About Tony...

Tony Livesey fronts Late Kick Off in the North West of England.

Tony says: "I鈥檓 absolutely delighted to present Late Kick Off. It鈥檚 always exciting to be part of something which means that Football League fans can see more of their local teams on television but in a way they may not have seen before.
