Send us a text

John has been announcing for over 20 years, covering Sunderland for a long time and now at 'Boro.
Join Rich Hurst of West Brom and Alan Keegan of Man Utd to talk about his favourite moments as the man with the mic.
He's had Hollywood stars for the half time draw and been insulted by Brian Clough and seen some incredible moments at Ayrsome Park, The Riverside, Roker Park at the Stadium of Light (including THAT day when Alan was poised to present Utd with the Premier League trophy, only for Man City to snatch the title at the death!)
There's also another review of some of the tunes @shootmusic are sending round to stadium DJ's right around the world.

IAN HAWKINS - Burton Albion

Send us a text

Ian Hawkins has been the announcer at Burton Albion for 30 years.
Doubling up on the press team has made it quite the role for him but it's announcing the goals, teams and best of all the subs that he loves most - especially as the subs are sponsored by Doggy Daycare Burton...it's TRUE!
Rich Hurst of West Brom and Alan Keegan of Man United put the questions to Ian and share their own stories about working on the mic at football.
Also, the guys from Shoot Music have sent three more tunes over to be reviewed. They provide music to stadium around the world and the guys judge the tunes by declaring where they put them on their matchday playlists.
