Five Live is the sole national radio broadcaster with rights to Premiership coverage.


Last season the station covered an amazing 1,336 games with live commentaries at 405 games, more than any other broadcaster ever.


In 2003/4 the station will again cover every moment of the new campaign from August.


The revamped Midweek Sport on Five programme hosted by the legendary Jonathan Pearce and Susan Bookbinder will be broadcast from different grounds all over the country 聳 starting with the first ever game at the new City of Manchester stadium on 14 August.

Access All Areas extended - some managers hate it but Five Live will carry on the popular Access all Areas format at certain games.


Reporters will be pitch side, with the fans, and by the dug-outs.


Previous programmes have even broadcast the pre-match team talk.


Five Live will keep you posted on the Access All Areas format and on which games will be featured.


Saturday's Sport on Five will continue to be hosted by Mark Pougatch.


The nation's biggest football debate 606 has new names for the new season.


The inimitable Alan Green takes calls on a Saturday evening, Mark "Chappers" Chapman from the Sarah Cox programme on Radio 1 hosts the Sunday programme, and DJ Spoony of Radio 1's Dreem Teem will be at the controls on a Wednesday night.


The famous rant line will also be back in action giving listeners the chance to air their views to the nation about anything they want.


Radio Five Live Controller Bob Shennan said: "The Radio Five Live Premiership coverage is second to non in terms of coverage, expertise and analysis.


"The new season promises a more interactive feel for fans to make their mark either by calling in texting or access through the web to take you closer to the action."
