LISTEN: Sports Talk with Mark Philip

Friday, 4 June 2021 at 15:25

By Mark Frost X @Mark_P_reporter

In this week's Sports Talk, Mark Philip takes you through some of the stories covered in the Tameside Reporter.

He speaks to Kiera Bland, a 6x gold medalist in the special olympics, about her time on the track, and Mini Messy's creator Ben Richardson about the importance of sport in pupils' lives following a prolonged absence from physical activity amid the Covid pandemic.

He also has an interview with Stalybridge Celtic manager Simon Haworth, courtesy of media officer Taran Dmahrait, who previews the new season. And there's also an interview with Conrad Prendergast, AFC Fylde's Under 18s manager, who talks about his career in football so far.

And, as usual, Mark's joined by Betfred's Peter Spencer to provide the latest odds ahead of this weekend's Challenge Cup semi-finals.
