BBC Radio Leedss
Tim Steere hosted West Yorkshire Sport and reported on Bradford City's home friendly against Burnley, and Katherine Hannah reported on Leeds United's away friendly against Peterborough.
The Huddersfield Giants rugby league match was online. An equally insignificant Yorkshire Carnegie rugby union match would have been on the radio. |

http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/news/...mpson-11646728 It will be interesting to see if any of the talkSPORT regulars with Liverpool connections decide to join Colin Murray in exiting the station in response to the News Corp takeover. I imagine some will feel under pressure to follow suit or look bad in comparison. Specifically, Graham Beecroft and Ray Houghton have direct connections to the Hillsborough disaster (Ray as a Liverpool player, Beeky as BBC Radio Merseyside's commentator), although both have been with talkSPORT for over 15 years now. Along with his RTE TV work, Ray has been doing a lot of co-commentary work for Irish national radio stations Today FM and Newstalk in recent seasons, so he might be in a position to quietly exit talkSPORT without seeing work dry up, while Beeky does bits for LFC TV. Was he to leave talkSPORT due to the takeover, I'd like to think Liverpool would reward Beeky with an increased role on their channel given his stance - I also think he wouldn't struggle to find reporting work elsewhere. I've not heard talkSPORT covering any friendlies so far this pre-season. Bob Ballard has been/will be hosting Saturday and Sunday Scoreboard between 1-4pm this weekend, with what appears to be a Euro 96 documentary pencilled into the talkSPORT schedule for 4-6pm tomorrow. |

Presented by Richard Gordon, with Richard Wilson. Scottish League Cup - group stage Rangers v Stranraer (7.45pm) - Rob Maclean, Craig Paterson and Derek Ferguson (off-tube commentary) Off-tube again because of the "ongoing situation between the football club and BBC Radio Scotland". |

BBC Radio Leeds
BBC Radio Leeds has secured Leeds United commentary rights for the 2016-17 season and all matches will be on FM. No mention of Freeview, so it may be the case that the station is considering using that platform for the AM or DAB match.
Tim Steere is the new Bradford City commentator and Wayne Jacobs will summarise. Matt Glennon and Mark Lillis will be the Huddersfield Town summarisers. The frequency/platform allocation for Huddersfield Town and Bradford City has not been announced yet. |

BBC Radio Leeds will have separate programmes for all 3 football teams when they are all playing on Saturdays. No decision about frequencies has been announced, but this won't be an issue on the first weekend because Leeds United play on Sunday.

Wednesday 27th July - talkSPORT
Hawksbee & Jacobs, followed by Drive Time with Danny Kelly and Darren Gough UEFA Champions League Third Qualifying Round First Leg FC Astana v Celtic - Graham Courtney Horse Racing: Glorious Goodwood Festival Goodwood Racecourse - Rupert Bell This morning, Alan Brazil presented his Sports Breakfast show from Goodwood alongside Alan Curbishley. Yesterday, Brazil hosted the show from the racecourse with Dominic Cork. Not sure if Alan B be there for the whole of the week, but I imagine Rupert will be reporting from the event for all five days (he was also on duty on Tuesday). These are the other non-football sports events talkSPORT have covered over the past seven days: Cricket: Second Test Match England v Pakistan (Fri to Mon) - Jon Norman Rugby League: Super League Wigan Warriors v St Helens (Fri) - Mark Wilson Athletics: Anniversary Games 2016 Olympic Stadium, London (Fri to Sat) - Michael Weadock Darts: PDC World Matchplay 2016 Winter Gardens, Blackpool (Fri to Sun) - Dan Dawson Horse Racing: King George VI Weekend Ascot Racecourse (Sat) - Rupert Bell (commentary on the Princess Margaret Juddmonte Stakes, the Woodford Reserve Handicap Stakes and the King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Stakes) Formula 1: Hungarian Grand Prix Hungaroring (Sun) - Graham Courtney Bob Bubka will be covering the US PGA Championship golf over the next four days (he's been on doing previews today), while it's been mentioned that Michael Weadock will be talkSPORT's reporter on the Olympics. The first live football commentary of the season on the talkSPORT stations will be going out tomorrow night, as talkSPORT 2 have announced they'll be covering West Ham United's UEFA Europa League qualifier at Domzale. Not sure why commentary is not on the main talkSPORT to be honest, with it being a 7.45pm kick-off it means the scheduled coverage of the Rogers Cup tennis tomorrow night has been bumped from the talkSPORT 2 schedule. |
