Naked Sports Show Obscure Sports Special - Ipswich Town News

Joining Phil Pritchard and The Vulture on this week's Naked Sports Show (ICR FM 6-6.30pm) are well-known local radio broadcaster, Town fan and GAA aficionado Graham Blackburn and genuine Australian Rowena Mackie. They'll be taking a look at some of the less mainstream sports which don't get a lot of attention on these shores.

So, if you've ever wanted to know about Australian Rules football, Gaelic football, hurling or anything else suggested by the listenership, tune in. The hurling discussion will inevitably revolve around the question; hurling goalkeepers, are they mental or what?

That's not to say the more usual sporting suspects won't get a mention, including (but not limited to) Padraig Harrington's Open triumph, England's miserable Second Test defeat to South Africa and the welcome return to the Town of prodigal glovesman Richard Wright Wright Wright.

And there's the unedifying spectacle of the Vulture's Venture versus Toddler's Tip to deal with as well. Feel free to email the show with your opinion on these subjects or any sporting issue at nakedsportsshow@icrfm.co.uk.

The Naked Football Show is taking a break for the summer, but Phil and Graham will be presenting ICR's Monday breakfast programme instead. Contributions on all things football, sport or anything else most welcome, especially requests for music, no matter how diverse. More details here.

ICR can be heard in the immediate Ipswich area on 105.7FM and has an eclectic array of programmes, which include almost any style of music you can think of promoting local bands and musicians, as well as morning and magazine shows, in addition to foreign language programmes in Polish, Portuguese, Cantonese, Farsi and Hindi.

If you're not in the Ipswich area, the show can be heard live online at http://www.icrfm.co.uk, while the programme will be available as a podcast via TWTD tomorrow. Last week's show is available as an MP3 here or via iTunes.
