Kelly Cates has worked for ESPN UK, ITV Sport, Talksport and BBC Radio 5 Live covering football from Premier League to the World Cup. George Riley has presented Rugby League and reported and commentated on football, snooker and darts for BBC Sport and BBC Radio 5 Live. Channel 5's first main commentator was Capital Gold and BBC Radio Five Live man Jonathan Pearce. Pearce hosted an array of football from UEFA Cup, Confederations Cup, Internationals to Scottish Football. Pearce left in Summer 2004 to join the Match of the Day team. John Helm was then the main commentator and filled the role left by Pearce, with other commentaries coming from Gary Bloom, Tony Jones and Jon Champion. In 2007 Dave Woods and commentated on nearly every UEFA Cup and Europa League match from 2007–2012, when he was unavailable Steve Bower deputised. Paul Walker is the main commentator for Football League & League Cup highlights although Sky Sports Football League Commentators are used as well on matches that were previously shown live on Sky. Dave Farrar has also commentated, mostly in the Carabao Cup. Channel 5's regular pundits consisted of Pat Nevin who, from 2009, moved to pitchside before games and in the OB truck at half and full-time; Phil Thompson, who commentated on the first ever Football on 5 match between Poland and England with Jonathan Pearce; Stan Collymore who replaced John Barnes from 2010–2012 and was in the studio alongside Jim Rosenthal, and Graham Taylor who is the principal co-commentator. When needed, guests are used as pundits such as Kevin Ratcliffe. Channel 5 has also used other pundits and commentators when needed, such as Ray Houghton, Terry Butcher, Joe Royle, Stewart Robson and John Scales. Uniquely, John Barnes has appeared in every major role for the show: firstly, he hosted the programme then, when Murray was appointed host, Barnes appeared as a co-commentator. He also appeared as a pitchside analyst speaking to resident reporter Dave Beckett, giving his thoughts on the action during the match, at half time and at full-time, and conducting post-match interviews. Barnes left after he became manager of Tranmere Rovers and was replaced by Collymore. He was sacked as manager after a poor run of results, but has never returned to Channel 5 but has since appeared on ESPN UK as a pundit. Channel 5 use a variety of pundits for Football League & League Cup programming however Alan Curbishley, Chris Iwelumo, Clinton Morrison, Michael Gray and Adam Virgo all feature regularly.
