Everton "special" Talksport 9:00pm Monday 10th Aug 2015

[The Mighty Quint]

There has just been another piece and fan on about us. They're trying to get a member of the senior team on in the next couple of weeks.

And he spoke very well, was listening to it in the car, Durham said they are trying to get a senior figure at the club to come on and answer some questions.

As someone who has only recently listened to TS on a semi regular basis, could someone explain their relationship to/with Sky to me?

 

[Bluesnapper]

Dont forget his best ex mate Sir Peter Hall.

Off the top of my head they used to be part owned by Sky but are now totally independent , might be wrong though.

Nothing more than sponsorship now, I listen to about 35 hours a week of it. I remember once Ronnie Irani said to a caller them at they (talksport) were in business with SKY and Brazil was straight at him to say that was simply no longer the case, this was a few years ago now though.

Cheers mate. They seem to refer to "our colleagues at Sky", so didnt know if they were part of the group, or it was more a media based "colleagues" thing. TMS refers to Sky as colleagues at times TBF.

Not sure if they were owned by Ulster TV now/recently

And like they're gonna agree to it without the usual pre-vetting/screening processes they insist on?

Dont forget his best ex mate Sir Peter Hall.

My bad - was Peter Hall - not Trevor Nunn.
