text: An intriguing picture on Twitter has given an insight into the meticulous preparation of a commentator for a football match. BBC Radio 5 Live commentator Guy Mowbray's notes for Monday night's Premier League clash between Liverpool and Newcastle at Anfield were posted ahead of kick-off. BBC commentator Guy Mowbray's commentary notes for Liverpool's league match against Newcastle . Mowbray has worked for the BBC since 2004 . And Mowbray was not far off from correctly predicting the starting line-ups, naming 19 of the 22 players who took to the field. However, he surprisingly, and incorrectly, predicted that 18-year-old midfielder Cameron Brannagan would make his first Liverpool start. Instead Jordan Ibe returned from injury, while Brannagan was an unused substitute in Liverpool's 2-0 win at Anfield. The notes are thorough from start to finish with numbers for appearances, goals, transfer fees and other interesting tidbits to keep the millions of listeners across the country well informed. Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet's political science degree is noted, as is the fact that Jordon Ibe - though the 19-year-old's first name was spelt incorrectly in the notes as 'Jordan' - was born on Raheem Sterling's first birthday. Also mentioned is Newcastle goalkeeper Tim Krul congratulating Sunderland's Jermain Defoe on his goal in the recent Wear-Tyne derby, Jamie Sterry's Italian grandad, and the fact that Newcastle defender Ryan Taylor is a Liverpool fan. Mowbray, 43, was the youngest ever television commentator on a World Cup final when he covered the 1998 edition for Eurosport. He has worked for the BBC since 2004. Radio 5 Live's commentators now have it harder than ever after a recent change to bring the station's games in line with TV coverage, with just one commentator and one summariser. In previous years there had been two commentators who switched at the mid-point of each half, with a summariser interjecting for 90 minutes. However since 2012 the BBC commentaries have been reduced to a single commentator, putting more pressure on the likes of Mowbray to be better prepared than ever.

Mowbray's notes are more detailed, but less colourful than those produced by another BBC commentator, Nick Barnes, who works for the corporation's Radio Newcastle. Barnes posts some of his notes for Newcastle games on Twitter, complete with his commentary microphone, showing off his artistry as well as his research. The local radio commentator's notebook included hand-drawn kits and national flags for each player, as well as colour-coded notes on the visiting club's form and the predicted line-ups in formation.
