What's your role at Euro 2008?
I'll be editing the 大象传媒 Sport website's Euro 2008 blog - and maybe making the odd contribution myself. With highly-readable and distinctive contributions from our team of reporters, commentators, analysts and producers, I'm sure we'll be able to give everyone a taste of the fare being served up in the twin footballing hotbeds of Austria and Switzerland during June.

What's you role at Euro 2008?
I'll be blogging my way around Austria and Switzerland. My modest hope is to bring you the smiles, the heartache and the undoubted drama of the biggest football tournament in Europe, as well as an in-depth appraisal of the public transport system in the host countries.

What's your role at Euro 2008?
I'll be reporting for 大象传媒 Television and Radio 5 Live.
Based in Austria, I'll be making features for various television programmes (live/highlights shows, Football Focus, online), interviewing managers and players after games, reporting on stories for 5 Live and writing a blog for the 大象传媒 Sport website. We'll be trying to take people's minds off the fact that the Home Nations aren't there by, er, doing features on the teams that beat them to it! So we might have our work cut out....

What is your role at Euro 2008?
I'll be based in Austria for the most part and am down to commentate for Radio Five Live on the three group matches involving Germany, the three involving Spain, the second of the Vienna quarter-finals and then it's to Switzerland for the semi-final in Basle. Can't wait. I will also be breaking new ground in that I'll be writing a blog to go with it all.

What's your role at Euro 2008?
Commentating for Match of the Day. I've six group games to cover, all in Switzerland and featuring all eight countries based there. Once the group matches are out of the way the decision is made as to which commentators go where. Always a tense time!

What's your role at Euro 2008?
I'll be hosting Football Focus every Saturday, presenting World Focus, which is a special show for people watching right across the globe, and hopefully getting involved in the parties in the fan parks across Vienna! I really love the unique buzz and excitement that comes from being at the heart of a big tournament and my challenge to myself is to make sure the atmosphere is conveyed to you guys here online and also on TV.

What's your role at Euro 2008?
I'm one of two Match of the Day programme editors for 大象传媒 TV at Euro 2008, my colleague Andrew Clement being the other. Between us, we will be in charge of the content for all the live and highlights coverage on 大象传媒1 through the tournament. We'll be based in the International Broadcast Centre in Vienna for most of June. I've used this analogy before, but if the programme is a rally car, then the director is the driver steering it - "coming to camera one, run VT, cue Gary" and so on - and the editor is the navigator, supposedly possessed of a cool head and a sense of where we're going. Only with a file of someone else's football research and a self-penned running order instead of a map.

What's your role at Euro 2008?
Put me down as back office, room number 5040, Television Centre. Not quite Orwell's Room 101, but you get the idea. Just kidding. One of my nom-de-plumes within the four walls of 5040 is Euro, which might give you a clue as to why I've been asked to contribute to this blog. With apologies to all your Eurosceptics out there, I love Europe - literature, food, cinema. But most of all I love European football. Sad I know, but there you go.

For over it has been entertaining and informing readers on the rules of the beautiful game.
You Are The Ref poses unusual refereeing dilemmas for the reader, who have to put themselves in the shoes (or boots) of the match officials and come up with answers to various scenarios, testing their knowledge of some of football's weird and .
