Hi,

Thanks for visiting my personal website. The reason for my site is simple...

I'm looking for more freelance sport commentating / reporting work at weekends. I currently work freelance at Sky News Radio, doing TalkSPORT bulletins at weekends and preparing sports copy / audio for Sky radio stations like Galaxy / Heart. My initial experience came at Rutland Radio where I was the live sportsdesk presenter for 3 years. I still work at Rutland reporting live at games when not freelancing elsewhere.  Rutland radio's website and my 'profile' is linked here.. http://www.rutlandradio.co.uk/sean.php?id=1048

Away from sport reporting, I also present a music show on Rutland Radio. This is the Rutland Chart / New music show every Saturday night at 6pm. I have also presented the popular "From Rutland with Love" Sunday smooch show (!), 'Nothing but the nineties' hour, and the New Year's eve 2007 Party night show.

I've added a few sports reports on the left hand side. There are 8 live match reports for Rutland Radio (including some from 2-3 years ago), 3 Sky Network Sports bulletins (Premier Lge updates every 15mins on Saturday afternoons), the classified results check (Feb 08), 4 'studio' based sports reports from the Rutland sports desk 2005-6, and three TalkSPORT sport bulletins from the Sky News Centre. There are also 19 music presenting clips, and also my appearance on Clips of the week, which wasn't my fault I hasten to add!!

I've also added 2 CVs via the links above. One is my professional CV which details the work I do during the week (legal publishing) and the other shows my radio experience (needs updating!)

The main area of work i'm looking for in the radio industry is football based update / commentary work. I have a good knowledge of all sports but football is my forte. I wrote my University dissertation on football hooliganism / ethnicity in French Football and still hold a great knowledge of European football. I was a season ticket holder at Malaga CdeF for a year and still have subscriptions to French sport paper, L'Equipe and also the Spanish paper, Marca.

I've also attended other games around Europe and now follow England wherever they play.. I've travelled to at least 1 game (mostly more) at Real Madrid, Inter Milan, Roma, Juventus, Barcelona, Rayo Vallecano, Sporting Lisbon, Grenoble FC, FC Lyon and Cordoba. I'm a member of EnglandFans and have seen England play at home tens of times, and away at Stade de Geneve (England v Argentina), Frankfurt (England V Paraguay), Nuremberg (England V Trinidad and Tobago), Amsterdam (Holland V England), Barcelona (Andorra V England), Tel Aviv (Israel V England), Moscow (Russia V England), Vienna (Austria V England), Paris (France V England), Zagreb (Croatia V England), Minsk (Belarus V England), and Berlin (Germany V England).

Anyway, do take a time to listen to my broadcasts on the left, do have a look at my CV, and if you're interested in using me at your station, please do get in touch via mobile 0772 595 2466
