's chairman) of the score, which amused him no end

Would I be correct in saying that this is the same Alison Robbie that was formerly with the BBC, presenting Sportsreport on Saturday's? I also assume she is taking the role left by the sister of BBC Scotland's Chris McLaughlin's?

Don't panic, everyone! It was Kit Symons. Everyone relax.

I notice Five Live aren't doing this weekend what they pointlessly did for the past two years and do commentary on an obvious Chelsea home banker against a middling Championship team on Sunday at 3pm, but just doing chat and that before the whole of Peterborough vs Sunderland. Although I guess it might have had more value this year as the Peterborough game is on terrestrial television. It's the right choice, though.

Newcastle United v Manchester United - Sam Matterface and Stan Collymore (commentary), with Graham Courtney at pitchside and Carl Ralley producing

Are you not going to include the teaboy?

The four people they've sent to SJP plus Saggers and Beeky should suffice!

According to the website Peterborough v Sunderland is on Sports Extra while Chelsea v Portsmouth on 5 Live.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/5live/sport/commentaries/

The Radio Times has it how you have described but I suspect the BBC changed the schedule after the magazine went to print.

I don't agree that this is a home banker for Chelsea, the way they have been playing. We don't know for sure that AVB will pick all of the first team. The FA Cup will be low priority for a team still in the Champions' League and chasing a Top 4 league place.
