Newcastle United advertise for football commentator

Tickets for Newcastle United fans will be hard to come by this season.

However, there’s a space going in the press box for a volunteer commentator – and they MUST be available for most home games. The club is advertising for a commentator for a “new in-stadium access commentary service”, run by Alan March Sport, at St James's Park.
