John Murray has done a few England friendlies when either Green or Ingham have missed out. I know last year when Green hurt his leg Murray took his place for a game.

Argentina V Scotland (International RU Friendly from Rosario)

BBC Radio Scotland MW - Signal VERY Weak, Can't make out any Voices (plus I'm having to deal with Someone mowing their Lawn Outside!) Anyone able to Help?

Edit: BBC Scotland's Sportsound site says:- Tune in for live coverage of Scotland's test against Argentina with John Beattie, Gary Parker and Peter Wright. Commentary from Bill Johnstone.


This must've been updated within the last 3 hours, it stated MW only when I checked at 5pm.

I know Conor McNamara was at Portgual v Turkey for Five Live last night, but does anyone else know the other details? (I'm guessing at Green and Ingham for Switzerland v Czech Republic, with it being the opening game and all.)

Good commentary from Conor, Darren and Jan last night on the Portugal vs. Turkey game. I chose to listen to 5 Live and turn the sound down on ITV1 as David Pleat was annoying me! Anyway, to be honest, I think that 5 Live are somewhat blessed with a commentary dream team. The only one that I don't really like is Ian Brown, but he's still good at what he does. I suspect it'll be Ingham and Green for the big game tomorrow night, seeing as it's probably the biggest game of this first round of group games!

I've just returned from my firm's Rotterdam office where, but for one (Italian) colleague, they are celebrating the great win of HOLLAND. At least I learned today what they call the Dutch team.

I agree with your point about Green and Ingham Shaun_d. They always seem to be together if they're both at a game.

Anyway...

Euro 2008 - Group B:-
17:00 - Croatia vs. Germany:
BBC Radio 5 Live - Ian Brown, Jon Murray and Steve McClaren.

19:45 - Austria vs. Poland:
BBC Radio 5 Live - Ian Dennis, Simon Brotherton and Graham Taylor.

Good commentary on Croatia/Germany on 5 Live, even though I still feel that McClaren shouldn't be doing the punditry for 5 Live... But there you go!
