Sat 24th Sept
Man United v Leicester City (12:30) - John Murray and Chris Waddle
Swansea City v Man City (3:00) - Ian Dennis and Terry Butcher

I was hoping 5Live wouldn't cover our game against City tomorrow as that would have given me a excuse not to listen to it... I'll have to show solidarity to the boys now though and hope we don't get too imbarissed.
talkSPORT 2's commentary team at Liverpool v Hull City tomorrow will be Simon Humphreys and David Fairclough, with Ian Danter hosting Matchday Live 2 and The Full Time Phone-In from Anfield as well. talkSPORT's usual Saturday 5.30pm commentary team of Sam Matterface and Stuart Pearce will call Arsenal v Chelsea. I think Fairclough is a good appointment, I've not heard him for a while but I used to rate his co-commentaries on ITV's Champions League coverage when he was a regular part of their team around the turn of the century.
talkSPORT's midweek Champions League commentaries will be CSKA Moscow v Tottenham Hotspur on Tuesday and Atletico Madrid v Bayern on Wednesday, although the latter will air on talkSPORT 2 while the main station will do an Around the Grounds show - with Celtic hosting Manchester City, both games involving British clubs are being played in Britain that night, with them usually only providing commentary on UK clubs when they play in continental Europe. Although it's not listed yet, I think talkSPORT 2 will be broadcasting commentary on Hapoel Beer Sheva v Southampton from the Europa League on Thursday at 6pm. I believe there will also be a Championship Around the Grounds show on talkSPORT 2 on Tuesday, which has become a regular fixture on Champions League Tuesdays.
Joe Mills and Darrell Goulding were Wish FM's commentary team at the DW Stadium for Wigan v Catalans.
Without spoiling any results or the semi-final line-up, next week's semi-finals have been confirmed as taking place on Thursday and Friday night, both being 8pm kick-offs. Hopefully talkSPORT 2 will be able to provide commentary on both matches - although I imagine they'll stick to the recent set-up of joining Mark Wilson and his co-commentator just prior to kick-off should coverage follow on from Southampton's 6pm Europa League kick-off and new 6-8pm Friday show The Weekend Starts Here respectively.
The Super League Grand Final is on Saturday 8th October, which happens to be a World Cup 2018 qualifying weekend. England are at home against Malta that day in a 5pm kick-off, with Scotland and Northern Ireland then being at home from 7.45pm. As such, talkSPORT won't have any live football commentaries but I expect they'll offer their usual Around the Grounds offering - on Leagues One and Two from 1/2-5pm, before switching focus to the internationals. As such, the Grand Final will probably be on talkSPORT 2 - although they should be able to have a good 45-60 minutes of build-up as it is a 6pm kick-off. I reckon Matchday Live 2 might carry commentary on one of the 3pm Premiership rugby union fixtures that day beforehand.

Going by last week, live match producer James Dodd might be conducting the post-match interviews as he did at Everton v Middlesbrough last Saturday and Sunday producer James Savundra did at Crystal Palace v Stoke City. Almost two months into the season, I don't recall hearing Ray Parlour providing punditry from a 3pm game - he had been a regular in this role for a number of seasons, but I believe his Sports Breakfast co-presenting commitments have increased this season which may explain his absence from Matchday Live.

Rus Williams is presenting Scores on LBC News. The show uses the same reporters as Newstalk. I wasn't aware that the show had moved. I thought it had been scrapped completely.
Viking 2 is still not providing commentary oon Hull City's City. There is no mention on the station's website, and their Twitter account gives the impression they thiknk they're on air. I would not be surprised if the commentataryy team are still ccommentating.

I think its more of a Traditional thing. From being a relationship with a couple of people from Chesterfield in the past, people listen to Radio Sheffield in Chesterfield, travel into Sheffield more than Derby and is nearer to Sheffield than Derby.

Following the resignation of Sam Allardyce as England manager, all of the night's live football coverage was moved to talkSPORT 2, with the commentary on CSKA Moscow v Tottenham that was due to be on talkSPORT being moved to the secondary channel along with updates from Leicester and the night's 11 Championship games. I didn't hear the show live, so am unsure of who the station's reporter at Ashton Gate was - if anyone knows, I'd be grateful if you could share it on here.
The main talkSPORT only took pre-match team news on the Spurs and Leicester games and a full-time report on the former fixture, such was the dominance of the Allardyce story.
Going by talkSPORT.com, Atletico Madrid v Bayern is going to be live on talkSPORT with Around the Grounds on talkSPORT 2. I imagine that will likely change with the commentary moving to talkSPORT 2 and more Sam Allardyce talk dominating the primary station's Kick Off for the next few days.
