Life's a Non-League Club's Pitch - Ipswich Town News

BBC Radio Suffolk’s Life’s a Pitch, which is live over Saturday lunchtime (midday to 2pm), focuses on Non-League Day this week with its founder James Doe amongst the guests. Presenter Mark Murphy is also joined by legend-in-residence Kevin Beattie and football’s youngest pundit Tractorboy.

In addition to Doe, the show will drop in on various local non-league sides, while TWTD’s Phil Ham is taking a week off.

Former Town chief executive Simon Clegg is also set to be on the show live from Buenos Aires ahead of the announcement of the venue for the 2020 Olympics.

Since leaving Portman Road in February, Clegg has been working as a consultant with the Madrid 2020 bid.
