Kevin Hatchard

Kevin Hatchard has been living the showbiz life of a sports broadcaster and journalist for the past ten years. He spent several seasons travelling the length and breadth of the country as a commentator for BBC Radio Gloucestershire. As a result he is no stranger to glamour, having covered games at Matlock Town and Highworth Town (at the latter game he had to fetch the ball during a report.)

He’s now a bulletin reader for Sportsmedia and a Premier League reporter for Sky News Radio.

Much to his wife’s annoyance Kevin will watch most sports, and no football is too obscure to pique his interest (K-League, anyone?) His enthusiasm for German football began with the day-glo clad Borussia Dortmund side which conquered Europe in 1997, and it was reinforced by the wholehearted displays of Karlheinz Riedle for his beloved Liverpool. He maintains that the Bundesliga is the coolest league in Europe, because it’s so competitive.

Kevin’s betting career has had highs and lows. His exploits on the blackjack tables of Las Vegas are perhaps best forgotten, but backing Senegal to beat France 1-0 at 20/1 in the opening match of the 2002 World Cup still produces a smug smile.
